.. in 3 years and guess what I went to see?

The Offspring! hooah!

Hah it actually wasnt too bad, though the opening bands.. The Start and some other lame ass band were terrible, the Offspring were not too terrible.

We saw them at the Universal Ampitheater and I have to say shows are a lot different than the ones I used to go to. We were like 3 floors up on some balcony, and all I could see of the band was from the pyrotechnics or the tv screens.

Man.. anyway the music was fine, but damn, i miss shows that were up close and personal. I've gone from hanging out with Chuck from Good Riddance to 3rd floor binocular action on the Offspring. How sad.

I'm gonna check out Ten Foot Pole in a very cranked place next month and I'm pretty sure I'll have regrets not to see them from further than 3 feet away.

They've changed drummers (dude their first drummer was awesome) a couple of times I think, they've changed bassists a lot of times (including a canadian who died). Now the crazy Steve(guitar) has left the band, the only one left from the beginning is Dennis, the frontman.

I've got, in advance, their new album (supposed to be released in June) and listened to it and it's really good to me. I don't have any problem with the fact I got this "illegally", since I'm gonna buy it when it's out.

If you wish I can put it (50 Mb) to a server for you to download it

I went to see Billy Corgans first ever solo acoustic show last night. It was really fucking good. All the songs were about Chicago, he played no old songs, and no songs that are gonna be on his new album. The songs were unique to the show, had a folky bluegrassy feel to them. I guess they are gonna release the show on DVD/CD later on.

I dont think I ever got the email. My filter might have thought it was junk? You can use the private messaging thing here to send it to me.

Weird. I was waiting, thinking maybe Email from france takes longer or something

We went to check them (Ten Foot Pole) out last sunday, and it was great. There wasn't too much of a big crowd (something like 50 persons only) but it was cool. We got to talk to them too, they're really nice. The new guitarist makes faces when he plays and he's funy. The new drummer is really young and nice and always smiling and happy. And the new bassist (well he's been there for 5 years now) si a really nice guy. He's the one who addressed us first (he was looking for hash, how could he know I was a narc).
Kim and him found point to relate to since they both lived in Santa Barbara. I think Kim was happy to talk to Americans (she rarely meets real americans - those who still live in the US - in France ) and I believe they were happy to find another american to talk to.

As for the show, it was rocking hard. Old school songs (AAD opened the show, Fiction, Daddy, John...) and some from their latest album.

The only reproach I can have is when Dennis said "If you don't know who Rachel Corey was go to our site and check out" and then at the following song "we want to dedicate this song to Leigh Lawson, our former bassist, he had a too big heart and passed away a couple of years ago. Now I'm sure he's watching us". All this morbidity was too much. It was a bit like "we are cool guys cuz we write songs about people who passed away".
I don't know. I found this a bit tacky.

Apart from that, awesome !
