We expect more. Jane’s could do better, so much better.

Billy Corgan’s Smashing Pumpkins are an absolute embarrassment live. Stay away.

“One thing I picked up on didn’t happen on the stage. It happened at merch. I’ve seen thousands of merch tables in my day. Very rarely have I seen what I’m about to tell you. During RED’s set, Welch made his way to the Love and Death table. I saw countless groups of fans go from banging their heads to running – literally – to Love and Death’s merch table. Mid-set. Mid-song. Amazing stuff. This dude is a star. Period. When you’re a star, that’s how people react.”

Brian Fair of western Massachusetts’ Shadow Fall rejoined All Knowing Force this past week to discuss the band’s new album, Fire From The Sky. This album, which we have no doubt will be killer, is set for a May 15th release date. Darius also went and saw their tour opener at the Exit/In in Nashville. Check it out!

This is a great band and if you’re like me and have never given them your proper attention, now would be a great time to start.

It’s been a good week so far. When you get to see the best live band in metal twice in three days, it’s safe to say that things are going pretty well.

Jane’s Addiction played a series of sold out shows at Los Angeles’ Ford Amphitheatre in April of 1989. This week, they returned for a two night engagement.

Not only was it worth $50, but I think this tour is one of the very best values currently on the road.

Andrew here. We’re are STILL without power. We’re also dealing with some technical bugs. BUT, let me say, I’m converted. Nonpoint is RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING live. Enjoy Darius’ review.

I have always loved Scott Weiland. Hopefully next time he’ll be in the mood to play more from his excellent catalog of songs.
