USCHO Music Thread: We All Have A Crush On Shirley Manson

[MissThundercat]

Heavy on Run the Jewels this morning, which led to Outkast, which led to System of a Down.

The seven chord progressions that dominate music.

I have a new appreciation for Nine Inch Nails.

Went and saw Margo Price in Detroit last night. Even though my favorite song of hers did not make the set list, it was still a pretty great show and only 35 bucks for standing room. No one who attended could've honestly said they didn't get their money's worth and then some.

The crumbling remains of Depeche Mode was on Colbert and good god that was bad.

Dr. Mrs., who loved them, was pleading with the screen, "it's okay to stay home, count your royalties and play with your grandchildren!"

I saw that on the DVR and thought, "yikes, no way this is going all be good. Delete."

Been running through a mix today of Black Flag, Minutemen, The Stooges, Bad Brains, Germs and H?sker D?. I like/love them all but The Stooges imho are criminally underrated.

Agreed, and that is a great mix. I'd add Circle Jerks and Minor Threat, who get my vote for criminally underrated.

This is great too.

I saw yellow card at a small venue with I think motion city and one other band way back when. One of the best concerts I have ever been to. That said, I'm not entirely sure old me has the energy to attend a concert like young me did.

Bought tickets after sitting on it for 2 days, so going to see them at the Armory in July. Since wife and I are both old and she's 5'3", splurged and got seats in one of the balconies rather than general admission on the floor so she has a shot of actually being able to see the stage.

My old-*** self saw a few shows last time I was home in the fall. Saw Echo & The Bunnymen, Bahuaus, the Gear Daddies and would have seen Duran Duran but they cancelled. I imagine eventually those days will be over but I hope not anytime soon.

I've officially hit the age where I buy overpriced tickets to see over the hill bands from my youth. Saw Goo Goo Dolls this past fall in Ames. Am highly considering getting tickets to see Yellowcard in the Twin Cities this summer.

Went to a Goth Prom last night. The music was fantastic, including Depeche Mode, Joy Division, NIN, Bauhaus, She Wants Revenge, Evanescence, and more.

I have been on a steady diet of Rush on Pandora, with the setting on the deep catalog. My observation is Peart wrote a lot of forgettable songs with lame lyrics. But, he's an incredible performer on all of them.

I was across from the Plaza. Seedy AF. That is truly the Fremont Experience.

Ever stay at the Trop? I've only heard that it's like the Chelsea in 1967. Sweep up the eyeballs at the end of the night.

Never stayed at the Trop, although we've occasionally gambled there. During one of our March "mega-Vegas" trips about ten years ago we actually stayed at Hooter's Casino (now the OYO, formerly the San Remo) right next door to the Trop, and did a fair amount of gambling there, but otherwise we haven't spent much time in that casino. Hooters was only about $29/night, and the PAC 12 was still playing at the MGM at that time.

By that time they had already slapped a new coat of paint on the Trop, so a lot of the flavor of the old Trop had been removed.
