  • I also had tickets to that tour. Luckily I was able to catch Rage on their previous tour and the Beasties finally in 2004.


    I think the BB are working on a new album..once MCA beats his cancer they will tour..hopefully...and i will catch them then...always liked the BB..shit i remember their first tape came out when i was in like 5th or 6th grade..I played the shit out of it....good times!

    nah...hate it..well..these days I do. I used to LOVE Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul and GOOD rap...the only GOOD rap these days that doesnt talk about killing, beating bitches..and doesnt have some stupid effects driven production is Mos Def
    check out aesop rock... one of the few hip hop performers i listen to these days... has a nice old school flow, beats, lyrics, etc

    im no hip hop expert.... but i know what i dont like... and its 95% of the mainstream shit i hear at bars and clubs

  • the funniest shit in this thread are the people saying..."Ted sounds better in clubs than stadiums"...what the fuck is that supposed to mean???!!!!...that's like saying "yeah i sing real good in the shower but when i'm in a big room i sound like shit"...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....give me a fucking break....it doesn't translate well...that's some of the most stupid shit i have ever heard.

    You make the stupidest, most ignorant comments out of ANYBODY on this board. Sometimes I want to reach through the screen and hit you. Some bands don't translate well in a large room, okay dummy? It's not difficult to understand.

    be very fucking careful who you make threats to buddy...you may see me at a pre-party one day and regret those words....and as far as ignorance and stupidity goes, you seem to have an intimate relationship with these words.

    yeah..i guess i didn't realize the importance of the acoustics when it comes to the full Ted Leo, master musician, experience.....give me a fucking break...it's not like he's traveling with the Boston Pops! it's guitars, bass & drums like everyone else...see the "vibe" doesn't translate to big venues becuase there aren't enough enthusiastic Ted Leo fans to fill a fucking stadium...so i am sure his club shows are much better. :roll: :roll: :roll: :lol::lol::lol:

    and i'm stupid because i don't "understand" :lol::lol::lol: ahhhhhhh man..that's shit is funny...some people...i tell ya... :lol::lol:

    What is up with all the displeasure?

    I never understand these threads about the opening band. Even if you don't like the opening band pearl jam generallly 95% of the time picks a band with integrity. Sure maybe the music is not your thing, but you don't have to be there for them. There are other things you can do while they are onstage.

    Do we all go to a pearl jam show to see the opening band or pearl jam? I could care less who the opener is. Sure it is nice when it is anotehr band i like or a new band i have not heard of that i can get into, but when it is all said and done I'm just there for pearl jam.

    I hope those that don't like ted leo at least give them respect when they are onstage and don't boo them or anything like that.

    I was so embaressed to be a pearl jam fan when i saw sonic youth open and a bunch of folks around me were booing them..... WTF?

    it would seem you didn't really read through this thread all the way....i have already said Ted is OK...i saw him 4 times last year..never boo'd him once...in fact i kinda rocked out with him in Mansfield becuase i was front row and sooooo thrilled to be up that close...but 4 times is enough and i'd really like to see a new band in Philly...sure i know i can stay in the lot and smoke/drink more...but i love music and i like to check out the opener because i know it's a band that PJ supports/likes which makes me think they are worthy of a listen.. so i make it a point to be there for every opener...MMJ was awesome when i saw PJ in Boston in '06....all i'm saying is hold the mayo, i want mustard..OK?...cool!...sorry Ted!

    Bring on Dr. Dog--- they tore it up at Musikfest in Bethlehem last night! Seriously, when a band can sell every single piece of merch (every t-shirt and cd) at a show, you know they're on the fast track to greatness

    Or, they need to find a new merch guy who can better estimate demand!

    Yeah, ah .. why are people still flipping out for opening act's? How are you like @ the theaters when those commercials or trailer's come up? Many don't even show up for them. Many are still talking on the phone's, text messaging & bothering other's. It's just an opening act. Mama mia!! :shock:

    I'll be in Philly & I really don't care who is opening. Jebus or Lucifer. Even a vs match between the two. I'm there for Pearl Jam. That's it. I am paying, to see my band @ work. To experience their music. To have a great time. All the name calling here about this is pretty insane. Giving lip about who's opening. Who give's a shit! You think everybody was happy to see Liam Finn open for Eddie Vedder during the whole West Coast & East Coast '08, and East Coast '09 .. again? huh?

    Pearl Jam will be there to rock your fucking sock's off. That's it! If Ted Leo is opening & you don't like them, get out. Go out & get some air. Drink a few shot's, smoke em if you got'em. Single guy? Check out the beautiful looking ladies of Philly. Flirt around. It's a party. Going off, about an opening act, is fucked up. I'm sorry! That's fucked up!
