Agreed that QOTSA are top notch. You are in for a treat, saw them april 1st and the s/t album kicks sooooo much ass live. They played someone's in the wolf during the encore...now that my friends is live music right there.
Trust me, a lot of people just bash Coheed and Cambria cause they have never seen or heard them. Once you see them live, then I know that a lot of the opinions around here will change. Trust me. And believe me when I say this, Coheed and Cambria will steal the show. I promise.
Actually, it's the exact opposite. People are speaking on the fact that they have seen or at least heard them. You're certainly entitled to your opinion, but instead of trying to push it on everyone you should realize that you are in the overwhelming minority (think 0.5-1%) and just keep it to yourself since nobody is going to agree with you.
Qotsa are awful. Listen, people are going to have their opinions but anyone who has actually seen coheed and cambria live know what they bring to the table. They have more energy at their shows than other concert i have ever been to. Go look up some live stuff on youtube, mainly the song welcome home and delirium trigger.

You are THAT guy that always starts those coheed threads? Right?
Just under a different name, correct?
Anyway.... I'll give anything a try before I can it. And this band is beyond terrible
My musical taste is all over the place. Like someone else said, them opening the Jones Beach show might have me driving down to Philly. And Jones Beach is 10 minutes from my house
Gonna see Queens play their debut album live tomorrow
I would like to do the same on May 17th (London, UK) but unfortunately their concert is already sold out. And the ticket price was only 27.35 pounds. :x

keep a close eye on the secondary market for tickets.... here is stub hub mainly..not sure what it is in Greece, but when I saw them in Boston in March...there were tons of empty seats up in the balcony area. Twas a shame. Scalpers are buying tix to drive up demand, but in all reality, its hurting the bands/fans. Scalpers are getting stuck with tickets more than we know.

Coheed have a few ok tunes and I'm sure are a pretty solid live band, they're just not on the same level as at least 4 out the other 5 bands on the tour. I don't mind the guys voice, but there's something decidedly generic about alot of their stuff that I've heard.
I prefer Mastodon and TMV over QotSA, but Josh Homme by himself will be more entertaining than a Coheed set would be.

Thank you very much for the advice. I usually do that but always end up not buying tickets because they are too expensive compared to the original price. Let's see. How more expensive than 27.35 pounds can a Queens of the Stone Age ticket get?

Maybe I can go outside of the venue and see what will happen. Are you going to this concert? By the way, right now the cheapest standing ticket is sold for 77 pounds on the internet. :shock:

The Queens are by far the best live rock band being discussed in this thread. They harken back to the 70's and the way rock is supposed to be. With that said, these guys were great http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqsNR5pI6bw. Even strung out Cedric sounds better than Cornell. Cornell behind a rock band doesn't cut it for me. Only with studio wizardry
:shock:
pro shot?!?!?!
what is this from???
and...SpinTheBlackCircle74
You're in for a treat. Only thing bad about QOTSA is they dont play long enough!!!
HOLY FUCK, SOMEONE ELSE IS AS AMAZED AS THIS AS ME? PRO SHOT OMG, I'VE GOT A FEW BOOTS BUT THEY ARE SUCKY QUALITY, I GOT 1 SOUNDBOARDISH ONE THOUGH.
Dam, Badmotorfinger is one of the greatest albums, if you put is vs ANY PJ record it beats it, Ten is maybe on the same level.
As with SG vs TMV they are two different bands really, I believe Cornell has a lot more range and probably vocal talent/training. Cedric can hit some notes and sing some really nice stuff but I'm not a singing expert at all so I could be talking trash but I just feel Cornell has a lot more soul and emotion in his voice and training. Cedric has a cool accent though.
You can't watch this and not be impressed. Bottom line is coheed is going to dominate this tour.
Warren is the best part of that video... Overall the whole thing just seems too theatrical, not really my jam.
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
I can't get past the lead singer of Coheed and Cambria's voice. A few notes, and my ears start screaming in horrible protest. It's great that you like them, Unknown. I don't know how many live shows you go to. I've seen Coheed and Cambria live (briefly) on Warped Tour. I could name many, many bands that play with as much or poor energy, and who are quite frankly better live bands.
The worst comment on the thread was the one stating Cedric from The Mars Volta's voice is better than Cornell's. That is possibly the most comical thing I have read on this board since the guy who posted daily threads about the band Smashmouth. I like The Mars Volta. Frances the Mute, for me, is one of the best albums of the last ten years (and far superior to De-loused). I generally like Cedric's voice. But he NEVER belongs in the same conversation with Chris Cornell. Few in the history of rock do. I just saw Cornell on Tuesday night, and even at his age and after chain smoking for many years, his vocal range is simply jaw-dropping.
As for The Mars Volta, everything they've done since they fired Theodore has been sub-par, and their live shows aren't nearly as good. And now they've fire Pridgen too. I met Cedric and Omar backstage briefly when they played Outside Lands, and they are fucking pretentious assholes. Their music is suffering for it.
It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.
Well, here is a clip that is a little less theatrical. This song is off their first album. You can't deny the energy from the crowd! Yeah, I agree, the vocals may take a little time to get used to. At first I was the same way, but once you start actually listening to a whole album of theirs, I think you will change your mind. Take a look at this video and this song.
Again, musicianship is good, but I don't really dig what they're doing.
And PS, Nickeblack has energetic crowds, doesn't make them a good band.
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
cornell on his worst day sounds better that either of those singers. Coheed and mars volta have THE worst singers around. Really terrible high pitched uninteresting voices IMO. Queens of the stone age however, now there's a real fucking opening band.
Soundgarden doesn't have an album as good as Deloused In The Comatorium. The Mars Volta do pretty well for having an awful singer :roll:
Superunknown might be the best rock album of the 90s, and Badmotorfinger aint far behind.
Yeah. I remember the last Coheed 'street team' member that came on here and did this exact same kind of promotion. (probably the same dude).
Anyway it worked. I checked them out last time and it was not my cup of tea. I don't want to be disrespectful as we all have our own musical taste, but to me they were terrible.
Well I've just checked out those two videos and my ears are hurting. Even Warren Haynes couldn't prevent me from turning that shit off after a minute or so.
Now I'm sure if I continued to explore that band, I would perhaps find something that I like from them.
But the attitude of the OP makes me more inclined to try and avoid that band at all cost.
mastodon, qotsa, followed by soundgarden would blow my fucking head off seeing that live.
Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
Butthead: Huh huh.
As for the discussion at hand, Soundgarden was largely known to be hit or miss live, you either get the good or the bad, but you dont know until the show starts. TMV are widely regarded as a GREAT live band(which they are IMO), I have heard C&C are actually pretty great live as well..
That being said, I can see Soundgraden being much, much tighter and getting the good Soundgarden out every night now that they are older, wiser and more mature and have been rehearsing like crazy for the past few years, I see it hard to match their live show, as when they were ON they were fucking ON.
Also whoever said Cedrics voice in uninteresting, you are crazy, sure I can get not liking it, not diggin it but saying its uninteresting is CRAZY

I saw them several years ago in a mall parking lot. They weren't that good. Comparing them to SG is akin to comparing filet mignon[SG] to Alpo[CaC].
