    surprised at the votes for PJ in NYC. Not even in the top 5 PJ gigs this year let anyone all gigs. Awful crowd, lifeless. Best thing about it was the venue. Here's my top 4:

    Gaslight Anthem at Shepherds Bush Empire, London
    Placebo at The Olympia in Dublin, Ireland
    Pearl Jam at the Maracana, Brasil
    Faith No More at the Roundhouse, London

    various other good but not great gigs this year. The music scene seems a bit dull at present. In this weird and fucked up world where's the anger and the articulate protest?
    London Wembley Arena - Oct 28, 1996; Manchester Evening News Arena - Jun 04, 2000; ; ; Cardiff Arena - Jun 06, 2000; Seattle Key Arena - Dec 09, 2002; ; London Astoria - Apr 20, 2006; Portland Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall - Jul 20, 2006; Berlin Wuhlheide - Sep 23, 2006; London Wembley Arena - Jun 18, 2007; London Shepherd's Bush Empire - Aug 11, 2009; Berlin Wuhlheide - Aug 15, 2009; London O2 Arena - Aug 18, 2009; London Hyde Park - June 25, 2010; Berlin Wulheide - June 30, 2010; Alpine Valley PJ20 East Troy - Sep 03, 2011; Alpine Valley PJ20 East Troy - Sep 04, 2011; Berlin O2 Arena - July 04, 2012; Barclays Center, Brooklyn - October 18, 2013; Barclays Center, Brooklyn - October 19, 2013; San Siro, Milan - June 20, 2014; Milton Keynes - July 11, 2014; Central Park, New York - September 26, 2015; Maracana, Rio de Janeiro -November 22, 2015

    5. Bush - Been waiting 6+ years to see these guys!


    Bush Throws down, saw them a couple years ago in Indy with Soundgarden and SG probably should have went on before Bush, Gavin was too full of energy to follow.

    Seriously! I had a nice elevated side stage vantage point, wieird for a small club show, but was great. And he went all out on every song! Even walked around the audience during one of them. Will definitely see them again

    That Puscifer show really was remarkable wasn't it?

    I don't find the music to be too accessible at first glance / listen, but the more I listen, the more in awe I am of their songwriting.

    Add in the incredible stage show, and the result is one of the most remarkable live shows I've ever witnessed.

    Grand Canyon sucked me in from the get-go as did Agostina, but the others took a bit of time to worm their way in.

    Now I'm full-on in love.

    I was trying not to judge. I remember going to a Foo Fighter show at DV8 in Seattle when they did a smaller venue tour. Part way through the show Grohl took off his top layer to reveal a white t-shirt on which he'd written BU$H in black sharpie. Pretty funny.
