    Beyond Me is such a great fucking song. A highlight on an incredible album top to bottom.

    Yea man. 

    We got 3 almost flawless albums this month from Rival Sons, FF and QOTSA. Great month for music.

    I didn't care much for the QOTSA album. I do like the new Clutch that recently came out, though. That Rival Sons album has been on repeat daily in my house. I've loved them for many years but this is their best album to date. Thrilled they have another one called Lightbringer coming out this fall. So much better than cramming everything onto a double album.

    Anyone else going to be in Milwaukee on Saturday?  My wife and I will be there and live only 5 min from Veterans Park.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    I'm in the same boat, the new Foo Fighters quickly grew on me, and I'm really enjoying it alot.  I've spun the new QoTSA album and it's not sticking with me.   I find that a shame, because I really enjoyed the last one (Villains).   That one grew on me quick and it's one of my favourite QoTSA albums.

    Every time I listen to the new album, I like it even more.  And Rest makes me cry just about every time....perfect closer to such an emotional album.

    An easy album to like only after a couple of listens. But the packaging does my head in, I like to read all the cover notes when I first listen but I just wanted to fire this in the bin.

    I think it’s their best since Wasting Light.  I actually just put on their discography today during an 8-hour road-trip.  Wasting Light really pops over One by One, In Your Honor and Echoes.

    Just got the email with their summer tour dates and presale code. Two shows in NYC in July.

    I wonder if Freese will stay with them, or move on to other things. I could see him sticking w/ them for another year / tour. From what I've seen, they seem to be having fun.

    They are playing Fenway, which I think would be closest to you if you are interested in seeing them.

    I might try to pick up a couple of tickets for Cincinnati. We have never seen them, but my wife said she would like to at some point.

    Saw that... didn't even check the day of the week, it's not really on my radar at the moment. 

    I'll consider if as the date gets close & there's still tickets available.

    Hershey is the closest to me. least it's in the summer so kinda doable.

    Pretty awesome that they got The Hives to open for them although I'd rather see them headline in a smaller joint.

  • Planning on Fenway, but was hoping for Bangor like they were going too in 2021. Never seen them so gotta go once.

    Not thrilled about stadium shows but then again they didn’t schedule one near me anyway.

    I heard not too many good things about Hershey Park Stadium so I think I might pass on this one :neutral:
