Saw 3 Doors Down and Candlebox last night and apparently Candlebox is hanging it up and retiring. Well it also happened to be the last show of the tour so we got to see them say goodbye. They sounded great as well as 3DD.

looks like they almost played the full debut album, that's cool.

We saw them do the whole thing back in 2019 for the 25th year tour.

Saw Pat Benatar last night at ACL Moody Theater. For a 70 year old, she still rocks. He voice is generally lower than it was back in the day, but just as melodic. And she can still hit the high notes every now and then. Neil Giraldo still rocks.

They finished with Heartbreaker, which was awesome. They segued into Ring of Fire and absolutely killed it. More of that please!


I saw her 2 years ago and would say exactly what you said, including the Ring of Fire finish. Some time after I saw her she declared she wouldn't sing "Best Shot" apparently to protest… something. Did she bring it back?
No.

I read she's not performing it because of her stance on gun violence. I would have liked to hear her perform it.

Good to hear! I've never seen her and she is at the Sands this year.

Never saw Candlebox for some reason but they've always been a guilty pleasure of mine. Didn't know they were still touring and retiring. Pretty awesome you caught their last show ever from what it sounds like.

Pregaming for sleep token.
I'd be willing to bet there are more chicks in line than dudes. I see couples and groups of chicks, but no groups of dudes.

I don't know I'd spot him from a mile away.

Easy tattoo recognition, pretty tall. Cowboy hat, blue jeans and T-shirt is pretty common for him

Me too, but I just mean it's weird seeing him "out of context". Like that picture of him with the shopping bag that people post sometimes.

hah. Bargains, all that I see…

The Facebook page master het has a bunch of out of context shots of him. Just a normal dude.

My aunt and uncle live in vail (where he's lived for a while now) and I've had dreams where I'm visiting them for the weekend and see him like at city market and **** lol.

I met the band minus him in Denver 2017, I totally meant to ask lars if het just drove down for the show or what?

Candlebox opened for Rush?! No way. Welp, I don't have to be ashamed to admit I like them a lot anymore. Total validation. lol

Day trip to Phoenix for Rob Zombie/Alice Cooper. Did the RZ M&G, which was way worth the value, it is very rare for someone to actually sign stuff as artists just prefer to offer a BS soundcheck and a signed photo if you get lucky. Been a fan of his horror movies as well as his music since high school so it was great to see that the man is really nice.

Place was more packed than I thought. Both Rob and Alice did about an hour each. Alice's set was definitely more light compared to when he does his own tours and I'd like to see Rob play a longer set for once, but still a great evening. Didn't really like Filter, Ministry were ok.

Anybody else seeing Wilco in Dallas Thursday? Looking forward to it.

Been since the Ghost is Born Tour that I saw them but they still put out quality music and sound damned good for being this old.

But seriously, Rob came to my store to sign autographs for the Hellbilly Deluxe album release. My recollection was that he was shockingly short, like around 5'6". I even texted one of my old co-workers and he said the exact same thing. I wasn't trying to "body shame" jorgerr but he is significantly shorter than Rob in that pic so it took me by surprise.

That's cool meeting Rob.

Though I'd have to bite my tongue to not ask how he could direct such a solid film like The Devil's Rejects and then churn out absolute ****e for the next 15 years.

I understand what Google says but I stood next to the man multiple times and my memory is completely different. Of course it's been more than 2 decades and I've killed a lot of brain cells in that time. That's why I double checked with someone else who was there for one of those meetings. Weird thing is that his memory matched mine.

Saw Candlebox at the Texas World Speedway in BCS circa 1996 lol. I recall Scott Weiland had one of his drug slips a few days before and they mentioned him just before playing Far Behind

I saw them replace AIC opening for Metallica in 1994 because Layne Staley ended up in rehab. Is that what you're thinking of?
