Well damn! Fontaines D.C. sold out a lot quicker than I expected. Signed up for the waiting list. If nothing else I'll grab one on secondary.

Tears for Fears on Friday night at the Fontainebleau in Vegas, fantastic show! Stage show, lighting, video, and the band were great, and Roland & Curt also sounded fine and their voices were as good as they were 40 years ago.
Then the Eagles at the Sphere on Saturday night. This was a good show as well, though the "band" isn't as lively. I don't guess they ever really were though. Everyone who sang sounded fine - Henley, Timothy Schmit, Deacon Frey, VInce Gill, and Joe Walsh, though Joe seemed to slur his words a bit more than I remembered from the last time I saw him (solo in '91). If you closed your eyes Deacon sounded almost exactly like Glenn. He and Gill split the Glenn Frey songs in general. The videos for the Eagles show were impressive, though I thought the U2 show used the technology better overall.

I thought Deacon left a couple tours ago. He's back?

I think he briefly left in 2022 but still guest with them for most shows, and since 2023 he's been a regular member.

David Gilmour at MSG tonight
Since September
Live Music
Cake - Moody Amphitheatre (awesome)
Paul Kemplerer - Monk's Jazz (good mid week show)
The Brew -Las Palomas (reduced band, but decent mid week show)
Spoon - LCL (really good show)
New bars for us
Caroline's Upstairs - great bar, food downstairs is meh +
Zanzibar - great food, beverages, and vibe
The Edge - good food and beverages, bland vibe
De Nada - lots of tequila and worst tacos in Austin
The "live music capital of the world" isn't what it used to be. The bars are better but stupid expensive.

I saw them on their Tipping Point tour a couple of summers ago. They played a lot of new material. Highly recommended.

Nice! I'm curious to see how different the set list is tonight
Flew in for ZZ Top tonight and Turnpike Troubadours on Sat. It is snowing in ABQ New Mexico
ZZ played 80 minutes in front of 1,600 people. $90 floor ticket and we had the only 2 seats on our row 13. There were 3 floor sections. Venue seats 8,000 but stage was in center of floor and back half of arena was empty.

I've got an extra GA for Highly Suspect in Houston at bayou place tonight if anyone's interested
I'm over 50 so must get medical clearance to attend a rock show in the GA section.
Man that's sad. They packed the Woodlands last time I saw them, although some people were there to see Skynyrd.

They are completely out of band names.
My Chemical Romance
Baby Metal
Bowling For Soup
Panic at the Disco
These are all terrible band names yet better than what you just mentioned.

My brother and I went to see Linkin Park in Dallas last Friday and they put on a really darn good show. Emily Armstrong has a great set of pipes and can really sing. She gets pretty close to Chester's range, although not quite there.
I was really impressed.

Will any of you be joining me at Trees tomorrow night for the Jack White show?
Were you able to score tickets? Saw when it was announced yesterday. Should be a great one and I assume extremely crowded.Know Your Enemy said:

That's the only way I'll be able to get in.
Nice. Have some Dallas friends that tried but said the code didn't work for them and got shut out.
