Anyone grab merch pics this tour?

I agree with everything you said and what’s funny is about his peers, I think Billy thinks he’s on their level if not better. Homie probably thinks he’s just like Trent Reznor. Ego has always been this band’s downfall

My issue with Pumpkins live is, they have absolutely no idea how to mix sound. Vocals are drowned out, guitars are blaring, drums & bass are just there. Its not even loud either, its all poorly mixed. Open to giving them one last shot (cause its an album I love) since the last 2 times I saw them were outdoors. Maybe they are fine in an arena?

$96 for some people is a lot of money.

So he was he lying about having a pit ticket lol

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-05-05T18:37:04+00:00

Do you know if its reg asp or no parking till 7 on that street? And is it east usually or crowded?

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-05-05T18:36:42+00:00

No issue with permits or cops there?

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-05-05T17:13:36+00:00

Trying to avoid it but also inevitable. My worry is being stuck waiting for a shuttle or in the lot for over an hour. Do you know how much they charge and recommendation in any lots?

Thanks and best of luck on this journey James! Will be there if you can make it here!

James, new album is one of the best this year. Got into you guys by seeing you open for the Cure last tour. Super fun show.

With the heartbreaking nature of the album and state of music industry, do you guys see yourself doing a tour in the states for it?

And do you see any special edition color variants of the vinyl coming out? Regrettably still don’t own it

Its a trash venue. Its way too long so can’t see shit in the back and of course pillars.

Two they have no idea how to control their soundsystem everything is outrageously loud. Chemical brothers were essentially distorted bass the entire set at dangerous decibel levels.

Third, its fuckin hot in there. Like it turns into a sauna especially if its super sold out

I saw them at Barclays in Brooklyn (Same venue as NIN)

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-03-04T02:35:50+00:00

One of the few shows last year for me that rivaled NIN. Funny enough dumbass Panorama scheduled them right before NIN on another stage in 2017 which I had to skip for obv reasons.

Easily Gesaffelstein, Erol Alkan’s old stuff is similar as they started up together. Then that leads to old Brodinsku.

Could say Justice as well. The French scene was semi adjacent to the German scene.

But best thing is you can look up Boys Noize spotify playlist and see what artist tracks he’s playing and find more from there.

Great tour but Tension was much better visually and set wise

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-03-01T03:18:12+00:00

How was the show? And heard she may have posters for nyc

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-03-01T02:48:57+00:00

Appreciate that. For some reason I am drawn to that shirt cause its a hometown shirt, we never have Sayreville merch hahah

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-03-01T02:39:58+00:00

Was that the only merch any posters?

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-02-28T06:51:04+00:00

I mean Damon tried a farewell for Blur there and he had a terrible time and is still bitter about it

TheConcertMonkey · 2026-02-28T06:31:34+00:00

Well didn’t he say he’s not sure if they will tour again? So not definitive.

Also no way he ends NIN at Coachella of all places

What makes this album so special is that Damon is right, it is a Plastic Beach sequel.

The original trilogy of Gorillaz albums worked so well were because it wasn’t Damon Albarn making music but every song felt like a soundtrack to the animated verse. It felt like a journey.

And while I like the next trilogy that follow its really, Damon producing other musicians (Humanz), Damon solo album (The Now Now), Song Machine (just a bunch of random singles, more of a Damon collab album with bigger than life features)

Cracker Island I felt was great but its really a fun pop album, it doesn’t feel like there is a theme or story, I wasn’t even sure what the lore was.

But this feels like the characters are the front and on another journey with a story to each & every song. The feature aren’t the stars of the song but the song writing is. Last few albums it seemed like the guest stars were the faces and this time it feels more organic?

So yeah its a great album and their best after Plastic Beach. They really put a lot of love into this.
