TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 The thread title says it all really. Which gigs/live bands have you most enjoyed seeing this year?Off the top of my head, I've really enjoyed Howling Bells, Blood Brothers, Sonic Youth And Franz Ferdinand.Locally, I've enjoyed seeing No Pasaran, Welfare Mothers and Project: Ven Hell (I think I saw them this year).

Guest Savant Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 I saw AFI once or twice this year and they were ace. Poison the Well were also incredible. No Trigger are pretty damn good live, esp for being a straight ahead punk band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Steven Dedalus Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 In all honesty, the best gig I've ever been to was Electric Tibet with the Microphones in Dr Drakes for a Sonic Deth Monkey night in 2003.No gig I have been to before or since has moved me in the way that one did. tears were shed.And if anyone reading this has pictures from that gig (particularly the one of me and Neil with phil elverum) please post them!
