APC and The Mars Volta.....wow
« on: April 18, 2004, 09:53:28 AM »
So I got back home from the show in Indianapolis, all I can say is, amazing.  One of the best concerts I\'ve ever been too.  It was Maynards birthday (he had the crowd sing happy birthday) so he was actually in a good mood and Mars Volta still continues to impress me every time I see them.  I\'ll post in a little more detail later because I just woke up (I got home at 5 this morning, it\'s 1 now)

That\'s why I bought my tickets a month before the show.  You live and you learn.

As for the concert, the mars volta only played two songs, but they played them for an hour.  It was amazing, especially seeing that they played them completely different than they had last time I saw them.  Completely blew my mind away, and Cedric\'s on stage antics are a thing to behold.  At one point in the show he picked up one of the lights on stage and started pointing it around the crowd and dancing like a maniac.  It was something you had to have seen.

As for APC, I was quite impressed.  Didn\'t really add too much flare to any of their songs besides the nurse who loved me, but they were spot on every song.  Plus maynard played a special song,  "Fred\'s got slacks".  Truely one of the best weekends I\'ve had in a while.  

Oh and plus there was a llama show next door to the arena so I got to see a llama auction before they opened the doors. $50,000 for a llama, what the hell.

It\'s \'Fred\'s Got Slacks\', they have played it at every single concert, \'cept usually Jeordie plays it.

Very nice pun. :)

Are you sure Maynard joined in on the \'Freds got Slacks\' number? As typically it\'s a Jeordi thing only.  I know the conert I went to that they done was great. Have to say my favorite songs they performed was...

\'Vanishing\'
\'Blue\'

Two songs I didn\'t use to care for on the actual album but gained a lot of respect for once heard live, espically Blue.

Never heard that line - so I would guess it was added... I just wish I could of got to see them Tuesday... Didn\'t know about the concert until Saturday and it was sold out by that time.
:(

Oh well, I still have memories of Nov.28th\'s concert. Just wish the band would hurry up and release a live cd or DVD.

They were recording something at the show, possibly a DVD. I wouldn\'t get your hopes up though.

He does that every concert.

I saw them in concert April 9th in Seattle. It was badass. Too bad Maynard just sat in the shadows like always.

Is Josh\'s leg still injured? (He is the drummer, played the show with a broken leg, thats crazy)

Actually last concert I saw Volta at, he didn\'t so it was new to me, and yes Josh\'s leg is still injured.  He was on crutches and they had a handicap ramp up to the stage for him.  Ok, not really a handicap ramp but yeah, it was funny when I joked about it with my friends.

The last concert you saw them at was probably a different tour.

The only thing that changes at concerts at tours (unless its like a ****ing huge gig) are minor things.

They have been doing that off and on the whole tour ...  We can hope - but I won\'t get my hopes up to much.. Still, it\'d be great if there was some kind of live cd/ dvd, while Maynard went back to Tool....Best of both worlds!
:)

Until then, I will settle for my live mp3s.
