Bad Religion always puts on a fantastic show, though Greg has to take a lot of water breaks now that he's gettin old and pudgy. The new album is decent, nothing greoundbreaking or extremely striking, but it sounds good. Of the last couple, New America is probably the best, even with Brett on only one song. I wish they'd play more Grey Race stuff live, that's a fantastic album, probably because Greg was really pissed off and it was the first album that he wrote completely by himself, every sinlge instrument.
Last night I got my tickets to see SKINNY PUPPY and TWEAKER july 3 at the Henry Fonda. I really hope this show rules. I was shocked to hera that Cevin and Ogre got back together, it's going to be interesting to see what material they choose to pull from, this being their first tour together in like ten years, and both guys having a pretty healhy supply of solo material themselves. I'm afraid that Tweaker is just gonna be a dude sitting behind a computer, but I hope I'm surprised and he brings along some of his guest vocalists for the show.
Oh, I almost forgot - thjere's a great free show at the Troubadour on Monday night featuring STRIFE - balls out blistering hardcore. I have no idea why they're playing for free, but I'm not going to complain. My friend's brother used to play drums for them and the band he's currently with is going to be co-headlining. I'm lookin forward to moshin it up
