Dinah Brand in Whelan's on Friday. I really should have boned up on the album, their songs are quite impenetrable on first listen. But in fairness I knew that so I was expecting it. Enjoyable gig, great turnout.
Slane on Saturday...... where do you start? By complaining and sounding like a grump? Or look for the positives?
PRO: Good travel and parking experience. Ghost's utter professionalism. Metallica being themselves and always doing whatever they want. Like playing the most normie gig imaginable and still playing an 8 minute song from St. Anger.
CONS: People, booze, too big, quiet, rain, sober Hetfield being a total snooze, sloppy Metallica.
For a band that does so much right, why can't they do the simple simple things? Like get a decent bass tone.
