I'm gonna be in White Plains, NY all day tomorrow and I was wondering if there's any shows in NYC that I could catch while I'm in town.
I'll be there wearing a Meshuggah shirt. :B
Not even kidding.
Crap. None of them run late enough. I could get there, I just couldn't get back after the show. Maybe I'll rent a car (airline discount), or maybe I'll just blow it off and hang in the hotel bar with the crew. I'm not big into new NW anyway. Volbeat might be cool to see though.
Definitely not $50 cool. I'm not even sure why I'm going really.
Anette wearing a "sack thing"?
Thanks for the clarification on the instrument. I had known that at one point, but forgot. I dunno about Swedish fashion or what designer is picking her wardrobe, but that outfit was a miss. Big, baggy shift with a gathered up swoop of cloth just under her rear end. Made her look large and shapeless, which she surely is not. Rather good description, Kaosaur.Thanks for the report AMBR!
Anette wearing a "sack thing"? She has an endorsement deal with this Swedish fashion house and the Swedes are not particularly acknowledged here for having the best taste in fashion
(Sorry, for any Swedes around this is a j/k ...honestly )
The "thing" Troy plays is called Uileann pipes, the national bagpipe of Ireland.
The uilleann pipes bag is inflated by means of a small set of bellows strapped around the waist and the right arm. The bellows not only relieves the player from the effort needed to blow into a bag to maintain pressure, they also allow relatively dry air to power the reeds, reducing the adverse effects of moisture on tuning and longevity. Some pipers can converse or sing while playing as well.

Yeah. I normally carry my Epica shirt in my bag for out of uniform stuff. If I decide to go to see Nightwish, I can't wear that. I'll have to go with Iced Earth or Therion or something like that.
I don't understand Metal Concert Fashion Ettiquite.
Rule 1... never wear the t-shirt of the band you're seeing.I don't understand Metal Concert Fashion Ettiquite.
It was good seeing you as well. Glad we got to hang while you were in town.It was SO cool to hang with everybody. It was cool to meet Kaosaur, AngraRules, and AMBR, and hang out with Stardust 2112, Zod, and Paula. I can't wait to see your tats AMBR. Get cool ones. It was an expensive night, but worth every cent.
Volbeat is an awesome live band.I was impressed by Volbeat. I don't have their album, but they were fun live. Great energy even though the singer was sick. The 2nd guitar player was lots of fun to watch too. I think they would have rocked PPUSA.
Yeah. Not something I typically care about... but wow.Her outfit was horrible!!! MY first though was, "WTF? Is she trying to look like Debbie Harry?" It was an epic fail.
Agreed. We didn't even make it through a full Nightwish song.I'll see Volbeat again, but I won't see Nightwish again.
Rule 1... never wear the t-shirt of the band you're seeing.
Rule 2... always wear a t-shirt from a band heavier than the one you're seeing.
