Marillion \m/

I got to see Marillion last night on thier latest tour, it was the first time they have been to the U.S. in about 7 years.
GREAT show, they once again proved to me why they are one of my favorite bands.

Although they didn't do a " greatest hits " set the songs that they played sounded flawless. Steve Hogarth is a really really really great front man.

The band did 3 encores ( I don't really like encores but it's nice when they play forever )

Two thumbs up!

On the 5 years in a livetime dvd of dream theater, they do show with several artists. They played a song called "Easter" with the Marillion guitar player and their singer (i think, he's also playing keyboard). This song is awesome.

Some basic algebra:

Fish > Hogarth

"Misplaced Childhood" = best album ever

WTF !@JLRKJLDFAHSAKFH the show was last thursday?!

See I can't say that Fish is/was better than Hogarth or vice versa. I like both for different reasons.

Vocally Hogarth smokes Fish as Fish's voice is shot now. Hogarth has a much broader range. Fish of course had better lyrics and song concepts. Hogarth is also a better front man in my opinion and has more talent musically.

But Fish can out drink him...


BUT I like them both equally.

BTW the new Marillion CD is pretty darn good. very experimental.

Yes I saw that, It was an OK version at best. Easter is one of my favorite songs, I learnt it in my voice lessons long time ago. They did that last night as an encore.

 

[Chromatose]

yeah the new one is great.

I never could appreciate ANY of the hogarth albums nearly as much as the Fish ones, but the new one I really like.

Seasons End is pretty cool in its own way, but I don't own it yet, so here's another vote for: MISPLACED CHILDHOOD IS AMAZING. In fact, I may have to listen to it RIGHT NOW.

My first introduction to Marillion was the 5 Years in a Live Time bit and Easter is a beautiful song. I checked them out, heard whispers of this legendary Fish era and once I got MC....dayum.

 

[DreamNeonBlack]

Well, just to rub it in your faces. For all of you DT fans, Back in the day I saw DT open for Marillion. At the time there was no singer, pre Labrie post Dominici 100% instrumental set. was most cool, I think that was when I first hear them play a Change of Seasons. Yeah, some DT songs are that old LOL.

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

[Chromatose]

yeah some drunk guy at the uli roth show last month told me about it, but he gave me the wrong date, and i never bothered to double check (yes i guess i shouldn't believe exactly everything a random drunk guy says )

so i thought it was this week, and i was gonna just find out more about it tomorrow, thinking it was going on this thursday or friday... oh well
