O/T: Saw Living Colour last night

[sufferer]

Hey I know a few folks here are LC fans so just saw them last night on their CD release show. Been a huge fan since Vivid but never seen them live...OMFG! Sickest musicians ever, Doug took his bass solo into the crowd and just went nuts, Will's drum solo was jaw-dropping, then Corey throws in a VOCAL solo...did a moody intro to Open Letter and hit every friggin note up and down his vocal range, unreal. Anyway loved the show

I concur. Saw them a couple of years ago when they decided to reform and just do an improvised gig on short notice. They were awesome. Truly awesome and I agree, probably the slickest musicians I have ever seen live (on par with the Mars Volta live whom I rate very highly).

New album is great - very heavy in parts too.

LOVE THIS BAND.

Seen them once in Amsterdam and they were great (that was the reunion tour)...and can imagine them being superb nowadays! Can't wait to get the new album...

I remember seeing them back in 93 on the Stain tour and it was incredible. Must check out the new record.

I can concur... The Chair in the Doorway is the heaviest album they've ever done but it stills got the classic LC sound.

Brilliant album. September has been a very good month for music. Megadeth, Muse, Living Colour... shame Anthrax wasn't on that list.

They opened with Desperate People and the House of Blues went nuts, I was right at the baracade in front of Doug (my bass idol). Oh yeah during his bass solo he played his bass with his teeth right in the middle of the crowd, his TEETH...and it sounded SICK. Been to probably a couple hundred shows and this blew them all away, go see this band.
