The most significant concerts, which I missed

It has long been mature in my head the idea that, to write a post, which describe the most significant concerts, which I missed. I would only write about those concerts, on the badge that I really regret.

Let's go!)

1. Most of all, I regret that missed most vivid concert, which was on the CIS territory for all time - the festival Monsters Of Rock, which played such groups as EST (our very srednenky gruppeshnik), The Black Crows (also not a star of first magnitude), AC / DC (they were hedlaynerami), Pantera (Dada!) and, of course, Metallica.

Generally the last three groups on one stage - it is simply unrealistic to cool and Space event. Add to this extreme in the form of unrealistically large number of people (Data vary anywhere from 400 thousand to 2 million were in that day in Tushino) - none vudstok not so much collected + lawlessness by the police. In short, denek was cheerful and very pity that he had been omitted from the fact that I was then too small (the case was in the 91 - year).

2. Veeery pity for me that missed two concerts Faith No More. The first of them was in the distant 93 - year. At the heated group then played Black Obelisk (!) =)))))

The second group was to visit the festival "Learn to swim" in the 97 - year. Read about this here.

3. Rage Against The Machine. Also unrealistic pity. Somewhere in the middle of 90 have been with us. It seems to in 1996.

4. Biohazard. We played twice, but both were stupidly missed the concert. "Their concert at DK Gorbunova January 31, 1997 almost ended tragically when heated polezli music fans not only on stage but also on the lighting design to one side of it. As a result, the show had to urgently interrupt, but razbushevavshihsya fans with the help of guards withdraw."

After that they were still in the capital on November 7, 2000.

5. Jerry Lee Lewis. In February 1997 - the first he gave two concerts in GKTS "Russia". Which, although not gathered anshlagov, but passed, judging from the feedback, very besbashenno.

Then the issue is not that I do not know the artist. On the contrary, even then me everything was perfectly aware of Jerry Lee (well, at least about the film about him, where Dennis played excellent Kueyd (the film recommend to the overview - history rock'n'roll, in a word. Infu about him, you can now glyanut here).. At that time (and now), Jerry Lee was my favourite rokenrollschikom.

I went to school with the thoughts that go to his evening concert, but after the school day, I learned from his mother that we did not go because of the high prices for tickets. It was very insulting.

6. RHCP. (I do not think there need to decrypt, yes?) Vystupali on Vasilyevsky downhill (that is almost beside the body of Lenin! =)) It seems even be free. In my opinion, when heated I.F.K. The case was in 99 year.

I then do not go to concerts. Progress only on the football / hockey.

Very forward to their new arrival!) Ideally, it would be if they come from tours in support of new album (which I also very much forward)

7. Disturbed. Come to 2003 - year. I then actively listening to their first album, which I really liked. A concert learned about through the magazine NME, I have actively purchased at those times. But how is not fusion (

A shame because as long as no one is set up to bring them, despite the fact that this year they released an amazing album, which posulshat I advise those who for whatever reason, did not have to do it.

8. Guano Apes. Come twice. Both times could go if desired, but not walked. Probably because of the prejudices of parents that live dangerously (although at Spartak-CSKA walked steadily =))) Exactly already and I do not remember the reasons for my passes. On the other hand is valid for one of the concerts were any conflicts with the police and the public beating of the past.

I am glad that did not have to look at the heated first concert is shit, as Snajpery Night, and the second Kukryniksy.

Although missed vysputlenie H-Blockx, which have been heated at the second concert.

9. Children of Bodom. Come to Moscow in 2003, but then I have not listened to them. At that time I met people in bodoms T-shirts on the streets and thought that they played any niello =)) I think they should bring more)

10. Deftones. Not much regret that missed the first concert in Green Theatre "Something Who Park" (c) because of that, then managed them all, see. But still feel sorry, that was not.

11. Paul McCartney. Ignore his concert, which was on Red Square and which was of GDP. Skip because at that time not so much loved Beatles and because of the expensive prices for tickets. Although, later heard that it was not possible for severely huge amounts go to a concert. So I do not know it or not, but the fact remains - the legendary guy I have not seen.

I will include here the blanks first concerts since Soulfly do not regret much about them because of the fact that it is not the time they saw.


For certain about something forgot to write. If you remember, then completed)

Despite the fact that the world tour of rock group announced its intention to write a new album, tour, she has devoted the past shrift. Namely 30 - anniversary of the album "Parallel Lines" - the most commercially successful of their creations.


The team came in August 1974 in New York and the first four years were seen as a local rock-star underground. Attendance changed, yet not established in 1977 in the format sextet. Tangible commercial success came first in Britain, with the output of the third album "Parallel Lines" (1978), for which the team was awarded "Grammy" in the nomination "the best female rock vocal". But this bomb was the third single from the album, "Heart of Glass", recorded in the style of radical disco.

The increasing commercialization of music Blondie and their transformation from an alternative rock band in the trendy dance team contributed to the public and journalists of all other parties had become obscure aggressively sexual soloist Debbie Harry - is the most blond, which gave the group its name. It is to her attention was riveted spectators at concerts and videos. At the request of the German producer Giorgio Morodera she writes the words on the fashionable dance tune "Call Me", expressed in 1980 in the film "American gigolo" with Richard Gere in the main role.

Emo music

What

History emo

vary, mainly toward the melodic rock with pankovoy
sensuality.
1984 marked exit album Zen Arcade group from Minneapolis Husker
Du, which is testimony to their new juicy sound combines
violent, intense vocal delivery and guitar with violent
fateful slow pace and more complex, melodic writing
songs.
In spring 1984 members of The Untouchables / Faith and formed Deadline
a new group called Rites Of Spring. The group maintained
pankovskuyu speed and rabies, but an entirely new podmeshivaet
vocal technique. The singer Guy Picciotto almost Sun? Time keeps
pankovy towering style of singing, from time to time going into a very

the culmination of his voice turns into a guttural, siply,
sensuous moans.
Summer 1985 became known as the "Revolutionary summer", just in
Washington basin pankovoy music rose to a new wave groups
a variety of fatal sounding oriented rock-tempo,

Vocalist Minor Threat, Ian MacKaye, sings for a group Embrace ( "Embrace")
(name of the group compare with earlier DC groups Minor Threat

Sun? yet clear and unambiguous. In musical terms, the group
(formed mainly of former members of Faith) writes a few
noisy music on the average pace, with a large number of guitar-pop receptions.
Vocal MacKaye retains its brand delivered solid, with
sporadic glimmers of emotional transfer.
The sound of these groups over time became known as "classic

acronym for "emotional". One source alleges that the
The term first appeared in an interview with Flipside eclipse Ian MacKaye. Soon
Washington after the group received the label "emo-core".
A little bit later (in 1986), some groups have focused on an element
"emo" as such. It seems, after the first Rites of Spring is done
The Hated in Annapolis (near Washington). Shortly thereafter, in the
same city appear Moss Icon, who dismantle "emo" element to
the very kernel and add much to share sophisticated, arpedzhirovannoy
guitar melodies (Tonie Joy, later in Born Against, Lava, Universal
Order of Armageddon, etc.) with strong atsentom on loud / soft
crossings. Vocals also conquer a new land, takeoff to date

Top 90 - x acquired this style? Litres sufficient fame in the independent
musical environment and resulted in a separate subculture, new
subspecies of this style - "San Diego hardcore" (first shown in

So far emo firmly take root in young? Zhnoy culture,
Sun appears? more commercially successful projects, such as The
Used, Funeral For A Friend, My Chemical Romance, etc., but sounding
they are already far from the original emo-bands…
