The Gaslight Anthem - History Books (October 27th 2023) Album • Page 108

Happy to have dodged a Pink Floyd cover lol

 

eh it was pretty short and Brian sounded great singing it.

I would have guessed we got an Oasis cover last night, but alas...

 

This is always weird to me. Like, a large group of people paid full price for a ticket just to see a support slot and bounce afterwards? It's not even like Gaslight is that dissimilar to Joyce, like I gotta imagine they'd enjoy the show if they stuck around.

 

lol I'm doing it with Alkaline Trio. I have no real interest in seeing them but this is probably my one last shot to see Spanish Love Songs so I'm doing it.

 

That's fair! No shade, was just curious, I know people have work and other reasons. As a big Trio fan I will say, if you have the time, at least check out like the first 3-4 songs cuz they're on fire in this era.

 

Yeah I’ve done it before. Crowd stayed basically the same for gaslight after Joyce manor in Pittsburgh.

 

be for fucking real

 

lol I hate Pink Floyd. 5% because they just don't do it for me and 95% because every afternoon after Chemo my roommate at the time would blast either the Wall or Darkside of the Moon when all I wanted to do was nap or puke in peace so nw it's like a visceral reaction.

 

oh i do think i remember you saying that now, lol carry on

 

Pat is cancelled

 

A couple things:

A) Apology accepted
B) Is that your real signature
C) Fuck off Grim

 

what's wrong with the signature dave

 

Nothing, just helpful to know if it's accurate for a project I'm working on.

 

hmm

 

a. Completely befuddled that anyone would skip out seeing Trio, but obviously you do you
b. Are Spanish Love Songs breaking up or something?

 

A) Matt Skiba weirds me out. I’m probably not gonna leave because my brother wants to see them but I’ll probably chill by the bar and not really care lol

B) They seem to always be on the verge of breaking up and I’m about to have my second kid so my concert going days are as close to numbered as possible for the time being.

 

Congratulations!

 

Chicago was sick. Good night to be a Handwriten fan, not so much for History Books.

 

Are you going to the Hampton Beach show?

 

I had bought a Stubhub ticket for tonight, then my son tested positive for Covid and the seller never sent the ticket. I was really not meant to go to that show. Great setlist though.

 

Tonight in Chicago was insanely good, wish they would’ve played a couple more from history books but Michigan, 1975 was amazing. They also brought Julia from Ratboys up for a few songs, god I love this band

 

Julia crushed it I was losing my mind when she came out. Lot of handwritten and the 59 sound hits, which are my favorite two. Would’ve liked one or two more from history books, but DAMN the Nirvana cover absolutely destroyed at the end. And Brian sounded great the whole night. Good for them first time seeing them

 

Yeah

 

I was at the cincy show too. Thought the same about getting an oasis cover
