[song of the moment:|"Bliss" by Hinder] Apr 30th, 2006 10:00:20 pm - Subscribe Three Great Bands!! |
| On April 26 a great friend of mine, who introduced me to this blog by the name of meshmdz, and i rode down to knoxville to see a concert at a small hole in the wall named blue cats live. Both of us just decided to skip out of work for the nite and do a lil driving down to listen to what we hoped would be some good live music! Both of us have been listening to these three bands since their albums released, therefore, we knew it was going to be a good concert! We arrived late and didnt get good parking then stood in the rain for an hour but once we got in the show just happened to be a pleasant surprise because all of the bands were better than we had assumed. We finally got in the building a little bit after 9 just in time to hear the last three songs by the first band. Faktion, a band from Texas, opened with "Maybe"(my personal favorite due to the amazing guitar in the song). They played a few other of their hits like "Distance" a slower yet phenomenal song about being close but not too close! Check it out! They closed with "Taking it all away". Its their main hit and its a good song but they have others that are way better. Its a great cd that is self titled so go get it today. After changing the setup for the next band Hinder, a band from Oklahoma, took the set and opened with a killer song named "How Long". They kept on jamming and mixed slower grunge rock with harder rock. Its a great mix. They played "Better than me"( an amazing song), "By the way" (one of my favorites by them) and "Lips of an angel" another great song about a relationship that is over but neither really moved on. Its beautiful! They also played "Bliss"(my personal favorite). Its about knowing its over but not excepting the fact that the one u love no longer wants to be with you. Its simply phenomenal! They closed with "Get Stoned" which is a decent song just not my cup of tea! Last Theory of a Deadman came out! They played every song on their latest album Gasoline. They played "Hello lonely" and "Santa Monica" which are two great songs! They closed with "No Surprise" which is one of my favs by them! It was a great way to close the concert! After mesh and i found our way back to the interstate and made our way back north. It was a great time and an amazing concert. One of the best ive been to. It was a great way to get my mind off finals and listen and appreciate great music and good talent!! |
