Melvins Tool Primus coming 24 June 17

[blacksanta]

I had tix and a flight dialed up and ready but just couldn't justify it with adulting life being what it is. That said, I've always liked Tool and Primus, but adding Clutch to the bill really made me excited. That band is a bluesy riff machine, Neil Fallon is a stunning vocalist and lyricist, and they have pretty much "kept their heads down and done their work" for a long time. Should the Melvins be headlining? Absolutely. But what a once-in-a-lifetime collection of old weirdos still executing their bizarre version of rock. Kudos to Tool for putting it together!

An earlier colleague of mine, who now lives in Trondheim, a brilliant guitarist btw, is in USA with his family and went to see this band mix and he told me on Facebook that Melvins were by far the best in show and he has no realtion, them, except he`s a fan of Fantomas.

PS! For those who care to check out, he was the guitarist in a band called Necktie Party, pretty good in my book:

I think they've been through far worse opening slots for Tool.

But I agree, this was probably Tool inviting their friends and the individual fees must have been at least enough to get Fantomas together.

"Honestly, I would rather watch them in a smaller place with no production. Have them communicate to me, their live music on a much more human level, I think that would be way more entertaining and way more meaningful for me. If I could see them in a 1200 capacity place and you could look at them sweating, then you feel the meaning of it. I don't mean to pick on them, it could be any band on that level; they've lost what it means to be a band, and that's unfortunate, because that's what got them to there in the first place."
