Opening Band: We Are The Asteroid.

I admit knowing absolutely nothing about this band. Not because they were not a good band, they were. They are a 3 piece and played for 40-45 minutes. But I was solely at Headliners for the Melvins.

Headliners is a perfect venue for Melvins. Spacious to accommodate but cozy enough to be right there where the action is.

Not surprisingly a good amount of folks in their late 40s and 50's were there along with a crowd of 30-somethings and younger since it was an all ages show.

I stood at the front right corner where Steve McDonald was performing in a dapper white suit. No crowd bumped into me or bothered me so I fully enjoyed watching them perform.

Moshing in the center of the floor really took off later in the set at the start of History of Bad Men. The most frenzied moshing of course began when Honey Bucket started.

The show definitely did not disappoint. The band sounded great. I had a great time and was grateful to see them again.

The setlist was: see attached file.

Hostile Ambient Takeover is the greatest album the Melvins ever recorded.

I was at this show. The Vogue is a neat little club. The show was pretty good. My only critiques is that the songs were TOO distorted and the Melvins play entirely TOO fast. Gotta let them songs breathe a little. The Bikini Kill cover at the end was quite good. Buzz's mumu looked spectacular.

There is a developing resurgence of quality independent wrestling promotions such as Lucha Underground, New Japan Pro Wrestling and Ring of Honor. I was wondering if there is anything out there that illustrates any members of the Melvins or the band itself expressing any interest in professional wrestling? The band seems tailor made for this niche entertainment as a band/promotion project. I bet they could make a killer entrance theme for a wrestler.

What pedals did Buzz use for Gluey Porch Treatments and Ozma?
