Should have let me know ... you could have stayed here ... no couch, but I have enough sleeping bags, cushions and what not.

Hi,
Very nice show here in Portland as well, and it was a bit more on the rock side of things than it was on the trip side of things (the PT way!), and it was fine. The band was strong, with Steven in fine shape, even on his birthday ... Nick pretty much getting a lot of attention with some very strong bass playing, and DK also standing up very well. Keyboards and Drums were fine, although I do not think that an analog solo or two was required at all, but what the heck ... it kinda took the trip out of it for me some, and made it just a song ... but that's rock music nowadays!
All in all, very fine show, and good quality performance with the music at hand. AND, for once, in Portland, you could actually hear the keyboards ... Portland is known for burying keyboards! |
I had tixs lined up for that show but fell thru at last minute, really good seats too.......Work always gets in the way!

You can upload the video to MS One Drive and post a link for us to view it.....I have never done a YT video.
Looking forward to your post Mike....

How about Youtube, Tom?
Although to be fair, I've never uploaded any footage to that site myself, so no idea if it's easy or hard to do?

@ Mike - the gig was wonderful - one of the best I've witnessed. Great to see Nick in action !!
Though it was brief, the excitement level was high, and sorry for being 'eager-beaver' to fit in several years of life into a few, fleeting hours.......... Perhaps when the proposed Hackett gig comes to fruition.......
Jose - the record fairs aren't the same as they used to be........Michael picked up quite a few, I only came across 3. Glad I got The Dillinger Escape Plan's debut !! Plain bonkers 
Highlights of the gig for me - Ancestral and Don't Hate Me. I did capture DHM on my iPod, no matter how standard quality my filming was.............I wish I caught Ancestral coz the band just went totally nuts during the heavier 2nd half, but my arms got tired of holding this crappy (but valuable) device above my head !!! |
Ha...you need to post that video. When we saw him he played a more metal version of Sleep Together, that song was brutally good!! Wife and I were front row for both his shows in 2012 and 2015.
Have not been record shopping in quite some time, really just been spinning all I have and enjoying it.

Great review Mike!  I have seen him twice, the music, vibe, performance and attention to detail are excellent. For sure what he has been doing in the world of prog these past several years has been refreshing and his love of what artists like Prince/Bowie stood for is very cool.
Did you pick up any cool stuff at the record fair?

Hey buddy, great doing time with you again down here, one of the best weekends I've had in a long time. Amazing concert, good company, and a pretty fruitful record fair as a bonus! Though I was saying to Samuel on Facebook that I wish we'd gotten a photo together...  Next time....when our concert-going prog show paths cross!
