...there are very fews words to describe the experience of seeing the mars volta live...you just have to see them...i walked away with two thoughts in my mind: 1.) cedric sounded just like he does on the album, which surprised me, because he really sings, and sings really well...and it sounded just like the album... 2.) i wish i could see at the drive-in live...
...you must see the mars volta...you must

did TMV tell the crowd to not mosh and crowd surf like atd-i? and who was playing bass? was it some other hispanic dude with a slight fro?

there was occasional crowd surfers and maybe a little tiny bit of moshing...but the security team dealt blows to those who surfed...and i was surprised that the band didn't say anything to the crowd...i guess the situation wasn't out of hand, so they didn't feel the need to say anything...

...drunkship of lanterns and take the veil cerpin taxt were the best...take the veil was my favorite for sure...
...there was also a rumor that metallica was at the performance...and someone in my group said she saw flea at the concert, viewing from backstage...
...and i was very impressed with omar whipping his guitar around his body multiple times...and cedric's throwing of the mic stand several times...the bass solo in take the veil was also a highlight, especially for a (bad) bass player like myself...oh, and the bass player himself was shortish, short hair...but not particularly mexican looking...
...oh, and the drummer was amazing...just crazy...

I was going to catch them w/ RATM in '99, but my friends thought they'd get killed at a :gasp: Rage Against the Machine concert! AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    Fucking pucetas. I've missed out on ATD-I, Rage and Smashing Pumpkins (Arising tour, last tour with the four original members) because my friends are pussies. Yet, when some stupid shit they liked was playing ("WOW!!!!!! I LOVE THIS BAND!!! ONLY FIVE PEOPLE HAVE HEARD OF THEM, AND THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY THEIR INSTRUMENTS, AND INSTEAD OF SINGING, THE VOCALIST PUTS HIS HEAD INBETWEEN HIS LEGS AND TOSSES HIS OWN SALAD!!!!!! ISN"T IT SUPER!!!!!!!!!"), I ended up having to shell out $20 bucks (a fucking quarter sack, people!) to see some band who had half the live tenacity of Yoko Ono in a coma. ... so, when are the Mars Volta coming to Cali again? |

I can honestly say I dont think tmv will ever come to florida. Jeremy died right before the orlando show. I think that was the only show that got cancelled. florida sucks ass.
