A Variety of Shows
Going to concerts reminds me that I need to go to more concerts.
A few weeks ago, ventured to Northampton with friends to see Dar Williams at Iron Horse Music Hall (opening act was Hannah & Maggie). Both modern folk bands in a classic style (which is to say, vocals and guitars without much embellishment). Good stuff.
This week, went to see Dir En Grey at Paradise Rock Club. They put on a well-produced show, but I preferred the opening band, The Birthday Massacre. Partially, that's just because I was more familiar with the opening band, but I also like being able to make out the lyrics (helps that Paradise has good sound for their opening acts). Dir En Grey's selection for the concert leaned more towards death-metal, I like some of their more melodic stuff better.

When it comes to Dir en grey I HAVE TO TYPE IN CAPITAL LETTERS. This is because they are my favourite band in the world. I kind of like all of their stuff, but some folks do dig the more metal stuff, and some dig the more gentle stuff and this is OK because Dir en grey is diverse which is why I love that band.
