0:44
None. All right, what's up everybody,
0:59
It's your boy Kefi. Late night Kefi here with a
1:02
Friday Night Live stream. We'll see who shows up.
1:06
Kind of semi planned. Semi not planned here, chick NC
1:10
is here. What's up?
1:10
What's up? I am pet sitting so I'm not in
1:14
the usual studio, but I have kind of my portable set up with
1:18
me and I thought I would jump on and do a review of some recent
1:23
concerts I saw. I started getting back into this
1:26
recently where I started to do some concerts again.
1:32
Going to a bit of a less clip of shows this year than I have in
1:37
the past. Just not possible for me to go
1:40
to all the shows and do all the things and give my best all the
1:44
time. So I've been going to less
1:47
shows, but I went to three in the last month and I thought
1:52
that, you know, now would be a good time to come on and kind of
1:57
talk about them and share them. So I'm not at home.
2:00
I'm at my friend's house. Maybe my little orange cat buddy
2:03
will show up and we'll have some Catter Day.
2:05
Hi, Jinx. Almost Catter Day here on the
2:07
West Coast, 11:30 at night in California.
2:10
Northern California. Mark Anderson's here or
2:12
Sanderson. Sorry, what's up pal?
2:19
That I have my beverages, that I have the Bev, don't forget the
2:24
Bev, Never, never, never. But yeah, I thought I would pop
2:30
up in here and jump on this live.
2:34
And the best experience for this is Facebook, YouTube, Twitch,
2:41
Instagram. But I'm also hanging out on
2:43
TikTok. I will answer your questions if
2:45
you're participating, you know, feel free to give us a like and
2:49
subscribe if this is your first time here.
2:51
We have been around. Ghost Cult is your one stop shop
2:55
for rock and metal news, interviews, concert and festival
2:59
reviews all over the world. This is our 13th year.
3:03
We turn 13 in a week and a half. I'm really stoked.
3:06
We're going to roll out some fun things.
3:11
Texas Metal Militia is here. What up?
3:13
What up? So yeah, I thought I would hop
3:16
on quickly, run through the three shows that I saw recently,
3:20
maybe drop some set list information.
3:23
These tours are mostly ending this weekend with a few
3:27
exceptions, so I thought it was a good time.
3:30
Some of these are getting reviewed on our website,
3:32
itgoescoldman.com. Some I just went to for fun, but
3:37
I'm really excited. It's good to get back to shows
3:40
and enjoying myself here in the Bay Area, but we cover shows
3:44
basically every week all over the world.
3:46
We have been covering a bunch of music festivals, Static
3:49
Afflictions here. Metal Dad is here.
3:53
Thanks for passing by. Appreciate everybody and anybody
3:56
who is tuning in and watching at this late hour.
4:01
I just I I visit, I'm I'm visiting so I'm not home, but I
4:05
happen to have this Metallica shirt in my bag in my suitcase.
4:08
So I was like, all right, I guess the Metallica shirt it is
4:11
for today. Late night Metallica shirt live
4:15
stream. Of course we have the horrible
4:18
anniversary, almost 40 years of Cliff Burton dying in that
4:23
terrible bus accident 39 years ago September 27th.
4:27
But maybe I'll jump on tomorrow and and do a little talk about
4:33
Cliff. But in the meantime, while I am
4:35
here and I have some stuff going on, I thought again, I would
4:40
talk about these shows I've been seeing.
4:41
I have seen some great ones. So I made a little, as usual, a
4:45
little deck to help. Unfortunately, y'all on TikTok
4:47
tonight appreciate and see this slide deck that I made.
4:51
But you know, we'll benefit from having some guidance, a script
4:56
if you will. Just a reminder, we are giving
5:00
away tickets, 5 pairs of tickets to see the Cult in Los Angeles
5:05
in a very rare tour. They're kicking off in a in
5:07
about a week and 1/2 with the Cult and Death Cult.
5:10
So Death Cult was the post punk, new wave precursor to the Hard
5:15
Rock, almost heavy metal of the cult.
5:19
So they're doing basically celebrating 40 years of of both
5:23
their bands. So Death Cult followed by the
5:26
Cult together as well as failure has been added to that LA show
5:31
and patriarchy. So super killer.
5:33
A whole bunch of great entertainment.
5:35
If you're in striking distance of the show, LA or the West
5:39
Coast, feel free to enter. William is here.
5:44
GBR Huskers has also passed by. So yeah, maybe you can win
5:47
tickets and go see the cult. Miss Red is here.
5:50
What's up Miss Red so you can though link to that's in the
5:54
description also also just a reminder we are not corporate
5:58
backed so we do appreciate tips. I will drop the tip menu where
6:05
you can tip us. Hold on one second.
6:12
Feel free if you're feeling tipsy to drop us a tip.
6:16
I am not opposed to listening to your song if you want to jump on
6:21
YouTube and drop me a comment after you give us a super like
6:25
or a super thanks or a tip. But in the meantime, let me drop
6:30
a comment here with the tip menu.
6:35
You know, we appreciate it. Buy us a coffee and coffee cash
6:39
app PayPal, Venmo and yeah let's see if I can pin this pin the
6:45
comment word sometimes TikTok you're OK, I don't hate you.
6:54
So that's our tip menu and if you're watching everywhere but
6:57
on TikTok, you can jump in the cash app.
7:04
I had a brain fart there for a second.
7:06
Also also just a reminder, we go live a few times a week.
7:09
We have band interviews multiple times a week and we have our
7:15
interviews on YouTube, especially the full length
7:17
interviews are on our podcast and YouTube several times a
7:20
week. So I went live Wednesday night
7:23
and I did a big discussion about Gore and the First Amendment and
7:27
Jimmy Kimmel and freedom of speech and satire and Charlie
7:30
Kirk and, and then I did my weekly live stream last night.
7:35
You can go check out after you're done watching this, you
7:37
can go check out all our content, which I appreciate.
7:40
Would be very cool if you did. It'd be cooler if you did all
7:46
right and let's see what else what else I again I have my
7:50
weekly live stream yesterday, so that's fun again I'm in my
7:54
pajamas here and then this Metallica shirt.
7:56
Since I'm not at home, I don't have my usual gear here, but I
7:59
man I managed to make do with this portable setup.
8:03
I'm pretty proud of me. Ginger is here, HH is here, but
8:07
a few people are watching on YouTube and Twitch, which is
8:12
kind of fun. So let's let's get down to
8:16
business. Why are we here?
8:17
I'm going to talk on and begin this picture.
8:19
We're here to talk about the sword or Druna and Baroness.
8:22
I saw the sword at the end of August.
8:24
They are just wrapping up their U.S. tour, their second leg of
8:28
their comeback tour. They are played levitation
8:32
festival tonight with Mastodon and acid that they were third on
8:35
the bill. The big levitation festival in
8:37
Austin. We will be covering them in
8:40
Saint Louis this weekend. I imagine we will get a review
8:43
of that up on the site later next week.
8:46
The sword. You know, we're broken up
8:48
basically for several years. I had interviewed the band right
8:50
before the Pandemi Lovato and they've kind of slowed down and
8:55
I think they were kind of coming to an end anyway.
8:57
They were going on hiatus no matter what because they were
8:59
not having a good time as a band.
9:02
But then they, you know, a couple years went by and then
9:06
they released a cover and they announced they were going to
9:08
come back and do some limited shows and festivals, maybe
9:11
record a new album. They had two big anniversary
9:17
records come up. So the Warp Writers was the
9:19
first one that's 15 years old. And Black Raven Mark is here.
9:25
What's up? And so the Sword went on tour
9:28
where they played all of Warp writers in its entirety as well
9:31
as a bunch of their other hits. So what a great opportunity.
9:35
They basically had the same line up since, you know, about the
9:39
same time as Warp writers, maybe 2011, 2012, they had the same
9:42
line up. Only the drummer has really
9:44
changed in the band. And yeah, they were.
9:50
It was a very hot night in San Francisco at the Great American
9:53
Music Hall, where I see many shows, and I also saw Baroness
9:56
recently. Earlier in the year.
9:58
I was there to see Cavallera play all of the Schizophrenia
10:02
album, which was pretty rad, as well as some other earlier hits
10:05
and classics from Sepultura and Full Metal.
10:09
Jackie's passing by. What up, What up?
10:11
Much respect. So the Sword Live, man, they
10:14
were phenomenal. Didn't really talk much to the
10:16
crowd, just showed what you can do with muscular Stoner rock
10:20
riffs and good lighting. They really didn't interact much
10:24
and say too much. Just you know, hi, how you
10:26
doing? Good to be here.
10:28
And they basically opened up the set with some jams, played a few
10:32
4, you know, four or five songs. Did a really cool David Bowie
10:36
cover. They've been doing live of Space
10:38
Oddity, but as like a Stoner doom song.
10:41
And then they played all of Warp writers, like really without a
10:44
break. The whole stage ended up being
10:46
colored and covered in kind of red lighting, which is not great
10:50
if you're photographing them, but phenomenal atmosphere,
10:55
right? And they just played jam after
10:56
jam and people were really hyped for.
10:58
They had lit like special Warp writers, 15th anniversary
11:02
posters and vinyl that they were selling.
11:06
Sometimes I think they had some sign vinyl.
11:08
They had some shirts. I got a sword shirt and I showed
11:10
off on some other recent podcasts I do and it played all
11:15
of that. Then they can and took a little
11:17
bit of a break and then basically came out and did an
11:19
encore of like 5 or 6 more songs from their other, you know, age
11:23
winners and their other stuff. Talk to the crowd, thanked
11:26
everybody for coming back out. It was nice to be back.
11:30
So I think we're going to see the Sword play into next year
11:33
doing Warp Riders and then probably another anniversary set
11:36
of tours. The going has been good for
11:39
them. It was a sold out show, was hot
11:40
as fucking balls. Michael says his favorite drink
11:47
is Dixon cider. That's killer.
11:48
I'm having a liquid death that's kind of the trademark of us.
11:52
These are these tall boys are going away.
11:54
And I'm not a big fan of the stevia they're putting in the in
11:57
the liquid death now. But I do have cherry obituary
12:00
here. And then if I run out of
12:02
refreshment, I have a Trader Joe's Sparkle insider.
12:05
I love beer. I have a beer podcast, but I'm
12:08
not drinking a lot of beer these days because there's some
12:10
medical issues I'm having. But Yemen, the Sword is
12:13
absolutely fucking killer live. It's kind of like they never
12:17
broke up. They just hit it right back like
12:20
they used to be tight and fun and just groovy and a lot of old
12:25
heads in the house. The sword does seem to have kind
12:27
of a skew to kind of some older fans, which I think is kind of
12:31
fun. And Yemen, it was an absolutely
12:36
great night. They played for like an hour and
12:38
a half. So let me I'll go through if you
12:41
guys are interested. The sword set list from that
12:44
night. They came out with the Delton's
12:48
3030 song state of the Nation. 3030 is is what they came on to
12:52
the the intro, the walkout, the walkout music like a wrestler or
12:55
a fighter. Then, like I said, how having
13:01
this axe, cloak of feathers, empty temples, high country,
13:04
which was really nice to hear sea of green and then the space
13:07
oddity Bowie cover, which was dope.
13:10
Vika Mesquita is here. What's up?
13:12
What's up? And then if anybody just screen,
13:18
Hey, Ken, what's up, buddy? Late night edition.
13:21
I'm here doing some concert reviews.
13:23
I'm I'm cat sitting at my friend's house, so I'm not home,
13:26
as you can see, and I thought I would jump on and do a review of
13:30
the three shows I have seen in about the last month.
13:33
The sword playing all the warp writers, Wardroona, which was
13:37
unbelievable, which I'll talk about next.
13:39
And then Baroness doing all of red and blue.
13:42
So again, here is the sword set list again.
13:46
Space Oddity and then all of warp writers basically track 7
13:51
through 16. Akaron unearthing the orb Tres
13:55
Brujas, I was in the dark, the chronomancer Lawless Lands
14:00
astray, His Dream, The Warp Riders, Night City, Chronomancer
14:04
2 and the night the sky cried tears of fire, which was
14:08
absolutely fucking fierce. Then they came back again for
14:11
the encore. Far Star, Daughter of Dawn and
14:14
Freya. Freya is one of the best metal
14:16
songs of all time. On top of how great some of this
14:19
other stuff, how heavy this acts.
14:20
You know, it's like you immediately, as soon as the riff
14:23
kicks in, you know the band, you know what they're known for is
14:26
really fucking fresh. I have to say I was really
14:29
impressed. So that was the sword of I Went
14:35
with my Homie and a shout out to my homie Jorge from my band
14:38
Angst. Check us out at Angst Music SF
14:40
on social media. We are on a little.
14:43
We took a little bit of a break for the summer and I think Jorge
14:48
and I are going to get together in the studio soon and start
14:50
working out some more songs and go through some riff tapes and
14:53
riff recordings we have basically, and try to piece
14:56
together some more jams and see how that goes.
15:01
And so. Yeah, All right, I just went
15:03
basically as a fan. We're covering the show formally
15:06
this weekend in Saint Louis. And Nick Cameron, who I do the
15:08
Glacial Musical podcast with, is going to review it might have
15:11
some photos. Citizen Basilim is here and O
15:16
Core Tenemi is also the passing by.
15:19
Good to see you. Good to see you.
15:20
Thanks for being here. Sometimes I, you know, sometimes
15:24
I'm able to give some advance warning and sometimes I just go
15:27
live when the spirit moves me. Maybe it's not as strategic as
15:30
it could be, but I don't know. I I have fun doing these so
15:34
thanks for humoring me and being here.
15:36
Just a reminder again, feel free to drop us a tip and the tip
15:40
menu any especially any of y'all on the main channels.
15:48
Looks like Instagram did not get the post and see if this works.
15:53
There we go. There is the live stream menu if
15:59
you feel like dropping us a tip there you go.
16:04
Hey, it's it's dollar sign ghost cult mega on cash app at ghost
16:10
cult mega basically all yeah, it's wasted the bandits here.
16:13
What's up with Tom? So that was the first one.
16:17
Then I went to like a week and a half later I went to see where
16:22
Druna. So this photo of a Druna.
16:23
Unfortunately, again, y'all on TikTok can't get it yet, but and
16:28
I think at some point I'll do a live stream about the future of
16:30
TikTok. TikTok, you know, whether it's
16:33
going away or you're going to have to get a whole new app.
16:35
They use TikTok in the USA. This bear is watching, but I saw
16:39
where Druna at the kick off show of their current U.S. tour.
16:42
They played tonight in New York City, which we had a reviewer
16:45
and photographer at, my man Dante Torieri of Useless Rebel
16:48
Imaging, and he's going to do a formal review and photo shoot.
16:53
This photo, if you're watching this, is from Red Rocks.
16:56
We got to go cover Wodruna and Chelsea Wolf on their first leg
16:59
of their tour for the Burna World Tour.
17:02
New album out in January that came out already at Red Rocks.
17:07
I wish I could have gone. I was, I certainly could.
17:09
Was invited to go. I just couldn't make the trip.
17:11
It's been complicated here for me health wise as well as other
17:14
things. So.
17:16
But yeah, Wodruna man was pretty unbelievable.
17:19
Chelsea Wolf opened I went to the Paramount Theatre in Oakland
17:23
for the very first time. This great old school theatre
17:26
that's been completely restored. Incredible sound, you know,
17:30
pretty comfortable, beautiful, beautiful place.
17:33
Merch options were aplenty. Chelsea Wolfs they they start.
17:37
I know I'm getting old to a certain point.
17:39
My birthday was recently. I think Ken knows that because
17:42
he's an everyday error. I know I'm getting old.
17:44
When I'm super excited that a show starts on time, the bands
17:48
get on and get off when they're supposed to and the show gets
17:50
out at like 1010 thirty. I was never so happy.
17:53
I know I'm officially fucking old.
17:55
So Chelsea will hit the stage right at 7:30 and you know she
18:00
was magnificent. She mote.
18:01
It was just her and Ben chills and who's her Co writer and
18:04
producer of all her stuff and she mostly did her acoustic
18:09
stuff where she played guitar and with a little minimal
18:12
backing of piano and sound effects.
18:15
She did do one industrial metal song.
18:17
I think her solo acoustic stuff just kind of goes better with
18:21
Wardruna set probably. So I understand that totally is
18:25
a choice. It's a very good choice to make.
18:28
And then I think he got off right on time.
18:33
And 30 minutes later, Wardruna took the stage and the lighting
18:36
came up. And, you know, they put on a
18:38
marvelous show. It's really incredible the
18:41
amount of sounds the band can make with just seven people.
18:45
Corporate bruises here. Stacy Lee, yes, is here.
18:49
Thanks for being here. Feel free to give us some love.
18:51
Show us some likes, getting hearts and tips and whatever you
18:55
want to do, send us some gifts, whatever you do over there on
18:58
TikTok. So yeah, Wardruna was pretty
19:00
incredible. Just absolutely, you know,
19:02
moving this Norse Pagan music, for whatever reason, it,
19:06
metalheads love this stuff, this true school stuff.
19:11
And you know, I can't say enough good things.
19:15
Audra Holcomb is here and Lisa is here.
19:18
I can't say enough good things about Wardroon Alive.
19:21
We're very honored to partner with them to promote the tour.
19:25
It was really great. I got to go.
19:27
We sent somebody out today. We've covered them in Europe,
19:30
I've gotten the SeaWorld Juno all over the world.
19:33
It's been pretty amazing. Again, if you've ever seen the
19:37
TV series Vikings, which a lot of people seem to love, or you
19:43
are familiar with Assassin's Creed Valhalla, I and ourselves
19:47
ago were Juno contributed to both of those soundtracks.
19:50
I actually, I think Vikings has just recently seen a three
19:54
volume release of of their soundtrack stuff.
19:58
I really would love to get it on vinyl.
20:00
So just really quick, I'm going to blast through this 16 song
20:03
set for Wadruna starting with Crit Raven, which is White
20:07
Raven, their previous album Harton Scuga Soul Regen M
20:12
Tethers Rhydo which is a huge popular song on streaming.
20:17
Liechtenberg, which is also a big song of Voluska.
20:22
It's called the Version, which INR has done solo as well as
20:25
with the whole band. Let's see Tear super popular
20:30
song Isa GRA Verna, which is the title track of the.
20:42
And again, I'm just super stoked when the show ends on time and I
20:46
can get the fuck out of there and go home early because I'm
20:50
getting old and I don't want to be out late anymore.
20:52
But it was great. Show ended on time, everybody
20:55
was first class, the venue was wonderful.
20:57
I just ran down the block, got on the Bart train back home to
21:00
San Francisco from Oakland and I was home by like 1115.
21:04
It was amazing. Great, great job.
21:06
I imagine Wardron is going to be tall touring again all of next
21:10
year. They might even come back to the
21:11
States at some point. They did do 2 extensive US tours
21:14
here, so if you missed them, hold out hope that they will
21:18
come back. But if you're in Europe, I
21:20
imagine that they will hit all of the European cities next
21:24
year, which will be fantastic. Pinky is here.
21:31
Critters is here. Thanks for being here.
21:33
I appreciate you. And that brings us finally to
21:35
Baroness. So Baroness is, you know,
21:38
unashamedly, just as much as I love Katrina and the Sword.
21:40
Baroness is one of my favorite bands ever, the top 20 bands
21:44
ever. And they have been on tour.
21:47
That tour is winding down this weekend, and Baroness is playing
21:50
all of red and blue. So I saw a Baroness last week on
21:54
my birthday. Happy birthday to me and I got
21:57
to go jam out and watch them do all of red and blue again at
22:02
Great American Music Hall where I saw the sword a month earlier,
22:07
about 3 weeks earlier. Marsh McManus is here, Jay Clark
22:12
is here, Lolly is here. What's up, What's up, What's up?
22:17
So yeah, Baroness was incredible.
22:20
We need OR opened that came out to The Golden Girls theme song.
22:24
Thank you for being a friend. And then of course they just hit
22:27
like the first note. Oh, beat rocker.
22:29
Long time no see. What up?
22:30
What up? Good to see.
22:32
I'm just doing some late night catch ups on some concerts I've
22:35
seen recently and I'm on to the last one now, Baroness.
22:39
But I hope you've been well though.
22:40
Beat rocker. So Baroness man, weed eater came
22:43
out and just pummeled. It was actually almost like
22:46
abusively loud, even with my earplugs in, it was so loud.
22:51
You know, it's really kind of hard to just enjoy it.
22:55
But like, the people were moshing and really receptive.
22:58
Weed Eater hasn't really put out a new record in like 10 years.
23:00
And I don't know if they're going to do another one because
23:02
like, you know, maybe they should and maybe they shouldn't.
23:04
I know that that one record continues to sell.
23:07
That one record they did for season and this 10 years ago,
23:10
it'd be cool if they did a new record.
23:12
But like, you know, maybe this is all there is for them to just
23:15
keep going out and doing what they do well and just that's it.
23:18
And no, you know, what's the point of maybe putting out a new
23:21
record? Starshine is here.
23:22
What's up, What's up? You know, maybe it's too much
23:25
work to do, you know, maybe it's too much work to do a new record
23:31
at this point in their career. I don't know.
23:34
But so Weed Eater was amazing. And then Baroness, it was a lot
23:38
better sound. You know, they changed over to
23:41
Baroness's set and they played all of red and blue
23:46
back-to-back. And they unlike the sword and
23:49
and kind of Woodrow also, you know, greeted the crowd.
23:52
And it's a little more energetic show because everybody is
23:54
wearing traditional costumes and playing these ancient
23:57
instruments. And Lindy Fahela sings and
23:59
dances around. But Baroness is like one of the
24:02
best and most professional bands ever.
24:03
They've had this line up basically for 10 years, little
24:06
more than 10 years since Gina Gleeson came in the band.
24:10
And they were just unbelievably great.
24:12
They played Olive red, talked for a little bit, welcomed
24:15
everybody. They did not acknowledge.
24:18
I think they did it in another show and they certainly did it
24:20
on social media where they mentioned the recent passing of
24:23
one of their their founding drummer, Alan Blickel, who died.
24:29
I met him and saw them a bunch of times with him back in the
24:31
early days of red and blue. But you know, they were already
24:36
kind of processing their stuff and moving forward.
24:38
So no, no disc there. But it's enough to play this
24:42
music like, well, every night and perform and just absolutely
24:45
everybody's singing along. Baroness also had always has
24:48
great merch. As you know the the lead, the
24:51
front man of Baroness, John Dyer Baisley paints all the album
24:54
covers, shirts, everything. So there was original artwork on
24:58
sale. There was a special red and blue
25:00
tour poster. They were red and blue tour
25:01
shirts. There was some autographed vinyl
25:04
for pricey amounts. I have all the Baroness records
25:06
on vinyl, so I don't I don't need new ones or I don't really
25:10
buy multiple versions of the same thing I have already.
25:13
I just find that like, I don't do it.
25:16
Just not a thing for me to rebuy the same thing over and over
25:18
again except for sleep for some reason, because it's been so
25:21
many remixes and different versions, I've bought new ones
25:26
over and over. So yeah, man.
25:28
Baroness, they took a little break.
25:29
They thanked the crowd for coming out.
25:31
They went back to finish red. They took a little bit of break.
25:34
All the lights were red and then they they kind of transmuted all
25:39
the lights to blue and they started playing all of blue and
25:42
you could tell people were even much more hyped even for blue
25:45
than red, which is fine because blue was like the Decibel album
25:49
of the year. It was one of the Ghost Call
25:51
albums of the year. You know, I've given like very
25:56
few 10 grades in my whole career as a reviewer and Baroness has
26:00
two of them. So I mean, I am a little biased
26:02
as I'm giving you this review, but it was a pretty incredible
26:04
show. Great guitar work, great harmony
26:07
singing, you know, played everything was pretty
26:10
incredible. Bassist Nick Jose played a
26:13
little bit of keyboards, Sebastian Thompson, their
26:15
drummers. Just a beast mode, dude.
26:19
So let's just quickly do the Baroness set list also for you,
26:23
just in case you're interested and excited, obviously starting
26:26
with Red Raison Pinion, the birthing Isaac.
26:29
So these are huge songs in the Baroness catalog.
26:32
Wailing wintry wind, cockroach and floor, wanderlust, Elf,
26:37
Heath of a cogwheel, Oh, Appalachia and Grad.
26:42
And you know, one of the things about Red is the they have
26:45
repeating theme music that comes in and out a few times.
26:48
So it's pretty fucking phenomenal and very heavy.
26:51
And at the end of Grad, they held that last note of Grad for
26:55
like a very long poignant period of time.
26:59
They took a brief break. Wasn't really like an encore,
27:01
but they came out and they started with Bullhead Psalm and
27:04
played all of Blues. So this Bullhead Psalm, the
27:07
sweetest cursed Jake leg steel that sleeps the eye swollen and
27:11
Halo OG Chi hymnal, A horse called Golgotha, which is their
27:17
big, big rock and jam over Helen hide war wisdom and rhyme, which
27:21
also rules Great fucking riff Black Powder orchard, the
27:25
gnashing and Bullheads lament to close.
27:28
So I wonder, you know, Baroness is, I imagine going to work on
27:32
new music at some point. And I wonder if this revisiting
27:35
of these classic albums will influence the new music.
27:39
But you know, they're always a band that doesn't repeat
27:41
themselves. So they're they make Baroness
27:43
music, but they don't doesn't seem like they make the same
27:46
stuff over and over again, which is super cool.
27:49
So yeah, unbelievable show. And I thought again, it was a
27:54
great way to celebrate my birthday.
27:55
I did get a a I start there. My dear friend from San
28:00
Francisco, Lori was there. You always see pictures of me
28:03
with her dog, Django. Lori is one of my best friends
28:06
at Concert Buddies. We go to a lot of stuff.
28:09
And yeah, an incredible night. Just a really good time for me,
28:14
these shows. I really haven't been going to a
28:16
lot of concerts as much as I used to, but these three were
28:19
pretty enjoyable. So look out for a review of
28:25
Wardruna in New York City. Look out for my review of
28:28
Baroness in San Francisco on Monday on the site with photos
28:32
from my friend Anita Frausto and and ghost Co correspondent
28:37
Anita. She does a lot of stuff, a lot
28:39
of death metal and grindcore and stuff, but also comes out and
28:42
shoots, shows that I review Skinwalkers here and went up,
28:45
went up. Tara Solomon is here.
28:48
Good to see you. Good to see you.
28:49

28:54

Tomorrow is, you know, I did a Cliff live stream talking about
29:13
Cliff Burton at the top of the show.
29:14
I did do a Cliff Burton live stream earlier in the year.
29:16
I'd rather celebrate that he lives much more.
29:20
You know, I'm sad that he passed, but it's great that he
29:22
lived and was an early leader of Metallica along with the rest of
29:26
the band. So we'll see if I have time
29:28
tomorrow. I'm usually trying to take
