I did one of my favourite scenes and submitted it.
It was not one of the asked for scenes, but it got put in there anyway.
Not saying where since I am quite a private person. :P

MASTER BOOT RECORD has a new album out courtesy of Blood Music
Really diggin it.
I missed out on my opportunity to see them perform live in Vancouver, so I hope you'll have a blast!
Was actually last night (although I suppose I could've went again tonight!), had a pretty great time. Setlist was solid, they played for longer than I expected, just the sound wasn't that great.
I wanted to see them but couldn't make the drive into town the other day so I'm consoling myself with seeing Dance with the Dead tonight instead.Was actually last night (although I suppose I could've went again tonight!), had a pretty great time.

If they played Days of Thunder, I must've missed out on a hell of a show. :,(

Have fun! I debated going, but decided to just pass this time. The two times I saw DwtD were great, but felt like I can pass on this one.
It was great. I've never been to a show at a venue like this before so it was a bit of a different experience. Also my first time wearing earplugs that aren't the cheap orange foam. It was weird. After about 5 seconds I didn't even notice I was wearing them except when I was cheering or clapping and it wasn't as loud as I would have expected. Still sounded great.
Le Matos opened for them tonight and they had some good stuff going too. Had a bit of a hiccup when everything died on them in the middle of their last song. Had a few people in the audience shout out "We love you anyway!" and "Try turning it off and on again!" They got it going again in less than a minute so which wasn't too bad.
Seeing Dance with the Dead tonight. My first synthwave concert! Has anyone here watched them perform before?
The only real interaction with the audience was the one guy who will occasionally encourage the audience to clap for a song, get up and jump, or just take a quick video of the audience. I don't think I heard either of them say a single word through the 70 minutes they were on stage. It didn't really lessen my enjoyment of those show, but I don't really have much to compare to so that might contribute some. I can see how it might become more noticeable on repeat shows though. Still worth seeing live at least once because of how different it is in person compared to listening to them on my commute, or the crappy speaker system at work after everyone else has been kicked out.Seen them twice myself and as Deraldin just mentioned seeing them last night :) Enjoy.
I enjoyed it a lot, but my issue with seeing DwtD live, is that without vocals, there's a bit of a disconnect with the audience. They'll get up and play, and rock, but from start to finish it's just an onslaught of music. Maybe that has changed with this tour, but was just my minor issue the two times I've seen them as compared to going to a usual heavy metal show.
Yeah, can confirm this is the case. Was fun though! But apparently it's just how synthwave shows operate. My SO saw Carpenter Brut (I missed them 'cause I was out of town) last spring and it was the same, and all the opening bands were the same too; since they have no mic there's zero stage banter or even a hello and good night, haha. It's kind of weird.Seen them twice myself and as Deraldin just mentioned seeing them last night :) Enjoy.

In all fairness, the new Gunship is amazing. Drone Racing League, Thrasher, Honor Among Thieves, Dark All Day, and Artemis/Parcival (of course). It's nice to have a synth album that sounds 'big'.

If there's anything I've learned firsthand it's that a lot of hardcore electronic artists provide some of the most hardcore moshpits. The Prodigy for example might not be a metal band or synth band but they've got some of the craziest crowds.I love how there was even a moshpit during Dance with the Dead xD Lots of metalheads in attendance actually.

What do you guys think of LeBrock? May have already discussed them. I think they are solid. Lead singer has some pipes but does kinda yell all their lyrics. Luckily he sounds good doing it. Originally discovered them on timecop1983's "too late".
I didn't even know they had a "cover" of MoP (honestly wasn't feeling it, it sounded a bit weird) when they played it in the middle of the set, but they closed with Kickstart My Heart here lol. Fun.Yeah, when I first saw them they closed with their Master of Puppets cover and it easily got the biggest ovation. There's definitely a lot of crossover.

Wow, never heard this The Midnight track (The Bend). It's a bonus on the vinyl of Endless Summer. It's very nice.

I just met Timecop, Fm-84, and The Midnight in Brooklyn.
You all need to see Ollie Wride sing live. Holy shit.

I will tonight! I'm a little bummed it won't be The Bad Dreamers opening, but Michael Oakley is a darn fine replacement.
