Yeah. I bought the ticket based on an article I read, without having heard the band. Was able to sell the ticket for $5 over face, so #winning.

the real question is of course has Sam Smith been seen in the same room as Sleep Token (yes I read their bio)
T.Rex

Just curious, what article made them sound like a good show? This exchange interested me enough to do a google search.

I think it was this. Full disclosure, the link was pushed to me via some algorithm.

https://wrrv.com/corey-taylor-three-new-rock-metal-bands-carrying-flag-heavy-music/

But, ahem, "What does Corey Taylor think" about the current state of rock and metal, and which bands are exciting him the most?

"Turnstile are fucking amazing. Sleep Token are really starting to do something for me, and Bad Omens are great. There’s a whole new generation of bands that are starting to come up that are carrying the flag for heavy music," the rocker enthused.

That should immediately disqualify anything else you're heaping praise on.

Honestly hadn't heard of Turnstile either. Only vaguely know of Corey T, and figured he knew the metal scene better than I did.

tl;dr metal sucks?

Trying to decide if I should get a 20 dollar lawn seat for tonight’s dcfc/postal service show.

The Anthem show was great.  Exceeded expectations (more fun, louder in a good way).

....except the garbage sound.  Guy next to me yelled "fix the mix" during all of DCFC.

I was behind the soundboard on night 1 and thought it sounded amazing but what do I know?

Sorry you had a bad experience

it's to be expected at a rock show in a cavernous space.

Duran Duran at Capital One Arena had way better sound though!
