Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings show!!!!

[bull930]

I have to say this was not as good as I thought it would be. I got in fairly quickly but it looked as if things didn't start on time. On top of that the opening act was horrible(no offense) but you don't bring out a polka/riverdance group for an opening act. We should have got a refund just for that. After that it was really late and then Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings came on. Now she was good and stopped a fight in the crowd. I had to leave after I heard my 1 song(100 Days/100 Nights). I have to say I would have rather had Sharon come out and do her thing with no opener.

I can't believe you clowns are just now discovering Sharon Jones. She's been around for a coon's age.

And I can't believe you actually used the term "coon's age."

Could not make it to the show but wish I did. I hope they liked the poster. It seems fights always break out at the most sedate/non-aggressive shows. Fights at Sharon Jones? Yes. Fights at Slayer? No.

i don't know what slayer shows you are going to.

I saw them a few times in NYC and the crowd was the nicest I have ever seen. No, I am not joking.

you got lucky.  that is not my experience with slayer shows.

[snailhook]

yeah, really. i've been to tons of metal/hardcore shows and have seen slayer a few times, and slayer crowds are ALWAYS the most violent, aggressive assholes. and this includes NYC.

[El Jefe Design]

Well, yes, the pit is always scary. Maybe I was just lucky.

Because I had to catch Metro plus I was just ready to go after that opening act.

Well the warm up act appears to have the stamp of approval of someone involved with SJATDK as they are on tour with them...
