2025 Concert Thread

Super envious. And Laur's playing a doublecut!
Unbelievable player. That was my second time seeing him. He split his time between a Strat (only used for the first couple of songs), a Tele, that LP Jr, and a relic'd Friedman.
 
Tonight I'm seeing Bob Dylan. I won't have pictures of the show:

I just spent wayyyyy too much money for section 1 seats for Suicidal Tendencies, Pantera, and Metallica. But it’s going to be The Boy’s first concert, so I want to do things right. And I really like Pantera.
 
I'm glad to report that the mobile device free event was refreshing. I was sad that I couldn't take a picture to show how damn awesome our seats were (they were decent -- dead center stage and a bit more than halfway back the auditorium), but it was great not having to look through people's phones to see the stage.

Dylan's band sounded great; Dylan's voice was Dylan's voice, but he sounded better than I expected. He sat or stood at the piano the whole show, banging out chords mostly. Played a solid 1 hr 45 minutes, took a bow at the end, and the band left the stage. It's the first show I've been to in which I lowered the overall age demographic.
 
Was Charlie Sexton his guitar player and doing vocals for this tour? Charlie's great...as is Mr. Dylan (obviously and on another level).
 
Larkin Poe was fantastic!
Both sisters are BMFs on their respective instruments. Their vocal blend was perfect all evening, and Rebecca's lead vocal kicked ass. The band was tight as hell, and they brought it. They did a few bluegrass-esque songs in the middle of the set with mandolin and standup bass, which would've been cool, but the one mic they brought out to do it with wasn't loud enough. Plus the audience wouldn't shut up. So it was very hard to hear. OTT, a perfect night.
