Don\'t want to start any major arguments here, but as I may be able to make it up to London next weekend for the Particle/Keller Williams gig - warm-up no doubt for their Amsterjam appearance - need to get the inside track on the band. It\'s only ?10 (c.$19) + booking fee for the gig but the diesel costs and bridge toll will be triple that. (Yeah, there is a ?5 toll on the main bridge into Wales!)
I know k-dub is pretty consistent from the various shows I have, but what about Particle? Have been streaming a bit of the most recent show on lma which doesn\'t sound too bad at all (guitarist seems pretty good - quite bluesy), but this show might be a one-off.
[I know I could have put this in the Amsterjam thread but figured a title like this might get some reactions
and I need to know by the end of the weekend for tickets etc]
TIA
For all that loot, skip the show and fly to the U.S. for some Real Radio tour!
Particle is great, ehhhh, bout once a year maybe? ill give em twice, one winter gig one summer. you see one show youve seen them all. molitz is a wizard on keys, though, hes a blast to watch. its definitely worth it, i just have a hard time with lyricless
**** for a couple hours.
just find a hot chick and dance your balls off with her. :banana: :hump:

\'Bout what I thought - not a band I could listen too that often probably, but I\'d be going more to see k-dub than them.
As for the second bit - suppose the wife wouldn\'t know!!!
For all that loot...
I suppose to you guys, $20 a ticket seems a lot for an unknown band, but here that\'s about the minimum for any band with even the smallest recording history. SCI cost me $25 and $30 a ticket. If The Breakfast came over, they\'d be the same amount, or more per ticket. You lot are spoilt with your $5-10 a show rate. (Not that I\'m jealous...)
(Not that I\'m jealous...)
YES you are
:lol:
As for Particle...don\'t forget to bring your girlfriend Molly...and show up late...and leave early
definately go man. particle is sick. i hope to catch them this summer with mickey, they\'re called hyrda. funny story actually. a few yrs ago i worked for a college radio station wgfr and a few of us went down and interview them for our station. they are really chill guys. we hung out with them before and after the show. charile is the best. anyways the thing is the guy who was supposed to tape the interview forgot to turn on the mic. so a couple weeks after we went and saw them again and them gave us some liners. tell ya the truth that radio station is probably the only one in that area who plays jamband type music, which means, a lot of the breakfast is getting some airplay.
not to be an uber-head, but Hydra consists of Particle + my main man Mickey Hart....(every encore will consist of Mickey rapping "fire on the mountain")
YES you are :lol:

I guess you don\'t like them, Todd??
Thanks for the Particle critiques so far - keep \'em coming. Still waiting on a few of the bisco fans\' comments.

When I saw them, I really liked them for the first three songs. Then I started not liking them....good musicians....just had build ups that just never seemed to go anywhere. Got to the point where I was expecting them to go somewhere really cool with the jams...and it just never happened. I will give them another chance next time I\'m able.
score some rolls or mollie and youll love em.if not,nevermind....
the perfect recipe for an enjoyable evening w/ Farticle:
1. an economy size package of no-doz, yellow jackets, or any other accesible trucker speed
2. a four pack of red bull
3. your favorite dancin\' shoes
4. a breakfast/gd/pheesh/ rotation of jams in portable music player of choice to listen to during the non reachable "peaks" in btwn. the oh so many "valleys" to keep your groove groovin\'
