10.11.05 Coheed and Cambria/The Blood Brothers/dredg/Mewithoutyou

me without you: not a bad opener. a lot of ... well it was a weird 1/2 hour.

dredg: no intro. i almost didn't set up in time. 6 songs. gavin was on fire towards the end of tanbark. also no drum take down. 8th time i've seen them and it was a little lacklustre compared to the other times i've seen them. even the band admits that they're tired of playing the same songs over and over again. also played 30min.
canyon behind her was on the setlist but crossed out for hungover. bad call boys.

blood brothers: they got a really good ovation from the crowd, even during the sound check (check check check checkcheckcheckcheckcheckcheck CHECK CHEEECCCKK CHHHHHHEEEEECCKKK, oh oh oh oh oh oh). they played a late-40 to 50 min set. so it was quite nice seeing them play pretty much a "headlining" type set. pretty cool seeing as how they haven't been here since 2003. they're setlist was also standard.

coheed: they were pretty solid as well. i noticed by the soundboard, the have a keyboard set up there. so i guess they have a live sound-maker guy. claudio still mumbles into the mic and their bassist still weirds caps. oh yeah i realized mid set that coheed runs a stereo room mix. so travis' guitar runs one side of the stage while claudio runs the other. uh-oh stack tapers... coheed played for about 90 min. their encore was a little under half an hour alone. 2 songs no less, iksse:3 + final cut. during final cut, they were just jamming away, going on and on and on. solos and solos and more solos. travis used his talk box, making wah wah type sounds, while claudio did the over the shoulder behind the back solo. ok guys your zeppelin rippin, could be a little more subtle. still entertaining nonetheless.

rating: $30/$30 . this lineup was stacked. it'd be hard for them not to get full marks.
