Musical conundrum
I’m trying to decide whether or not to get Skinny Puppy tickets for this coming Monday at the 930. Any fans among our readership? I enjoy their music but have no idea what kind of a live show they put on. And, in fairness, I haven’t picked up an album of theirs in a decade. Any fans or former fans out there with thoughts on the matter?
Saw them back around ’93-ish at the Lee District Rec Center on Telegraph Rd. in Alexandria (well, Fairfax County, actually, but the mailing address is Alexandria). If you go, take earplugs…it was LOUD.
Saw them at the 930 Club about 3 years ago, Excellent show – really excellent. Although the latest album is weak – they’ll probably only gloss over it and focus on their classics.
I saw them live once on the Too Dark Park tour and they put on an amazing show, I’m making an assumption here, but I would imagine the showmanship has only gotten better, even though their music has gone in the tank since then.
