Theband’s performance, theaudience’s energy, the feeling of unity. Pretty sure it was 2015, at the Mayan in LA.
It’s been rare in my experience for everything to come together like that.
The Eras Tour was great fun for those same reasons. It was like a cross between Disneyland and a college football game.
Guided by Voices is great, Peter Murphy & David J doing Bauhaus was fantastic, Pom Pom Squad rules.

I usually avoid nostalgic shows and went to this one with no expectations. It turned out to be one of my favorite shows so far! Peter Murphy sounded fantastic, and it was mind blowing to hear that music at such a large scale after only knowing it through boomboxes and a Sony Discman.
Also the Eras Tour exceeded my expectations, but that was because of the fans and the atmosphere more than the show itself.

They played at The Glasshouse. It was my first time seeing them after just getting into them. At some point they played an extended version of Higher Than The Sun and it got to the point where the whole audience was moving together. All of our heads were bouncing the same way, our movements almost blended together. It was transcendent.

The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists.
The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished.
People who’ve paid attention won’t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.
