3/14/11 (Godspeed You! Black Emperor)

Holy shit. The show was incredible. Everything I could have wanted (except they didn't play two songs I would've loved to hear.) But everything they played was so tight, I feel like they must have been practicing secretly for 8 years and not really broken up.

SET: (as far as I could tell)

Storm
Sleep
Moya
Static
Blaise Bailey Finnegan III
Motherfucker = Redeemer Part 1 (I think)

They were one for at least 2 hours and I loved every second of it, and they played a shit load of transition music and some pretty harsh noise at points. The visuals were pretty goddamn awesome as well. I really am thinking about going to another one before the week ends, even by myself.

Took a couple videos, then I just wanted to focus on the sound. We weren't as close as I would've liked, so the shot isn't great, but the sound came out very nice and this little flip never fails to impress me. So enjoy!

Fucking gives me the chills. Storm was definitely the high point for me.. that or Static, I just wish the sample they used for Static was louder. For anyone who's reading this who doesn't listen to GS!YBE, I really suggest getting:

F#A#Infinity - http://www.mediafire.com/?fgi8neoj1lb

Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven - http://www.mediafire.com/?njkykyz2ynz

and

Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada - http://www.mediafire.com/?22wzzejmjio

The Dead Flag Blues (opening track on F#A#Infinity,) is the song that got me into them, but Lift Your Skinny Fists is definitely my favorite by them right now, but it switches between the two quite often. It's all gold honestly.

Enjoy.
