GivenToFly Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Excuse my ignorance, but what is it like seeing a rapper live? Do they usually have backing bands or just use electronic sampling like on albums? Are any particularly artists particularly interesting live? Do they sometimes change the songs to make them fit the live setting better?Not trolling, just asking, I've always assumed that this is a genre that doesn't translate well to live performance. Except for rap 'battles' that is, I've always thought that is an interesting concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted September 24, 2011 Author Share Posted September 24, 2011 Definitely doing the Anthrax show in Sayreville on 11/12...and doing the meet and greet too! Couldn't get to the Buffalo show as early as they suggest for the meet and greet, so it's easiest just to add another show on a Saturday to do the meet and greet!

B)On top of these, I've just decided spur of the moment to go see Dick Dale tomorrow night in Northampton, MA. Missed him in '07, and I've been worried since I'd never get another chance to see him. No way I'm letting that happen again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We see Maiden everywhere we can. We've seen them a total of 17 times in 7 countries; United States, Canada, Sweden, Norway, Wales, Northern Ireland, and England.Cardiff was one of my favorites this year, it was great to see Maiden in such a small venue!
