I have a BlueSky account for my day job but wanted a place I could shamelessly post about concerts I go to and music I love. I hope to follow fellow concert goers and nerd out over great tunes #metalsky #concerts #livemusic

Definitely will check this out 🖤🤘

On June 22, I went to the Ironwood to see Grapes of Wrath. As a GenX, this show checked all my nostalgia boxes. They still sound fabulous 🖤 #livemusic #CanadianTalent #concert #GenXtunes

Back on June 18 I went to see Japanese punk band Peelander Z. This show was batshit crazy and so much fun 🖤🤘#punkismetaladjacent #metalsky #livemusic #concert #punk

Haven’t been posting because life has been nuts but I’ll try to catch up on posting shows over the next few days. Short clip of Front Line Assembly from Terminus Festival this last weekend. Jon Siren on drums. Loved every minute. Bill Leeb crushed it 🖤🖤🖤 #metalsky #livemusic #musicfestival

Frosthymn at Dickens June 12. Solid black metal band corpse paint and all. Musically I enjoyed this band the most that night #metalsky #livemusic #concert

Short video of King’s Rot playing at Dickens on June 12. They were thrashier than the other black metal bands that night and I didn’t get any decent still shots of them. No schtick or corpse paint - these guys were raw and had energy #metalsky #livemusic #concert 🖤🤘

Short video of Necht playing at Dickens on June 12th. Great show and overall stunning evening of black metal 🖤🤘 #metalsky #livemusic #concert

GenXConcertLover @genxconcertlover.bsky.social · Jun 16

Four local black metal bands played Dickens on Thursday. Headliner was Necht. Theatrical with dark religious overtones and great outfits. They are worth checking out. I’ll post a short video next and then do some posts about the opening bands #metalsky #livemusic #concert 🖤🤘

Three Days Grace, co-headliner with Volbeat, was okay - I appreciate their energy and devoted fan base just not entirely my jam. Still had a good time and glad I’ve now seen them once #metalsky #concert #livemusic

Wage War opened last night for Three Days Grace and Volbeat. They absolutely crushed it 🖤🤘 #metalsky #livemusic #concert

GenXConcertLover @genxconcertlover.bsky.social · Jun 10

Saw Volbeat for the second time and will definitely see them again - stellar show, fabulous music 🖤🤘 #metalsky

Die Krupps killed last night at The Palace opening for My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult and Ministry 🖤🤘 #metalsky #industrialmusic #livemusic #concert

They stole the show for me and I thought the design on this shirt was very clever 🖤🤘 #metalsky #concert #bandtshirt

GenXConcertLover @genxconcertlover.bsky.social · May 20

Anyone else have a concert t-shirt problem, I mean collection? Figured I could start sharing some of the cool tshirts I’ve picked up at shows.
This one is Organectomy. I saw them last year as one of the openers for Carnifex.

I saw them open for Arch Enemy too a few weeks ago. They absolutely hooked me and I ended up grabbing a shirt. Really great band 🖤🤘

I saw a lot of talented bands this weekend at Gatorfest, but Black Pestilence was a highlight and they absolutely melted my face off 🖤🤘#metalsky #Concert #livemusic

GenXConcertLover @genxconcertlover.bsky.social · May 18

Went to Day 2 of Gatorfest yesterday. One of the standout acts was Beguiler, deathcore/death metal band from Toronto. They put on a great show and the pull of their music was visceral 🖤🤘 #metalsky #livemusic #concert #deathmetal #deathcore

GenXConcertLover @genxconcertlover.bsky.social · May 17

So awesome! I saw them in Nov 2023 and honestly Gina Gleason blew my mind 🖤🤘 Have a great time!

Excellent evening out at The Palace to see Godspeed You, Black Emperor. Not an energetic stage show, yet the music is incredible. Strangely propulsive yet beautiful 🖤🤘 #livemusic #concert #metalsky
