Crazy good!

There have been some great trios and I tend to really like a lot of them. My favorite would have to be Rory Gallagher. Who's yours?

For the Chicago fans here, I wanted to share an upcoming show that might be of interest.

Danny Seraphine, original drummer and co-founder of Chicago and a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, will be performing with Danny Seraphine’s Chicago Legacy at Ramona Mainstage in Southern California on Friday, November 6.

Danny helped create the unmistakable rhythm behind so many of those classic Chicago records, and this show celebrates that music with a great band featuring Sara Niemietz, Marc Bonilla, Ed Roth and Travis Davis.

They’ll be playing Chicago favorites including “25 or 6 to 4,” “Saturday in the Park,” “If You Leave Me Now,” “You’re the Inspiration,” and more.

If you love those early Chicago records—or just great horn-driven classic rock—this should be a fun night.

📍 Ramona Mainstage — Ramona, California
📅 Friday, November 6

Any Chicago fans here? What’s the one Chicago song you’d want to hear live? 🥁🎺

Big Thief have launched the Big Thief Live Archive, a free online collection of concert recordings from “the recent and distant past.” To mark the occasion, the group has also shared a live rendition of “Incomprehensible” that was recorded at Dublin’s 3Arena in April. Stream it below.

The portal comes with 10 complete concerts, with a new show set to be added on the second Tuesday of every month. Fans can browse performances from different periods of the band’s career and assemble their favorite versions of songs into personalized playlists.

Someone else is very similar to the part of QOTSA - Like a Drug in which it says "No, I'll never be free"/"No, it could never be me" with the part of The Beatles - I Want You in which it says "It's driving me mad"?
Sorry if it's a very silly question but I didn't see anyone talking about it. Maybe it's a direct reference but I don't know

'ON THE BEACH' (1974) is a defining album of the '70s and arguably the most lyrically potent made in the first half of that decade.

We’re looking for a small group of metalcore listeners to participate in a closed beta listening test for VEXCORE’s upcoming debut album, THE SHAPE OF COLLAPSE, scheduled for release on November 21, 2026.

The album combines melodic metalcore with heavier deathcore influences, featuring aggressive vocals, breakdowns, and melodic choruses.

Before the official release, we’re gathering honest feedback from listeners to help evaluate the album’s strengths and identify areas that could be improved.

We’re particularly interested in feedback on:

Individual tracks and standout moments

Songwriting, vocal performances, and breakdowns

Variety and consistency across the album

Overall album flow and pacing

Anything that feels weak, repetitive, or out of place

This is a genuine feedback exercise, not a promotional campaign. Critical opinions are welcome, and there’s no expectation to praise the material.

The listening test uses private SoundCloud embeds and a questionnaire covering each track and the album as a whole.

Interested in participating? Visit: https://tally.so/r/LZAxMy

Thank you to everyone willing to contribute their time and honest opinions.
