Coheed and Cambria go "Jam Band like"

Coheed and Cambria, one of my favorite bands ever recently came out with their latest album, NeverEnder, appropriately titled to say the least, complete with 4 CD box set, and DVD to boot.

Overall the CD's total up to be 405 minutes of mind blowing, shredding guitars and Claudio Sanchez's almost Robert Plant like voice filling the entire set.

It's the bands first album since their longish named album, "Good Apollo I'm Buring Star IV: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness"

The DVD's showcase the process of writing and recording the album.

This is a very good follow up to their last CD, showing how the band can play virtually any form of music they want.

Nickleback Live at Wells Fargo Arena

Alright guys....

I did not have a chance to go to this concert, however, my roommate was there and he took some videos and gave me a really good visual on how this concert went.

Seether and Saving Abel opened up for the headliners. Seether has been touring with Nickleback for a couple of years, they aren't that popular yet but I'm sure they will get there.

Saving Abel was made famous on the radio with their hit song "Addicted". Saving Abel kicked off the show by showcasing a guitar that fans could win by texting "PRS" what ever that stood for, to a certain number.

This concert, according to my roommate was like a combination of a Football game, A stand up Comic and a Rock Concert all rolled into one.

Chad Kroeger was hilarious, cracking jokes and telling stories between every song. One of his crew members even came out in a pig costume and starting launching Nickleback t-shirts to the crowd.

Overall my roommate would have to say, "this was a pretty kick ass show".
