[DID NOT ATTEND: April 1, 2026] Thursday / Chris Conly

I have seen Thursday twice.  Both times they opened for My Chemical Romance.  The first time was in the Prudential Center.  The second time was in Giants Stadium.  Both times the sound wasn’t great and while i knew them a little better the second time, I felt like I couldn’t really appreciate them at all.

So while I don’t know their music well, and don’t know the album Full City Devolution any more than any of their other albums, I thought it would be a great opportunity to actually see the band properly.

But then my daughter was going to Minnesota and so I missed all for the shows this week.  Luckily I was able to resell this show, so no loss for me.  And maybe Thursday will headline again soon–I mean they sold out this time, so they know there’s interest.

Chris Conly is a Brooklyn musician,  I listened to two of his songs and hated them both.  He reminds me of George Thoroughgood, and the last thing we need is another George Thoroughgood.

[DID NOT ATTEND: April 1, 2026] Joseph / The Man, The Myth, The Meatslab

My wife and I saw Joseph back in 2018.  She didn’t really know them but I was fond of their tight harmonies.  They were great and they played everything I wanted to hear.  I didn’t feel like I needed to see them again.  A few years ago one of the sisters, Allie, left the band and they are now a duo (with backing musicians).  That was one more reason I didn’t need to see them.  I’m sure they’re still really good, but it’s not the band I liked and the memory of that show is enough for me.

The Man, The Myth, The Meatslab is a new project from Jamie Clarke (I don’t know what his old project was).  He gets credit for a bizarre name, but boy I did not care for his lo-fi downer folk.  He reminded me of Hayden but less compelling.

Not sad about missing this one.
