What a show! All bands were great and DJ was good! Loved the old TKK and LOA tracks played! Praise the Lords!!!
I am a dedicated Thrill Kill Kult fan. Loved every minute of it. I was completely BLOWN AWAY by Lords of Acid. They totally rocked. Amazing show. Unfortunately, the Cubby Bear was a total disappointment. The air conditioning wasn't able to keep up and it was VERY hot and miserably uncomfortable. Bar stools at the bar would have been nice too. There was nowhere to sit. I would recommend a Thrill Kill Kult and Lords of Acid show anytime but at a different venue.
I lived for a long time in the frozen North (Alaska); none of the bands I truly adored ever made it to Fairbanks....so I missed the time when most folks would have been seeing such shows when the bands first started playing. I figured ML with the TKK and Lords of Acid would be "good", but probably also distorted by decrepitude, physical decay, and at the least, anticlimactic-just-not-what-I-expected ness (cynical me). I was wrong!! Both Thrill Kill Kult and Lords Of Acid were as kinetic and aurally astounding as I ever could have imagined either to be. The sound was superb, the dancing so intense I thought I'd stroke out: but would NOT let self leave my spot, as my musical ICONS were RIGHT THERE... feet in front of my face, kickin ASS, tearing my head crown chakra clean off and blasting it to the ether!!
I was tipped off by a review of this show that said that there were two unlisted opening bands, and Lords of Acid didn't start playing until almost midnight. When I went to the Cubby Bear at 10:30, I found out there were three unlisted opening bands. LOA didn't go on until almost 1 am. They ended at 2 am. If I went when the doors opened at 8, I would have been there 7 hours. So the show went late, really late, but I saw Lords of Acid live, and that was worth it!!! Thrill Kill Cult was ok, but I went there to see LOA. It would have been nice if LOA could have played for more than just over an hour, since they were the headliners. Buy anyway, they were great! There's no band like them!
Great music, great stage show....it was so great seeing Praga Khan again, along with the incredibly sexy Lacey Connor in a leather mini dress and fishnets. The girls in the crowd didn't look too bad, either. Loud, too. I'm glad I brought earplugs.
The opening bands were OK but when Thrill Kill Kult came onstage the whole area erupted. Great performance by everyone, Lords of Acid also had everyone rocking hard.
Unspeakably awesome to see such energy, such a connection between the performers and the crowd...Both TKK and LOA were great tonight.
TKK had a bit of a rough start with equipment, but it was resolved pretty quickly. They put on a good energetic show and their setlist was great. I was glad for the chance to see them again after they canceled last year's show. The Lords put on an amazing show and really seemed to be having a great time with each other on stage. Which made for a lot of fun watching. They also had a great setlist. Both groups played all the favorites. We had a great time.
Great show. The only minus is that Thrill looked like they had to lip some of the songs, it was pretty obvious. Also, I would have like to have seen more of the girl in that group, the guy kind of screamed the whole time.
opening band was new and interesting, I love thrill kill kult, but they took forever to come on stage seemingly when all was ready. then there micks didn't work right away, but finished strong. The lords were thier usual caotic and sexual selves. I loved it, and i loved the fact that the guitarest from Ministry joinrd them.
First band Blowload actually was pretty good, mixing quirky beats with hardcore metal. Good combo, nice guys. Next My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult came on, played most of their greatest hits plus some new songs, same lineup as days of old. Always a Favorite. I was a little Leary upon knowing Lords of Acid had replaced their singer with Lacy from Nocturne. She was actually pretty good, although not that good of a singer compared to the past lead women. The bass was cranked good and loud, shook the whole house. Good times, Good Freakshow of a crowd. Worth the 30$
This was an all around awesome show. Blownload was really good as well as Thrill Kill Kult. Lords of Acid was AMAZING. Definitely one of the best live shows around. I would recommend this show to anyone even if you've never heard of Lords of Acid. You won't be disappointed.
It was totally an awesome show!! So much energy I loved it!!!
We had a great time. The show was great and sexy and the venue was really nice. I like how Club Nokia has a VIP area with seating and a great bar up top where they mix the drinks much stronger.
The warm-up acts were sorta forgettable except for the big singer with the dreads. He was funny but actually pretty good in his own way. The Thrill Kill actually surprised me. They had some really good dance songs which got the crowd going. The Lords kicked-ass like always. Praga still runs around, destroying his keyboards and mike like the diva that he is. His latest front lady has some stage presence but needs to work a bit on the vocals. The rest of his band were great. Overall a pretty good show.
Lords Of Acid (Pragha was out of control) Thrill Kill Kult was the best show yet! I've seen both bands many times TKK stole the show this time!!! Must See!!!!!
The two opening bands were ok. But the main attraction was the two we all went to go see. They rocked the house! However Club Nokia, gorgeous inside & fun; but it was hell trying to figure out how to get to the Door! Let alone the long line & waited outside 15 minutes past the "Door Opening" schedule. But you could clearly hear they were completing sound checks. Over all perfect night!
I didn't know that there were 2 other bands besides the one listed opening for Lords of Acid, which the only band I had cared about wanted to see. Needless to say, the door opened roughly at around 8:30p (we stood in line for about 30 mins for those that got there at 8p) and lords of acid didn't come on almost at midnight, at lot of standing around and waiting!!!!!
The intimate venue was great to be able to be so up close to the band however the production value was a bit thin: the band and some dancers?
Two great old school bands, TKK and Lords of Acid. One great show.
