Well I guess the highlight of this week was the Ministry show last night at the Filmore with Revco. Also on Thursday a tribute night for Ian Curtis at the Eagle Tavern: Leaders of Men and Ghost of Curtis played, two excellent Joy Division cover bands. Leaders has a frontman who looked and acted like Curtis but they did a great job of the earlier stuff and Ghost did a great job overall, playing many great songs their first set and then playing the entire album Closer on their second set.
The pit at Ministry was pretty intense, not bad but just a bit much for this old punker. Very intense show, great great great. Purefect. Kudos to Al Jourgensen for continuing to bring it home to the masses.
Saw the new "Xmen" movie tonight. As a huge X-Men fan, Jean Grey/Phoenix/Dark Phoenix fan, I can only hope that this film took place in an alternate universe I never have to visit again. Fortunately Ian McKellen was sexy and lent gravity an otherwise weightless film. Oh well. The first two are still great.
