i've been waiting for melt-banana to come to europe for literal years and oh man was it perfect. they reached a level of energy where they were genuinely almost too fast to dance to (let alone moshing) - i'm not sure how they do it but damn. i was sweating. the opener was aight but weirdly avoided all palestine messaging (i recommend reading Anna's thoughts on this, too) https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#melt-banana-2026-05-31 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#joey-valence--brae-2026-05-29 Fri, 29 May 2026 20:00:00 +0100 goofy white boys have surprising amounts of swag. the crowd was going pretty crazy, pretty great show altogether. bonus points for the amyl & the sniffers cover https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#joey-valence--brae-2026-05-29 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#tinariwen-2026-04-26 Sun, 26 Apr 2026 20:00:00 +0100 i was a lil unsure since tinariwen is one of the desert blues groups that i vibe with less on recording but they were superb live. great energy, and i loved the dancing guy, very nice for my first time seeing tishoumaren live https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#tinariwen-2026-04-26 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#ditz-2026-04-22 Wed, 22 Apr 2026 20:00:00 +0100 was a lil tired so no moshing for me today but still very enjoyable https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#ditz-2026-04-22 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#yves-2026-04-19 Sun, 19 Apr 2026 20:00:00 +0100 i was expecting the audience to be a lot more hyped??? felt like there were maybe 5 people dancing around at the whole venue https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#yves-2026-04-19 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#crack-cloud-2026-04-17 Fri, 17 Apr 2026 20:00:00 +0100 very danceable-to (even though i was super tired after ploegendienst) and pretty fun. also, sick poster https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#crack-cloud-2026-04-17 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#ploegendienst-2026-04-16 Thu, 16 Apr 2026 20:00:00 +0100 the first of 3 gigs in 4 days with Anna (and a rotating cast of others)! probably the sweatiest i've been after a concert and my glasses got a little fucked in the moshpit but it was all worth it https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#ploegendienst-2026-04-16 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#a-place-to-bury-strangers-2026-04-12 Sun, 12 Apr 2026 20:00:00 +0100 so sick!!! absolutely loved the energy. between destroying a guitar 15 minutes into the set, playing like 5 songs in the middle of the audience, and just generally going crazy, they know how to get the crowd going. also the drummer is hot https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#a-place-to-bury-strangers-2026-04-12 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#poppy-2026-03-22 Sun, 22 Mar 2026 20:00:00 +0100 hurt myself in the moshpit a lil but it was genuinely really fun. quite glad she played crystallized. the second opener was also very solid (esp for nu-metal), but the first one... idk, i think metal core as a genre was a mistake https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#poppy-2026-03-22 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#ichiko-aoba-2026-03-21 Sat, 21 Mar 2026 20:00:00 +0100 absolutely beautiful performance, her voice is just as good live as it is on recordings. not a big fan of seated gigs but it made sense i guess - and at least the venue had amazing acoustics https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#ichiko-aoba-2026-03-21 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#godspeed-you!-black-emperor-2026-03-10 Tue, 10 Mar 2026 20:00:00 +0100 get on stage. play peak for 2 hours. say nothing. leave. played crystallized. the second opener was also very solid (esp for nu-metal), but the first one... idk, i think metal core as a genre was a mistake https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#godspeed-you!-black-emperor-2026-03-10 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#sunflowers-2026-03-04 Wed, 04 Mar 2026 20:00:00 +0100 mid-gig power outage goes crazy. that said, it was quite fun even with me knowing only like 2 songs - they were very energetic. and it was free! https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#sunflowers-2026-03-04 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#igorrr-2026-02-13 Fri, 13 Feb 2026 20:00:00 +0100 very theatrical. not sure it needed the double openers but fun nonetheless. the audience went crazy https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#igorrr-2026-02-13 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#oklou-2025-11-19 Wed, 19 Nov 2025 20:00:00 +0100 with Anna! what a beautiful show. the lights really played well with how intimate her songs are. a few new arrangements to jump around to, also fun. i think she played every song from choke enough, and all the ones i love on recording were even better live. weird opener - almost vibes but a bit of an annoyingly faux-experimental way https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#oklou-2025-11-19 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#slant-2025-11-09 Sun, 09 Nov 2025 20:00:00 +0100 worth travelling 3 hours both ways for two 25 minute sets. insane energy and sick venue too. and i somehow didn't get injured, pretty great for a hardcore punk gig https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#slant-2025-11-09 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#budapest-showcase-hub-2025-10-30 Thu, 30 Oct 2025 20:00:00 +0100 esns but eastern european. i came for silvana estrada, she was really good. besides that, found one more cool artist and the rest were meh https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#budapest-showcase-hub-2025-10-30 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#mass-of-the-fermenting-dregs-2025-10-28 Tue, 28 Oct 2025 20:00:00 +0100 they were so sweet and had so much fun playing and i had so much fun listening wowowowowow https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#mass-of-the-fermenting-dregs-2025-10-28 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#thy-catafalque-2025-10-11 Sat, 11 Oct 2025 20:00:00 +0100 absolutely killed it live. you know it's good shit when a solo project requires 11 additional touring musicians. however, a 122 minute set + a 65 minute opener is a lot of metal for one "sitting" (standing) https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#thy-catafalque-2025-10-11 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#food-house-2025-09-24 Wed, 24 Sep 2025 20:00:00 +0100 hella fun. sick venue. infectious energy. gay as fuck crowd. respectful moshpit. there was a furry in the moshpit. was not expecting to see that ever in my life. bounced around so much it hurt but worth it. also holy shit drinks in prague are CHEAP https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#food-house-2025-09-24 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#sowt-2025-09-19 Fri, 19 Sep 2025 20:00:00 +0100 bwoahhhh these guys are fun and also pretty nice. bonus points for having a real, non-pre-planned encore too https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#søwt-2025-09-19 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#reflektor-festival-2025-09-13 Sat, 13 Sep 2025 20:00:00 +0100 the venue was sick and it kind of made this evening. i have a lot of issues with both hungary and budapest, but i will never say a bad thing about the danube, so getting to watch some post-rock with the river in the background was pretty lovely https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#reflektor-festival-2025-09-13 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#jera-on-air-2025-06-28 Sat, 28 Jun 2025 20:00:00 +0100 nice quiet day in the countryside with Anna!

i'm super happy i let her drag me along to this because it was proooooobably my favourite gig i've ever been to? i really didn't think music could be a "spiritual" experience, but this kinda was. absolutely beautiful throughout - singlehandedly responsible for me getting into post-rock. https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#jambinai-2023-05-31 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#otoboke-beaver-2023-05-17 Wed, 17 May 2023 20:00:00 +0100 also with Anna! my second time seeing otoboke beaver - they are not the moooooost memorable live performers but they do bring a hell of a lot of energy https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#otoboke-beaver-2023-05-17 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#welcome-to-the-village-2022-07-16 Sat, 16 Jul 2022 20:00:00 +0100 with Anna! a fun little festival - i should've come for both days, but alas, i didn't. still a good time though! https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#welcome-to-the-village-2022-07-16 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#primavera-sound-2022-06-02—06 Thu, 02 Jun 2022 20:00:00 +0100 my second time at primavera, crazy stacked as always. day 1 was an absolute mess (very little water, super overcrowded), but besides that, had a great time on the other days. https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#primavera-sound-2022-06-02—06 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#julien-baker-2022-04-16 Sat, 16 Apr 2022 20:00:00 +0100 came here with Anna. not the most exciting live show but it was nice https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#julien-baker-2022-04-16 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#open-mike-eagle-2022-04-14 Thu, 14 Apr 2022 20:00:00 +0100 good art rap, not the most energy but solid performances https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#open-mike-eagle-2022-04-14 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#bambara-2022-03-24 Thu, 24 Mar 2022 20:00:00 +0100 i don't remember this but it's on my list so it happened https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#bambara-2022-03-24 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#alex-g-2020-03-06 Fri, 06 Mar 2020 20:00:00 +0100 not a fan of alex g, so not the most memorable. it's fine though - i mostly came for the opener (who were cool) and at least i got to see a last pre-covid concert https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#alex-g-2020-03-06 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#otoboke-beaver-2020-02-13 Thu, 13 Feb 2020 20:00:00 +0100 i would have probably had a much better time if i didn't end up having to spend half the show texting a friend who was going through a really rough time. both of the bands still killed it though https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#otoboke-beaver-2020-02-13 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#cate-le-bon-2019-11-11 Mon, 11 Nov 2019 20:00:00 +0100 i don't really like cate le bon, i just wanted to get outside to avoid seasonal depression. iirc it did the job https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#cate-le-bon-2019-11-11 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#tom-rosenthal-2019-09-29 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 20:00:00 +0100 i never expected to hear the words "boom boom boom boom it's watermelon time" inside a church https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#tom-rosenthal-2019-09-29 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#tacocat-2019-09-04 Wed, 04 Sep 2019 20:00:00 +0100 not very memorable - certainly not memorable enough for me to write a review 6 years later https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#tacocat-2019-09-04 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#haru-nemuri-2019-06-08 Sat, 08 Jun 2019 20:00:00 +0100 possibly the most fun i've ever had at a concert! this was at the downstage so only about 60 people and haru had INSANE energy. genuinely unbelievable stuff https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#haru-nemuri-2019-06-08 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#screaming-females-2019-03-22 Fri, 22 Mar 2019 20:00:00 +0100 major disappointment - i love some of their albums, but it just didn't hit live idk https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#screaming-females-2019-03-22 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#kero-kero-bonito-2019-03-02 Sat, 02 Mar 2019 20:00:00 +0100 third time seeing kkb, lovely as always. the opener was not bad, not good, but kkb put on an amazing show https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#kero-kero-bonito-2019-03-02 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#lala-lala-2019-02-23 Sat, 23 Feb 2019 20:00:00 +0100 imma be honest, i remember nothing https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#lala-lala-2019-02-23 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#kero-kero-bonito-2018-11-24 Sat, 24 Nov 2018 20:00:00 +0100 kero kero bonito is genuinely one of the best live performers to ever exist, idk what else to say. another respectful af moshpit. also ran into a few ppl i knew so that was cool https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#kero-kero-bonito-2018-11-24 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#moses-sumney-2018-09-25 Tue, 25 Sep 2018 20:00:00 +0100 not incredibly memorable, but decent stuff - kinda what you would expect from moses sumney https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#moses-sumney-2018-09-25 https://silliest.website:3/gigs/#primavera-sound-2018-05-31—06-03 Thu, 31 May 2018 20:00:00 +0100 first time going to a festival, had a blast!
