Last night my friend asked me if I wanted to go to 311 today for free. I said OK. So that's cool.
Pittsburgh, Chevrolette Ampitheater.
I don't listen to their music much. I do enough to realize the kickazzness of P-nut, so that should be worth the free alone.
The rapper guy is kinda annoying, I only dig his vocals when he harmonizes with singy guy... OOh Nick Hexum, I just remebered his name. Go me.  And the last song on their first album is bad ass. I forget what it's called though.
Heh, I'm obviously a fan.

I hated the crowd. Take 1 part ambacrombie and fitch take 1 part hippie/stoners mix, serve chilled. Everyone kept dancing like they were Eminem. And there were "hippie mosh pits" which were hilarious. They just kinda lightly shoved each other.

If you truely are a fan its cool to see them pull crazy songs out of their hat. They have an impressive set list. Chad sexton is always a treat also. |

That's definitely on my "List of Things To Do Before I Die", somewhere behind "Attending a 311 Halloween Show", "Attending 311 Day", and "Meeting 311".

Still my fav CD, though alot of people didn't like it, is Transistor. And I can't wait for their 311 Day DVD to come out in October!!! 311's got the boom, y'all!!

P-Nuts bass was almost all low end, and some high, no mids. It sounded good, until he slapped and it was just a low warble.

The Roots put on a great show, their bassist soloed for awhile, sounded like he mixed a little of Portrait of Tracy into his solo. I also liked the drum solo, it built up as the percussion player, and other instruments joined in.
311 was a good show. Pretty kickass, I only had a lawn seat though, and I like being closer to the stage, but whatever. Chad Sexton is a great drummer, I like his style.
He also soloed, and the rest of the band brought out concert Tom drums and they put on a little Blast-like ditty. It was surprising and pretty cool.
