Oho! My last concert was a local thrash metal event, and I'm going to a black metal gig tomorrow xD I'd say my 'home' is somewhere between goth rock and black metal, but through work and friends I'm knee-deep in the death metal scene & honestly like anything that's melodic and executed well. (Going on a tangent here, but I'm currently trying to hire one of my fave indie artists to create the artwork for a BM band I'm working with & I'm so excited as it would mean a lot to me to have the cover made by a female artist in this male dominated genre!!)

The 70s Prog is a little too advanced for me :3 but I did see Steve Hackett & Band (with special guest Nad Sylvan) and had a good time! I hope to catch The Pineapple Thief on their upcoming tour; a more modern & mainstream twist on British Prog - not sure if that's something you'd like, but they're an amazing live band and really sweet guys.
And oh yes, totally agree that not being limited by physical & logistical things opens new worlds to artistic creativity! Although, to be fair, some classical composers really pushed the limits of what's possible haha

That's very nice! I've been slacking a bit on the gigs recently, the last gigs were The Damned, New Model Army and The Chats. All very good! And I have the UK Subs coming up. But they're all 'close' to my home. In 2017 I travelled to Berlin to see Miyavi, I can't even imagine where I got that energy from lmao.

I do also think 70s prog is complicated tbh. My mother calls it "Music for clever people" but I mostly find it cute how much nostalgia and humor is in there! I'd love to see Steve Hackett live, I think it would be real nice. I did see Peter Gabriel last year, he was STUNNING. He's one of my favorite bald old men. I will definitely check out The Pineapple Thief because I am always on the lookout for new stuff to get involved with.

Nice! New Model Army is still on my bucket list. When I was young and full of life v.v I also travelled further for shows (like Miyavi in London ha, but tbf I turned it into a whole city trip), nowadays, I mostly stick to my state. Last year I went to Maastricht for a festival by public transport... the exhaustion was real. Inexplicably, we thought "Sure, let's wake up at 05:30 [because you need to factor in hours of delay with our train system] and see the first band at 12:30". We barely made it to the venue at 15:00. Going again this year & already tired just thinking about the journey :')

Steve Hackett was amazing live! His skill & talent really shone; and he was immersed in his musical zone with the entire audience vibing along! I imagine it to be similar with Peter Gabriel - these people are just so professional and on their own level, even for someone like me who's not too familiar with the music, it's an exceptional experience.
