I just saw Melt-Banana live...
 

I can't hear a thing! I should wear earplugs next time.

Their guitarist rules.

They should call them Melt Yr Face Banana

Yes, that would be more appropiate. They closed with Shield for Your Eyes, A Beast in the Well on Your Hand.

when i saw them, they opened with "shield for your eyes..." i don't remember much of how i started slamming and how i got out of it to catch my breathe but it was one of the best experience in my life.

best show of the year for me, love melt-banana live; and yeah, agata is probably the best guitartist i've seen live.

saw them on monday, there is not a more fun live band than melt banana, seeing them again next week, it will be my 10th time i think

I was going to see them at either of the London dates, alas financial hard times are here. Enjoy it for me though.

steal some money, they only play here every two or three years

m-b is a band i would gladly see 20 times if i had the chance.

It's the next day and my hearing hasn't properly came back!

They are definitely a fun live band, but not in a jolly happy kind of way. The crowd were well behaved at the gig in A'dam.
No bouncing around, whatsoever. Most eyes were on Agata, that's for sure.

I was right at the front and kept getting bashed into by the copious amounts of MOSHERS.

Saw them last week as well. They're fun, but also a bit of a one-trick pony in my opinion. Every show I've been to (four I think?) has been very much the same. Exactly the same stage talk/banter, the same segment with 7/8/9/whatever short songs, etc... It's a cool trick, but it didn't excite me as much anymore as it did the first couple of times.

Agata is AWESOME.

Really? Must be the Dutch soberness then.

i would be extremely disappointed if there was no bouncing around

In Utrecht people were bouncing. Not me though, I only needed little space.


Extremely disappointed? Why?

because i like to bounce around too

Don't let other people stop you from enjoying a show... bounce on their toes.

You make up for it by headbanging. I've seen it! :D

nah, no headbanging to melt banana... too fast.

Going tonight :D
