 Topic: Three to Support Porcupine Tree on NA Tour
Posted: September 03 2007 at 12:26 |
Three's myspace, as well as individual venue websites, show that they will be supporting PT on this upcoming North American trek after they finish the Scorpions tour.
So just a head's up.

I wasn't too impressed with them the last time they came through the US with PT. They should have found another band or do a two-part show (kind of the like the recent Rush concerts).
Just my opinion.

Three were okay. Not interesting enough for me to want to see them again....it sounded to me like thay played the same song over & over for about 45 minutes. Not much variety to their sound at all.
but looks like I will be seeing them twice since I'm seeing PT twice on the upcoming NA tour.

3 was with them last tour, and when I saw them Joey (lead singer/guitar) was the only one there, and his bandmates were sick or absent for another reason. He did the whole opening show himself with an acoustic guitar, and played it, what looked and sounded like, slap guitar. It was actually quite interesting, and he interacted a lot with the audience, got us all pumped for PT at the end, but his show was quite good too. He was really amazing at guitar and on the last song broke strings and continued playing until he destroyed every single string and carried the guitar off by the chords. He even did a song about why his bandmates weren't there, which was hilarious. (It was even funnier 'cause his drummer's name was josh and I'm a drummer and I'm Josh!).
But yeah, he was good alone, I'd like to hear what he sounds like with the rest of the band.

Honestly I would much rather have seen the singer play alone then the whole band. They were just....underwhelming. They didn't get me juiced for PT at all, I just wanted them to leave so Steve Wilson & co. would get on stage.

progressive rock and rural tranquility don't match. true or false?

Sounds a bit like a self fulfilling prophecy ...
