Absolution
Ritual
Pinnacle to the Pit
Faith

No prob. I like using that site to see what bands are playing if Im gonna see them (and I generally dont know much of their music. Other bands Id rather go in blind) and when I want to remember what songs I saw at a past concert.

Yeah, I was there for Ghost. I'm a huuuuge fan of what he's/they're doing and bringing to the table in today's scene. I didn't know a ton of SOAD a couple months ago, but had loved the "greatest hits" I'd heard, so I started listening to them a lot at the gym and such.

There was a segment of their set where it got repetitive and all started running together, but by and large I really admire how they write so abstractly and put whatever the hell they want into a song. Radio/Video and BYOB are two great examples. My only real complaint is that I'm not sure they put as much thought into pacing their setlist as they could've -- it was weird to have Lonely Day, Lost in Hollywood, and even Questions (which has its soft stuff) all right at the end instead of spaced throughout where the show could've breathed a lot better. At some point over 90 minutes of a System set, I got desensitized for a bit.

SOAD is my favorite band of all time, but I want them to stop touring because it only makes me sad to see them exist but know theyll NEVER make another album.

Awesome! Caught SOAD's first reunion show back in 2011, fucking awesome concert. They played most of the s/t/Toxicity/Hypnotize/Mezmerize but nothing off STA. Would love to see Ghost sometime soon too.

Ghost puts on an incredible show, highly recommend. They were tighter than SOAD by a good bit, though its not as if I was anticipating meticulous craft from live SOAD.
