Post-Rock Thread (ambient, jazz, cassette, single, genre)

[Petula07]

Hi everybody

My first concert of 2011 were post-rock legends - Godspeed You! Black Emperor.
Mmmm, what a band! Totally unique and incomparable to another post-rock bands. It was very hypnotic evening. I am glad I had a chance to see them live. If you have a chance, it's worth to go!
It was about 110 minutes and they said nothing, no hello or bye. They just came, played and went away from stage. People weren't sorry about it because the music is what everybody came for.
