Just bought two tickets to go see them in March in Detroit. You guys can suck my **** left handed. This is going to be the best.

Are the Philly tickets already sold out? I CANNOT miss this, dammit!

I read few of the first pages and it kinda made me sad.. People should really listen to the band with thought before making incorrect arguments like "You too can be a genius by playing the same 4 notes for half an hour."

What I like in GY!BE is that you always find something new when listening to the songs you've already heard a thousand times. And the 4 note argument is just wrong. The songs build up with many instruments and emotional melodies that just break you in to pieces (Storm, Moya, Sleep etc.) and the songs usually have three parts that climb up and blend in to the other parts.

I'm really lucky to see them next year. Next month actually if I remember correctly

MINDBLOWING live. So happy to have got the chance to see them, they have total and complete control of their sound and dynamics and it's so impressive to see live. They're streets ahead of most of the bands they're compared to.

Saw them last night. Best experience of my life. I have nothing left to live for. It was mind blowing on absolutely every level. It was worth the price of admission for their projector display alone.

You don't want to know how jealous of you I am right now.

I'd give a teste to see them live, for sure.

I am incredibly pissed off that I won't be able to attend their all ages show in Toronto on the 24th on account of my family traveling to Niagara Falls and me being the only person in my family who likes Godspeed. Ugh, I'm gonna be mad about this for years.

and a silver mt. zion has turned to crap. which only leaves esmerine (the best standing side-project). =/

I am confused as to why some people come into a band thread with the motive to rag on the band.

If you don't like the band, don't go into the thread.
