I Saw King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard | CONCERT REVIEW 

I imagine Fantano in the concert, meanwhile all the people are having a good time, he’s with his arms crossed, analyzing everything the band does with a cold look in his eyes

"The band delivered every single track without missing a beat" But remember: Once they're Mr. Beat they only miss a beat

King Lyrical and the Spiritual Miracle

Melonsnake Melonsnake Melonsnake Melons me

I love this continuing saga of Anthony being unable to pronounce "Polygondwanaland".

Melon I saw you at this concert. You were bribing the security into letting you in by giving them minimalist wallets instead of paying for a ticket.

You're still wrong about Murder of The Universe.

So when do we get a Worst To Best King Gizzard video?

Milwaukee's set was nuts. Cookie sang down the sink, Cavs surfed the crowd, and they ended on a 30 minute head on/pill jam that had a few other tracks nestled in.

They just fullscreened Windows Media Player from windows XP on the big screen

Saw King Gizzard on their last tour at the Showbox Sodo in Seattle, it was me and my girlfriend’s first fight. It was a fist fight, we won.

Man, this concert was so good, especially when Stu burned down the venue.

Some bands can't recreate the magic produced in the studio. Some legends produce live music that can't be reproduced in a studio. King Gizz and Liz Wiz are that rare breed. They are better live than they are in the studio. It's that simple. These are talented musicians. I have nothing further to add.

The mosh pit in Chicago was f-ing crazy. I felt like I was about to die.

King Gizzard is the best live show currently on tour.

Best rock band of the decade.

You're so lucky to get the river last dude

I saw them live in 2018, they killed it! Also thanks Anthony for introducing me to them with your Nonagon Infinity review. Can‘t live without the Gizz

No love for the great opening bands Stonefield and ORB?

Anthony: 'The narrative is too intrusive on Murder of the Universe.' Me: I WOULD LIKE TO DIE I WOULD LIKE TO VOMIT

You should hit up a black midi concert

Just saw them in Central Park and it was insane! Highly recommend!

Anfony, tell me, what's the top 5 shows you've been to? What's 5 you would like to see that you haven't?

Hey Anthony, I met you outside of the venue. Glad you enjoyed the show!

I just saw them in seattle, it was amazing felt like I was going to die

Would love more of these, this was excellent! I missed them this time, but have seen them twice. It was great to have this to fill me in.

King Gizz is always one of my favorite shows of the year when I can see them. Their sets flow so effortlessly. The crowd is always fun and it feels like everyone is experiencing something special.

I totally saw you there!!!! I didnt want to interrupt your experience though.

Talked to Cavs in Montreal, says he just wings it every night. God damn it lol

I love that Gizzard changes up their setlist with each show. I went to the Seattle show and they played a much different show song wise. They opened on Self-Immolate which was super cool.

really great review, love to see coverage of my favourite band

I went to see them at Perth, Australia last minute before they closed the tickets online. Oh boy, I don't remember much of the night, I ended up making a new friend and bought the tour shirt. I really enjoyed their concert and line-up.

I've had the pleasure of seeing them live twice, and I found in a festival setting they have more energy. Having just a short time for their set they really go all out in every song and it's super impressive

Can’t wait to become an altered beast at their tour date in Austin on September 4th - see you fellow Gizzard Wizards there!

Just saw them in New York. My favorite part of the show was when the electronic signs for the venue changed from white to dark blue and everyone thought they were dimming the lights and started cheering for a random sound guy who picked up a guitar.

Can't wait to see them next tuesday!!!

I’m so excited! I’m seeing them tomorrow in Philly

Saw them earlier this year in Sydney, just after self immolate dropped. The crowd was very high energy, and the set list really leant itself to a pit focused crowd, with tracks from Nonagon and MOTF being weaved together. Definitely my favourite band both live and in studio.

I got to see them a few weeks ago in SF, I’m glad you saw them yourself and made a review pointing out what makes them such a great live performance

"the band's energy wasn't too high, it wasn't too low" How dare they

They ended the Denver show with Bitter Boogie and it faded out into like a 5 min jam with Ambrose's vocals, it was sexy

ur show sounds amazing 😭😭

I'm going to see them in Austin in 3 days. Thank you for this review. It's got me even more hyped!

Murder of the universe is literally perfect lmao

Really regret missing this show. But by the time I went to the page to buy a ticket general admission was already sold out :( Glad you enjoyed it Anthony :)

the band of our times, ladies and gentlemen. if they were making music back in the hay-day of rock, everyone would bow.

Seeing them in October and this review has me so hyped

I'm going to see them in October! Really hyped for it!

Seeing them in Dallas next Friday. SO excited!

I’m seeing them this Saturday in DC!! Couldn’t be more excited.

Seen them 6 times or so (luckily live in sydney so they frequent here). Each gig has been fantastic!!! They bring the hype of proper metal shows with the sounds of psych rock. The crowd is always rowdy but friendly. Definitely a must see once in your life

fuuuuuuck! i was gonna go to that concert but i wasnt available next time Gizz come around, ill be there and hopefully seeing ya, melon man

Can’t wait to see them in October

I thought that was you behind me. I was going to ask for a pic but you snuck out right before the end of the last song

I wish they played Tezeta for this show just so you could come to appreciate Sketches of Brunswick East after you meme’d on it because it’s fantastic live

I saw them last Friday in Milwaukee, they rocked the house. Big medley for the closer was lovely, along with the new albums

Saw them last night at Summerstage (Central Park NYC). Great show and I completely agree with all of your comments. Looking at the footage from your show, I would say the outdoor setting really enhanced the set as it gave it more of a festival feel. I have never seen them live before but looking at some of the performances like the KEXP ones on youtube I would say that they are just laid back. I would love to see them again but the dates don't work for me this tour. Next time around for sure.

They are so great live! I saw them last year and I'm definetely going to see them this year too

Saw Gizzard in a tiny venue of about 200 people at the end of 2017. Insane show, feel incredibly lucky to have seen them in that setting

Hey Melon! I Was at the New Haven concert on the 27th that you were at! There were some rumors that you were coming to the concert because they heard that you were in the area from some concertgoers. I wasn't close to you (I think you were in the second row of the floor from what I heard), because I was in the mosh. It became confirmed when you posted the pic on your snapchat (I saw it on the subreddit). There was actually some guys going around looking for you, I thought you were in the balcony, but that turned out to be false. I still can't believe you didn't stay to meet the band after the show, they came out 20 minutes or so after the show and met the fans. I think it would've been pretty cool if you showed up, and even cooler if Stu or one of them recognized you. Anyway, it's super cool that we were at the same show!

That show was amazing and I was there too! Crazy that you were there

I was there pretty close up to the stage on the left. Curious how you enjoyed Stonefield and ORB. Got to speak with the sound manager, everything sounded great so i had to give him credit.

Twin drummers have always blown my mind and was a part of what stoked my interest in Gizz. I'm no drummer but that seems like it would be super difficult to accomplish, and they do it effortlessly. I really like the effect of it on songs where they alternate hi-hats.

Huge king gizz fan, loving your positivity about them I feel the same.

I was there! Show was amazing I’m glad you also enjoyed it

It's crazy seeing them playing huge venues like this. I've seen them 3 times in their hometown Melbourne, every time at small intimate venues and every time better than the last. I imagine something might be lost when the entire venue isn't one big mosh, but I'm so proud that they're able to do this overseas. Also Anthony, it's pronounce Moog like 'Vogue', and I believe the keyboard they're using on stage is a Nord Electro

you have great communication skills. sending love through the space from Argentina

I'm going to see them this weekend!

Wow, man. I find that kind of talks very interesting! Thank you

They are on the top of my lists for gigs once bands start touring again.

Killer setlist. I saw them last year, it was also a killer set, but I really need to hear the Rats' Nest songs live. I live pretty close to Melbourne, it's cool to know such a talented and prolific band coming out of there.

Saw them in Toronto this past tour and agreed that it was a fucking blast. Very diverse setlist too, starting with Infest the Rats' Nest songs and transitioning to some lighter stuff and even Tezeta. Very fun crowd too!

Can't wait to see them in October

Saw them in Chicago for the second time...SO GOOD. They never disappoint me. 🤘🏻

I saw them the day of their ITRN album release in Portland and managed to see them again in Chicago a week later! You’re definitely correct about the mix between ages and generations of people going to their shows. It was a pretty amazing thing to witness! Now I want to go to gizzfest

Ah my brother is seeing them on the 4th and I’m so jealous.

Seeing them live in London in october and I can't wait!

Seeing them next month and really looking forward to it, hope they throw in some dream balloon but I'll be happy either way

saw them last year and the crowd had the most manic wild energy ive ever seen, the whole front was in constant moshing motion and it felt like a psychedelic hell

Just got done seeing em in Philly! Best show/set ever!

Thats unreal we saw the same show. Wish I could of said hey but glad you liked the set and performance. Really satisfying to hear sleep drifter.

Going to their Manchester gig in October. Even more excited to see them now!!

5:50 the synths used on Cyboogie were Roland synths (Juno-106) and I believe the vocals go through a Korg Microkorg Vocoder

>never missed a beat Even on Mr. Beat?

I WAS AT THE CHICAGO SHOW BEST NIGHT OF MY ENTIRE LIFE

I saw them last week in Salt Lake. Organ Farmer, Cyboogie, and The River were my highlights. So good

I can't believe I saw these guys live before Anthony, they were great but when it came to his energy everyone seem to have a lot of fun honestly, specially Stu and Ambrose, I can't really imagine this guys being laid back.

I saw their show in Portland, OR two weeks ago. Really awesome, plus it was the day that Infest The Ray's Nest was released, so they played the entire record. Totally agree with most of your points, the crowd was really interesting and one of the most varied audiences I have ever seen.

I'm flying to London to see them in Alexander Hall. It's gonna be one of their biggest shows ever, I'm so excited!

The Milwaukee show kicked ass. It was the best concert I’ve been to.

Just saw them in Asheville and they were on fire! The crowd and venue helped too. Best show I've seen this year

Seen them in a closed space here in Greece last year. Best thing ever!

This is great but where is the love for our other Australian friends? Braindrops has been out for a week now and I'm still waiting for the review.

Saw them in San Francisco! Loved every second!

saw them at Batschkapp Frankfurt am Main, Germany. absolutely amazing show

I missed them when they came to my city back in march D: would love to catch em live

i saw them in Toronto and what you said pretty much describes my concert. Tracklist and general look of the band and overall it was a great show! same with the crowd as well there was a variety of different crowds. Very interesting to see

Cant wait to see them in Philly on May 2nd and then at Bonnaroo in June

Idk if its a melbourne thing, but they have amazing energy when I see them live.. Actually have met all of them individually except for Stu the illusive egg. They are all very chilled and very gracious people.. I think they are great role-models for anyone aspiring to be in the business. If any of the band see this - i’m sorry but no matter how many times I see yall around the city, I will be starstruck every time.

I’m seeing them in New Orleans, I’m so stoked
