CKY
I went to the CKY show August 11th at the Norva (Norfolk, VA). It was an OK show compared to when I saw them in Atlanta a couple of years ago. The Atlanta show was stronger, edgier, and the set list more diverse. This time, I think because of the small venue, small crowd, the fact that it’s Norfolk, they didn’t play as well. What irked me was the fact that their set list was mostly all the stuff from their first 2 albums. All the stuff the kiddies know. I wanted to hear more songs from “An Answer can be Found” and their new album. I was disappointed by this. I felt like they were selling out.
The highlight of the show: someone threw a Michael Jackson t-shirt up onto the stage, so the band broke out with a rockin’ version of “Beat It”.
The band who played before CKY was a Swedish band called Graveyard. They were definitely talented with their melodic strings… very reminiscent of Led Zepplin. I was definitely grooving out to this band.
