Another plus was that I had to opportunity to meet Sin Quirin and talk about his career and music projects. Not only is he a great guitarist, he was very humble and appreciative of the words we exchanged.
If you want to see Ministry, this is the time to do so for this is the best Ministry yet. Thank you for the great mix of old and new songs! The last time I saw the metal band Ministry was at The Forum in London more than ten years ago, so when they came to Manchester Academy in I was super excited to be able to see them again.
Ministry came on stage and began their set with "Just One Fix. Al Jourgensen, the lead singer, kept the audience going by shouting, pointing at us, and jumping up and down. His energy worked because the audience was wild! Jourgensen has talent and his voice, as always, was beautiful when accompanied by the saxophone. The best part of the show, for me anyway, was when they played "Supernaut" in their encore.
I really enjoyed myself, and so did the rest of the packed venue. Ministry has been one of my favorites for a couple of decades and it was exciting to be 15 feet away from the stage. So, now I've seen Ministry twice, believe it or not, I would see the band again. Hopefully there will be another world tour, similar to the DeFiBriLaTouR Tour, which is when I saw them the second time and, in my opinion, was the best of two really good live shows.
In particular, the scene where Trump is depicted as a Tyrannosaurus;a very large bipedal carnivorous dinosaur of the late Cretaceous period, with powerful jaws and small clawlike front legs, with head cocked back and mouth eide open spewing fire towards crooked Hillary who is depicted as Godzilla spewing rays.
You can't help but laugh. Be forewarned, you get what you pay for. If I hadn't had to work the next day, I'd have kicked it at late bar for planet earth night. Riviera badly needs a rehab. Just saying but, their sound system is decent considering the venue. Moody metal rockers Ministry have experienced a varied and interesting career featuring beginnings in synth pop before finding industrial metal as well as various lineup changes.
However anybody who has seen the band recently will agree that the current quintet seem to be the most succinct and skilled thus far. They have a discography that now spans thirty years so the selection process is complex yet by the sounds of the audience's cheers they have made good decisions. They play with such intensity though that the crowd is instantly engaged with the musicians and the music almost becomes secondary as it is equally thrilling to watch them work.
There are big cheers though for early singles such as '99 Percenters' and 'Watch Yourself'. The band use this energy to attack the instruments with even more ferocity. They have the crowd just where they want them by the time the encore comes and they drop 'N. O' and 'Just One Fix' in quick succession. A band that has been through a difficult past shows this evening they have a bright future.
However, their set didn't disappoint one bit, being a great mix of electronica, screaming guitars, growling vocals and thumping, turbulent drums! As Rob Zombie is often wont to display a movie style backdrop during his concerts, so did Ministry provide those theatrics, undoubtedly a medium which inspired Zombie to use the same type of props himself.
Instead of a Halloween movie motif, however, Ministry included a backdrop with drug and politically charged scenes that were equally disturbing in their own way. The band charged through approximately fourteen songs all told in their set with hardly a break in between.
One part I especially liked was the lighting effects which at one point showed drummer AAron "Shredder" Rossi silhouetted with fog machine effects in force simultaneously!
If I can't upload a picture, then my absolutely phenomenal once in a lifetime story would never make sense. Except to Sin, the two Christian ladies, myself and whoever else thought that this concert was, indeed, a remarkable night from the very onset of it. That is an absolute lack of foresight.
There was a longstanding debate about that Cuz that's where I got my money from I got the money from Jesus. And now I'm home recuperating from seeing the only Ministry to attend EVER as well as agreeing that it's very true indeed Have been to many Ministry concerts through the years.
All of them have been amazing. Meet and greet once after Al releaseed his book. They are awesome musicians and super friendly people. I always have a blast seeing them live and rarely ever miss a show. One of my favorite concerts was Revco opening for Ministry in It was hands down the loudest concert ever! My ears are ringing to this day : After the show my boyfriend and his buddy sounded like they had extreme lisps. I was laughing my butt off in the backseat. Wasn't sure if my ears were making them sound like that or their ears were so jacked that it caused them to talk that way.
It was extremely amusing to me. Uncle Al kept calling Revco 'The fluff band opening for Ministry'. Was blown away. I found that trying to sing along with the newer material was a bit difficult as, I know mostly the older stuff.
But, I was there to support the band, be entertained and, bang my head , and dance so, that was totally the case. If you like their music, and enjoy head banging, totally worth the while. Al Jorgensen, is apparently not anywhere near as energetic as before but , shit, give he guy some credit! I WISH, my parents had his energy at this age! It was a mighty good show. Props were cool, and visually very stimulating. But most importantly, they sounded really together.
I want to start by saying I absolutely love Ministry. Have seen them many times, and always have a good experience. That said, when I saw them in Denver, Al was so effed up he could barely stand. Started rambling on about stuff and the band had to prop him up and just keep the show moving along. The show in total was great. Sixxes was better than expected, Laibach was stunning, and the current Ministry lineup was amazing. They played the hell out of it. I was a little disappointed by Al being as messed up as he was.
As a musician myself, I understand being a bit buzzed for the show, and would expect a little partying, but this went a ways beyond that. Pace yourself, Al! And keep on playing. See all videos 3.
