RIP From Monument To Masses

[Sittingsideways]

Just saw their last show in San Francisco at the GAMH. I had never seen a last show of any band. It was very bitterweet... had never seen them before and they put on one hell of a show. I've never listened to a instrumental band that was so powerful and so good with timing changes. They were a different kind of band, more so than any other band i've ever said that about.

That being said, has anyone else ever seen a "Last show ever" from a band? This one had alot of emotion, the bands family was there and the guitarist got choked up thanking everyone. They had some stories here and there, but mostly just left alot of emotion on the stage. Was a great show. Plus i got a 10 dollar t-shirt.

that sucks. A little heavy on the political emphasis, but at times I really enjoyed the mood and atmosphere they created. Damn RIP

a very sweet send-off.

As for last shows; I think I saw Woven's last show. Ory drunkenly whispered in my ear that he was done about a year ago. I haven't checked on Woven since...I think he's sticking with that side project he's had for now.

Ah, hmmm... guess I misunderstood. I was under the impression that this was just the final show they would be able to do for a while. Oh well. Liked the band, was good stuff.

Caught that show and was angry i missed them. This made up for it greatly.

The guitarist made a comment that they would all go on to make interesting things. Good to hear they're all still thinking about music.
