Took my kid to see Rob Zombie, Alice Cooper, Ministry and Filter last night. Rob Zombie sounded the best and visually, it rivaled KISS, Alice Cooper, and other bands I've seen with props on stage. It was like a horror movie on stage and just brought such energy. Not sure what amps Riggs was using but sounded like Recto to me but I could be wrong. I never saw hom with John 5 so can't compare.

I’ve managed to see Zombie 4-5x over the years as he’s been on the bill with others I was going to see, first time was with Korn back in ‘98 or ‘99. Dude always puts on a good show, never once heard a dip in the quality of his voice or anyone onstage. Fun shows for sure. Not sure if he still has his wife dancing topless behind him but when I was an 18 year little shit that was pretty damn cool.

That is awesome! It was my first time seeing him and exceeded expectations. He had videos of her behind him, lol. Ministry was like Motorhead loud, lol.
 
I seen Rob last year in camden, great show, john5 played guitar, i enjoyed it alot, also seen white zombie at roseland in the mid 90s. I noticed rob had some different visuals on the screens for some of the songs this tour and the setlist had a couple different songs. Ive seen Rob 4xs total and he always brings alot of energy and puts on a good show.

The song choices were outstanding.
 
Nice! I'm going to see them on Wednesday night at White River. Glad to hear they're still on point. Probably will go get merch when Ministry comes on ?
 
I remember seeing him at I think an ozzfest a long time ago and he kicked ass and I’m not even into him
 
i'm gunna be the contrarian here... i've seen rob 3 times between 1998 and 2005. he was like vince neil dressed up like captin jack sparrow. Fucker bounces around the stage singing every 5th word, and throwing in a lot of "YEAH's" where they didn't belong. He sounded sloppy and winded. The band and the stage show were flawless, but idk about Rob. Maybe he's gotten better, that was 20 years ago.

Good idea! Don't get me wrong it was a cool bucketlist to see them but they incorporate a lot of noise and it was so loud. Like bring in a construction zone.

He was definitely on point at the show I saw and seemed to be having a blast and was joking between songs, etc. Some guy there was telling me that he is a huge fan and that the stage show is way bigger than what he saw before and more of the hits.

Saw him last year and it was the same thing. He was out of breath most of the night.

When I saw him on the 99 korn tour he was amazing.
 
I liked White Zombie way more when I saw them in '96, but when I saw Rob in '99, he put on a good show also. I always like how he designs the show to be an experience.

I would like to see Ministry. Love them, but never saw them live. The Symphony of Noise is one of my favorite parts, lol.
 
It was a great show! Easily best sound guy of my last 10+ shows...
Sorry about the crappy pics, hard to get the right moment with all the lighting. Got good video, though.

Filter: Wasn't bad, awesome grindy bass tones. New to me songs, mostly.
A+ for an opening act, but probably not going to pick up a vinyl just yet.

Ministry: Honestly; wasn't terrible.
Sat somewhere between Motorhead and Rammstein.
Good stuff, but Al is still a leprechaun toolbag.

Alice Cooper: Funk Yeah!
It's Alice Cooper with a great cast of seasoned musicians. B+ Theatrics, A+ tones.
Nita says hello to y'all!

Rob Zombie: Good stuff. Wasn't at his peak, but great show either way.
He sounded like Dave Mustaine, though... Best theatrics in a very long time for me. Kick drum could have been toned down a little.
Stellar stage presence except for the guitarist. Evil clown bassist: A+, Original guitarist: Q-. Wished John 5 was there...
A+ Theatrics, B+ Tones.

Overall it pushed Dragonforce out of the top spot for my last 10 or so shows (Dragonforce, NIN, Deftones, Gojira, Slipknot, CoF, Megadeth, Trivium, Lamb of God, Korn, Tool... etc) Tons of fun, recommended.

Nope, she’s the blonde woman from all his movies, Sheri Moon.

Got it. That wasn't her. Did some digging, found out it was a chick called Simône Demone.

Body is tight AF and apparently she likes watching a dam squirt :sneaky::


EDIT:
Found the show! GMM 2011.
She shows 'em at 17m44s:


Since I wasn't too close to the stage (not like Mr. Cameraman here), you get why I may have pegged her as somwehat Asian.
