my distaste and hatred for metallica grows thanks to fuckin hetfield.
i must warn you before venturing forward with this counting crows show from 2000. the warning being that adam duritz’s banter is downright embarrassing and almost unlistenable. i dont think there’s been a more awkward musician/crowd intercation since gg allin flung his feces into the crowd at one of his shows. even with that said, its still a pretty great show and setlist and presumably one of the last before everything went to shit.
me believes its an fm broadcast from the newport centre, newport, wales, on 2.25.00.
i had been searching for the most disturbing shane photo i could find but opted for the one above. mostly due to the fact that i didnt want to put you all through that kind of emotional/optical torture.
here are the pogues on the dutch kro “op slag van maandag” which was broadcasted on 3.22.87, but performed on 12.1.86.
of all the shows i have been witness to, none really compare to the almost religious experience that was a 16 horsepower show. david eugene edwards was akin to a snake handling preacher when he was onstage - you can kind of get a sense his fervor by the above photo.
here they are on some radio station in amsterdam on 1.26.00.
hola amigos! time for nighty nighty for yours truly. so whilst i am laying my head, dig on this very cool ween show from the enmore theatre in sydney on 3.1.08 - its a fm broadcast, btw.
thanks everyone for the well wishes and such. so, last night at about 2.30 am lily marie was born. everyone is doing just fine. its amazing how much you forget between child one and child two. both of us were acting like we have never done this shit before, but mac was born 3.5 years ago and its all such a blur now. until later…
mogwai seems kind of appropriate for tonight. so, here is a 3.11.98 fm broadcast.
i dont believe i have ever heard heard a les savy fav song and i am not sure why. have always heard great things about em, but we have yet to meet up until now. are they really indie rock’s best live band? i only ask cause that’s what the press release proclaims. anyway, the only real reason i even ventured forward was cause attached to said email/press release was a cover of superchunk’s “precision auto,” which i of course i had to check out. i can say that it sounds like “precision auto” but nothing special to be honest. i digress, on 4.29 les savy fav is releasing a digital only copy of their new years eve show from the bowery which they have entitled after the ball drops. they do a bunch of cool covers, i must admit, which include pixies’ “debaser,” nirvana’s “sliver,” misfit’s “astro zombies,” and a couple more. should be worth checkin out, even for a non fan like myself. here be a few live performances from the archives. for you fans out there where would one start with in regards to the les savy fav catalogue?
i was at this pearl jam show which took place at the metro all the way back on 3.28.92. i was but a wee lad, all of 18, and was under the influence of mushrooms, which just so happened to be my first time indulging in such an activity. i wasn’t that fond of it, to be honest, and i only took shrooms one other time. i really didnt want to the second time but it was a matter of getting laid or going home alone - i chose the former. what i remember of that night is that we walked from what used to be the damen, on the corner of damen and roscoe, to her apartment on lake and around ashland - which is a pretty decent walk @ 3 am especially 12 years ago when some of those areas of chicago weren’t what they are today. forgive my reminiscing, this is the xrt broadcast of said show, but not the entire show.
note to self: next time you purchase a dresser from ikea plan on investing close to 4 hours putting it together and need a nap afterwards.
anyone know what happened to rbally yet again?
here be spoon on 1.23.08 @ the enmore theatre, in newtown, sydney, australia. it’s a fm broadcast, fyi. btw, they have a new remix ep of “dont you evah” which features remixes by ted leo, matthew dear and a few other choice artists. btw part II, it looks as if merge has a new download store, which looks awesome/not good for my budget. anyway, check out the spoon store here. btw, part III the rosebuds are offering up a free remixed version of their night of the furies via the merge store. dont think i ever listened to the rosebuds, but i guess now is my chance.
anyone have a waffles of what invite they can share? por favor! i am a well versed in such things and keep excellent ratios...love you..
