MBV Comeback.

no MBV no peace
know MBV know peace

If it's MBV at this thing, pulling the plug before they get to "Soon", they should win the Nobel Prize.

You went where I dared not go.

stephen you didn't actually copy in the dictionary definition of "pernicious" instead of say trying to figure out what I might have meant by it did you

I know you didn't do that

i'm not sure any definition of "pernicious" that you could give would fit the Thurston scenario, regardless.

sigh

would copy in various OED exempla, many admittedly obscure (nb by obscure I don't mean "concealed in darkness") that are sort of divaspeak for "hateful" but will you be content with "he is a pernicious citizen, said M. Curius, who cannot be contented with seven acres" (Hume, Pol. Disc. 1782)? sorry if you're excited to see psychic hearts or something, no harm intended yo

obscure (nb by obscure I don't mean "concealed in darkness")

ha ha ha very funny :P

i live in texas, i'd be lucky to make it to ny for that

I'd be against this kinda thing but I just can't wait for this timeless classic to be performed live.

Sarcasm?

ha, yeah, that record is OK, but it's certainly one of the odder choices to be played live in its entirety ... i'd like to hear thurston do that "elegy for dead rock stars" tune live ...

Sarcasm yeah.

Soz to be all British and that.

sarcasm generator still on.

Sonic Youth has stopped with the Daydream tour and are back to new material;

And they did 40 minutes of post-Rourke material as the encore for the Daydream DLB shows.

Part of me can't help but think one of the most awesome things in the world would be

yer man Trayce saw They Might Be Giants in Melbourne six years ago, where for the second night of a two-night run they opened by playing Flood in its entirety. But they hadn't announced it and apparently people were baffled so they never did it again.

(they'd done pre-announced, sold-on-that-basis Flood shows in the States before.)

Still no indication that MBV aren't going to be playing new shit at these shows!

ATP New York sold out in about 5-10 minutes...

we all wasted our time here, then

well, it also means that additional tour dates are more likely to be announced sooner than later :)

Additional tickets will go on sale in the coming weeks, with accommodations in a nearby hotel.

= next week, sez customer service.

So they're supposed to be planning "6-8 US Dates" dunno if that's including ATP, but I'm assuming another New York show, LA, San Francisco, Chicago maybe?, uhh???? Toronto or Boston/Philly/Seattle/Montreal/any ideas??

RED ROCKS

6-8 US Dates would not include Canadian dates, assuming there are any.

I think LA and Chicago are certain, and SF and Austin are probable. I think NY is likely, but not guaranteed, especially if there are single-day tix to ATP. Other possibles - Boston, Philly, DC, Seattle or Portland (or Vancouver), Detroit (or Toronto). Twin Cities? Miami or Atlanta?

one would presume MBV would be providing intensities in at least ten cities...

pocatello, helena, cheyenne, ft. collins, chico, and provo FTW

i like zeppo myself
