He looks like the first man to successful replicate the Brian Connolly hair quaff since 1974.

the show is $10-, $14- if you buy will call tickets at ticketmaster. you may want to do that ... there's a pretty big stoner rock contingent in san diego, and the hometown heroes (earthless, not subarachnoid space) are opening, so a lot of people will show up at the door early.
i got my tickets will call.

It was a joke, mostly about how long there set was. We showed up at 10 and they were already playing and went steadily until exactly 12. Then, the few people there started to leave and a guy got on the PA and said that since the A/C was broken, the bar was serving $1 Rolling Rocks and that everyone should stay and see AMT play some more. But, I couldn't hack it, so I left. AMT was at the merch booth and there was a surprisingly huge crowd trying to buy CDRs so I knew it would be awhile. The thought that such a long show was good is definitely evidence of how well they played and how nicely paced everything was. But this is also the opinion of someone seeing AMT live for the first time, so ...

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWK
Highlight for me -- the Neu!/motorik tribute break in that one monster song they always do. It lasted for 10 minutes and reduced any other band's attempt to do same in recent years, from Stereolab to Sonic Youth to whoever, to rubble.
Subarachnoid weren't bad (seen them better, though), Earthless were a revelation and definitely deserve to be seen live.
Marco, I did indeed pass on your best, they were happily appreciative, and Hiroshi thought very highly of grappa.

Subarachnoid Space were boring as fuck. Must have been great for bar sales. It didn't help that the bass player wore a Grateful Dead T - unironically!
AMT were great of course, but by the end I couldn't take any more. Did they do an encore?
― chëshy f cät, Wednesday, 9 June 2004 15:17 (twenty years ago) link
Probably -- I have that around somewhere, must dig it out again.
I was there too.
It was a night for ILX! Not only myself and Elvis T. and Matt Maxwell and you, but Vahid and then famous athlete, who came up to me and asked "Are you Ned Raggett from I Love Music?" I was completely flustered! And I was talking to Mario from Earthless at the time and he probably wondered what the fuck was going on!
Favorite band were Earthless, actually. Why haven't I heard of them before?
Hell, I've been on the Rocket list forever (in that Mario from Earthless is the same Mario in Rocket and formerly with Clikitat Ikatowi) and I only just heard of them the other day -- now I have a fave new band! Emusic.com has the show from last night available -- they have some sorta Clear Channel deal with the Casbah -- while the CDR the band were selling is from a show there earlier in the year, I'm listening to it now. Three tracks, the first is a touch slower than what they played yesterday but still great -- however, they are DEFINITELY a live band, they've got that sheer room-filling explosive feeling down.
Subarachnoid miss Mason Jones a bit, I think. No encore as such from AMT -- just two goddamn hours of noise and wackiness.

They fucking destroyed Chicago's Empty Bottle, last night. Brilliant from start to finish. Frenzied. Brain-flaying. Superconductive. Etc.

this bodes well for my plans tonight! are they freakishly loud or anything? I don't like to wear earplugs, tho I will if I have to.

Very freakishly loud, though it's a loud venue to begin with. Just white noise, at a few points. You could see them playing, but it was just a wall of static.
― winnebago taco, Saturday, 3 April 2010 17:52 (fourteen years ago) link

i've been waiting for a band to end their set like that for my entire life. like not specifically two guitars hanging from the ceiling and feedbacking while the rest of the band go nuts rawkin out, but at least that sort of totally unhinged wave of noise that just grows and grows uncontrollably. these dudes understand sweet motherfucking release more than any band i've ever seen.

Been a while since we updated! Even though they pretty much still do annual tours here, so:

Even better are the California Flashback shows:
