Sonic Youth: Classic or Dud/S&D?

Sad to see this being played out in public

yeah it's really kind of shitty

i always assumed sy were p rich. like for real i have seen pictures of them or w/e and thought "i bet they live really, really well." not like celebrity-rich, but dual-income nyc yuppie rich. it doesn't seem hard to conjure up a handful of revenue streams for either of them that totals, oh, let's say, $400k/yr combined. a couple of mid-level lawyers in a midwestern city make that.

yeah yuppie rich sounds right. but i mean, when you talk about well known musicians being "rich," that usually means something completely different.

Oh for sure, but I'm a little surprised to hear that ppl might've thought they were living record to record

iirc h4a has multiple yo la tengo posts

him and morbs should do a lil yo la tengo conversation, a...canks morbs convo (pronounce like yo la tengo)

i always assumed thurston came from family money, the way i would anyone named "thurston"

"and sent their daughter to an elite artsy boarding school"

she went to the same school my kids go to until high school. its hardly elite. it costs money, but not fancy boarding school money. and its not a boarding school. and she went to a public charter school outside Northampton. it's free. for the performing arts. great school! she's a great kid. very nice and normal. and cool.

Yeah, to be clear, I'd assumed they had a comfortable and stable middle-class lifestyle, not that they were living record to record.

yeah i'm genuinely (surprisingly) disappointed at this, i'd chalked up divorce to their kid was old enough for college and so they finally got divorced like a ton of folx do, kinda disgusted to read thurston living out mid-life cliche. loved demolished thoughts though.

YOKO IS THE OTHER WOMAN

He wasn't singing "Ono Soul," he was singing "Ono's Hole."

Ever since I realized the punny nature of his name (he's thirstin' more, maaaan) I've wondered if he gave it to himself.

And the other guy is leerin' all da time

My bff met Eva and said she was very very nice.

yeah even if she's 'the other woman' ppl shouldn't lose sight that the douchebag here is thurston moore

i mean, the first "story" i heard was that he'd gotten the other woman pregnant, but it turns out that she is a single mom, so I think better of him, than I initially had.

They left the restaurant for Issue Project Room, an arts space in Gowanus, where Byron Coley, a rock critic, read from his novel-in-progress. Ms. Pearl had met Mr. Coley before and was impressed by his encyclopedic music knowledge; she declared him “the man.” During the reading, she and her band mates sipped Sierra Nevadas and laughed knowingly at references to ESP Records and Roxy Music. “I can’t wait to read the whole thing!” she said. Afterward, in the lobby, she found that Mr. Moore and Ms. Prinz had left without a goodbye. “That’s Thurston,” she sighed.

i can totally see him doing the aspie scram tbh

kill yr idols folx

god that movie suuuuuuuucked

ok, the Lydia Lunch and Glenn Branca segments were good

Kim wrote a tweet yesterday about the Elle article but she deleted it, I was gonna copy paste it here but now it's gone.

She said it over exaggerated her relationship with Kurt and something else.

ayiyi. I hung out with Eva a few times years ago.

I wonder if Thurston will be compelled to give his side of the story now this is out there? It could get very messy.

next Arthur Magazine cover story: "Thurston Tells All -- In The Form Of A POEM."

Feel like a hypocrite since I roll my eyes at any and all celebrity gossip, but am completely interested and nosy when it comes to this

i get the feeling they're on relatively good terms but she just wanted to air him out since people had been asking about it and he probably can't say much in response

considering he was the one doing the cheating, there probably isn't much to say, as he seems like the kind of guy that really doesn't want to look like an asshole.

She pointed out a couple factual errors the author had got wrong... one was where her next show was going to be and another one about... something. My memory has really gone out the window.

when you threw out that trash, man, was the bag in your hand? did you dump it?

Good one.

So, I'm not really sure, but I think that this is the same person who thurston is schtupping, which only makes the whole thing much more amazing:

I think they got divorced? sarahell mentions that she is a single mom upthread.

Updated 9/6/2009

she recently edited Alan Moore's 25,000 Years of Erotic Freedom

I know the wedding was from 2009, but, still, she is a woman who was married to a royal dude and who very likely was still married to him when she started seeing Thurston. Unless their marriage was really, really short, which I guess is possible.

let's face it...that post could have been a LOT longer

Ayo INTERNET

Several Dutch trashy tabloids would actually be interested in this, seeing the story Askance linked to. I am guessing it will take them at least two years to find out for themselves.

Two big revelations after reading these last few posts:

1) Demolished Thoughts is actually pretty nice!
2) The possibility that our future king might have met Thurston Moore!

I know the wedding was from 2009, but, still, she is a woman who was married to a royal dude and who very likely was still married to him when she started seeing Thurston. Unless their marriage was really, really short, which I guess is possible.

Yo dawg, Kim specifically mentions she was dating an erstwhile bandmember (initials: Jim O'Rourke) when Thurston started seeing her.

she sounds nice

since the conclusion of that Elle interview ends w/ Rodham worship, and my last-ever SY show meeant enduring Thurston bumbling through some praise for Obama, my long-held belief that T and K are both fairly stupid people is confirmed.
