That's one way of meeting people, I suppose.

Minty (Minty), Friday, 9 April 2004 01:17 (twenty-two years ago)

hey & Missy E playing earlier in the same month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cuspidorian (cuspidorian), Wednesday, 14 April 2004 11:54 (twenty-two years ago)

two weeks pass...
hey di - are you still going?, im up just for the weekend of the gig, shacking up on k road with the die!die!die! guys..

chris andrews (fraew), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 04:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Has ANYONE bought tickets for this yet? I'm getting increasingly certain I won't get in, oh well.

Livvie (Livvie), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 12:18 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah i bought mine about 2 weeks ago.. there seemed to be quite a few available at the time, might have changed by now though

chris andrews (fraew), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 20:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, I guess it's not that big a deal if I miss out cause it saves me $65 if I don't get in. Hey Chris this will maybe sound a bit stalkerish but I see you round Christchurch a bit, you prob. don't know who I am though.

Livvie (Livvie), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 09:59 (twenty-two years ago)

I think you'll get in really. I don't think I've ever been IDed at the St James, it's kinda a weird venue. Like if they'd ID you they'd probably have IDed me in the past.

Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 10:19 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey! You should come on AIM. I'm listening to Di on the radio.

Livvie (Livvie), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 11:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah I wouldn't worry about it Livvie, I went to gigs at the St. James when I was underage. I'm not even sure it's an r18 venue, I remember one time they stamped my hand to say I couldn't drink.

Minty (Minty), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 11:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Okay I WILL buy a ticket. Maybe even tomorrow or Friday! As should you all.

Livvie (Livvie), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 12:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah buy a ticket! Serious! Yo! I should sleep!

Mr Mime (Andrew Thames), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 13:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I should be able to afford a ticket next week, if the boys from d1e! d1e! d1e! pay me the money for the power bill, cough cough cough. & yeah, wasn't ID'd at the St James the one time I've been there.

etc, Wednesday, 5 May 2004 15:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I know some people planning to take their nine year old (who's a fan of dirty)

cuspidorian (cuspidorian), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 20:15 (twenty-two years ago)

awesome, looks like a party. i still have no fucking idea who etc is..

chris andrews (fraew), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 20:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah but kids w/ their parents is different. STILL, worth it for a chance to see SY.

Livvie (Livvie), Thursday, 6 May 2004 04:06 (twenty-two years ago)

There you go, bring yr mum

Mr Mime (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 6 May 2004 05:45 (twenty-two years ago)

I had a Sonic Youth dream last night!
they had an afternoon gig before the night they played. They covered Violent Femmes "heartache", a really good hard thrashy song, Kim was drumming, really amazingly.
But I started realising I wouldn't be able to afford to go to the night time gig (gee I wonder why that came up!)

cuspidorian (cuspidorian), Thursday, 6 May 2004 21:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I had a stupid dream about my Mum deciding she was gay and wanting me to get her into the SCENE last night, I just remembered. She had a strapon and was being VERY annoying. And for the sake of this thread um she THEN joined Sonic Youth and they played a great gig! Rock!

Mr Mime (Andrew Thames), Sunday, 9 May 2004 13:40 (twenty-two years ago)

chris, i'm not going now :-(. i'm saving up to go to tucson instead.

The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 9 May 2004 21:34 (twenty-two years ago)

tuscon? what the fuck?

chris andrews (fraew), Monday, 10 May 2004 00:24 (twenty-two years ago)

The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Monday, 10 May 2004 00:39 (twenty-two years ago)

chris andrews (fraew), Monday, 10 May 2004 00:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Andrew Blood Thames (Andrew Thames), Monday, 21 June 2004 13:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Tuesday, 22 June 2004 11:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Tuesday, 22 June 2004 11:22 (twenty-one years ago)

carrie sterling, Saturday, 26 June 2004 12:52 (twenty-one years ago)

so how was it?

The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 27 June 2004 01:41 (twenty-one years ago)

wow. skip tracer owned. jim was o, kinda kept in the background, but he was having fun with lee (who got 2.. or was it 3?) songs. kim went all patti smith, varying between gat and bass, and even trumpet on the last song. they played a big mish-mash of material, and one dude basically dry-humped thurston - who kept playing - then fought him to the ground, it was hilarious, going on for a good 5 minutes while the others were in a groove, the dude finally got up and stole a kiss from kim, before the security gaurds hastened his jump into the crowd.

it all started real early (8pm) so i missed kneale, but mascis was funny, he'd switch from acoustic drool to rock-god overdrive in a fumbling breath.. played a short set, sonic youth started early, played for quite a while, including 3 encores.

chris andrews (fraew), Sunday, 27 June 2004 03:31 (twenty-one years ago)

that dude = dyl4n ph4razon from f0t0. it's entirely possible that stunt was an attempt to piss off his thurston-worshipping ex-gf!

lee got "skip tracer" & "paper cup exit", + did backing vocals on about three songs.
kim pogoing & pirouetting to "drunken butterfly" in heels! lee swinging his guitar at him who then whipped him with a lead!! getting to touch lee & jim!!! PLUR!!!!
