oh man, they did 'gentle hour' live? love that.

campreverb, Saturday, 16 December 2017 02:08 (six years ago) link

well that's a wrap — pretty amazing, i think the only repeat song in seven nights was "tom courtenay" (they did both the electric and acoustic versions).

tylerw, Tuesday, 19 December 2017 15:08 (six years ago) link

there's 8 nights :)

I miss them.

I think I was at the Shepherds Bush gig described by masonic boom at the top of this thread, and I thought they were great. But it was quite busy and maybe I was in a better spot, Shepherds Bush Empire has been very hit and miss soundwise for me. I saw JSBX there once and the sound was terrible.

Anyway I was thinking of that gig today because they covered Neutron Bomb by Art Attacks that night and today I found out the Art Attacks guitarist died last month.

they've done "Autumn Sweater" at least twice this run

Ira is still a crazyman, georgia’s voice sounds great, and they played ‘be thankful for what u got’

And that’s my show review. Print that shit!

I have two tickets for this saturday in los angeles if anyone is interested? been under the weather lately.

officer sonny bonds, lytton pd (mayor jingleberries), Thursday, 7 June 2018 15:22 (five years ago) link

saw them here in PDX the other night. was kind of lukewarm on the setlist, but agree that Georgia sounded great.
I'm not sure they have such a great job recording/mixing her vocals on these past couple of records.

campreverb, Thursday, 7 June 2018 15:44 (five years ago) link

The last show of theirs I saw was such a snooze I decided I wouldn't go too far out of my way to catch them again, but they're playing Oxford, MS, in September, so I may see them one more time.

WilliamC, Thursday, 7 June 2018 15:53 (five years ago) link

I caught the 2nd show in SF and thought they were spellbinding - especially the first, more ambient set they played. The fairly large crowd was so so so wonderfully quiet, too

I'll be in town the night of the last show, gave it some thought ...

Josh in Chicago, Friday, 30 November 2018 18:36 (five years ago) link

Apparently the other night they covered “Jesus” with the Blind Boys of Alabama. There’s also a nice clip of Ira and Jon Langford duetting on “Girl From the North Country.”

JoeStork, Thursday, 6 December 2018 00:29 (five years ago) link

Never been, always wanted to go ... so I got a good deal on tickets, so pretty much coming to the city to hang out with my old buddy and see the Saturday show. I'm pretty jazzed and have really been enjoying There's A Riot Goin' On over the last month.

dronestreet, Thursday, 6 December 2018 00:55 (five years ago) link

Matmos last night! I couldn't go.

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 6 December 2018 16:51 (five years ago) link

Lol at his guitar also crowdsurfing.

nickn, Friday, 27 December 2019 20:10 (four years ago) link

I saw a couple people posting about Kreskin being there and thought it was a joke at first

I saw the sign at the door and figured "one of those hipster comedians will be impersonating Kreskin"

Thanks to everyone's help yesterday, I'm excited to share the seemingly impossible: an AUD safely recorded in the middle of a pandemic. Here's Yo La Tengo's Friday show from Mass MoCa https://t.co/N2XeUb0c8u
