It's still them discussing things relevant to them, it's not a mutually relational experience, you are feeding off them, they are eating off of you. Sounds mutual, maybe mutually exclusive. When is about the world of art & when is it about personal gain?


You know, I have no idea what you're talking about.

Alright chief, would you mind naming me the members of the Moore, Gordon-Moore, Ranaldo, Shelley, Bert, Sclavunos and Edson families and associates who've:
a) been given carte-blanche to release anything they want on Ecstatic Peace!
b) received gainful employ at Neutral Records, 99 Records, Homestead Records, SST, Blast First, Geffen, Universal Music or Matador Records, and
c) have had special "favours" dispensed to them by any corporate, political or media organisations?

True English gentleman that Melly bloke is.

God damn there's a strong possiblity the band split up after the southamerican tour and I ain't got no money to see them here in Santiago. If any foreign user is thinking about following the band down to this side of the world I'm willing to offer my house so you can stay, eat, sleep, take a bath, play guitar with me, listen to some music, play with my brother's PS3, watch some SY dvd's, have some fun you know.... in exchange I will only ask you to pay for my ticket to the show. I can scort you from the airport the day you arrive and then give you a ride back to the airport when you have to leave.

I don't mind posting this very same message in every related thread, please understand how desperate I am to see what could be my fave band's last tour!!!

PM for further details on this offering.

It's strange that so many of SY fans seem convinced the band's gonna split up because of K and T's separation... I'm quite sure SY will go on working together.

EDIT : currently listening to their performance buenos Aires... Hey, Kotton Krown sung by Thurston AND Kim! It's kinda rare, isn't it?

i know two people who just separated after 20 years of living together and they are still doing business together-- via email mostly.

What if...they get back together after a fun trip to South America? :D :D

Dream scenario

JohnEsmoke 11.06.2011 07:24 PM

They played Brave men run in argentina... what about that !?
If they were about to split, they would not play "new" oldies like that no ?
And its a good version of BMR !

jennthebenn 11.06.2011 07:38 PM

They played it back in August, as well.

Fuck. I have never seen them perform this song. Not in my memory at least. I could be wrong (seen them many times) but I don't think so.

Then again, I've been fucked up at most of the SY shows (and shows in general) that I've attended.

Same here. These have never stopped production since they were introduced.

Good theory? Really? That's odd especially considering where that comment originally comes from. It now turns out some troll is spreading out the truth, uh? Ha, ha.

jennthebenn 11.09.2011 03:02 PM

I don't want to speak for T_I, but I thought "good theory" was sarcastic.

Yeah. . .

For a second I thought people were bringing up the possibility of Coco replacing either her Mom or her Dad in Sonic Youth.
