They are so funny live - really one of the funniest bands. Love the Q&As. And they were tight as hell. Todd Trainer is one of my favorite drummers - so fun to watch. Weston said tube amps are for pussies (he has a solid state Traynor bass head in that big metal box). Lots of new songs - the new album will rule I'm sure. They said it'll be out at the beginning of next year. Got a nice big ass door-size poster I ripped off the wall.

i saw them in edinburgh a couple of years ago and they were spot on. i have action park and terraform, action park is probably more consistent although terraform has a few more awesome songs...

the new year is like the polar opposite of shellac. I love them as well. different band for different mood.
shellac fucking rule all live. I had such a blast seeing them in Houston earlier this year. I bought a t-shirt. said hello and chatted with steve albini for a bit. great time. my favorite is at action park, but i love them all, ALL! I got the seven inches too. those rule. my favorite shellac song, the one that drives me crazy and makes my body convulse with rock fury, is DOG & PONY SHOW

Dog and Pony Show rocks. I like Big Black more though. I'm playing around with the idea of covering Steelworker.

I went to ATP when Shellac curated and so saw them three days running.
I got up midday Friday, Saturday & Sunday had breakfast and then went to see Shellac. Monday I had withdrawal symptoms. |

Shellac came to Birmingham recently to a club for 18 and older, which really pissed me off. Shellac is definetly in my top 3 bands. I honestly don't see how anyone could not like them.

Another little story. My sister went to the t&g concert and said she met Todd. He was sitting at the bar, drunk. I think all she really said was that it was a good show, the typical meeting a band member spiel. To me he seems pretty unapproachable. Like he's a junky. (Or like he might rob you, or insult you, or something) He's one of my favorite drummers as well. With his sparse, somewhat simple, off beat, drumming. |
