I read in zero tolerance magazine (uk) in an article that thurston played bass in swans during the begining of the project. Im just wondering how long did that last for?

Jonathan Kane talks about TM playing in their first few gigs, which would've begun in summer 82. By early 83 he's referring to TM solely in terms of his involvement in SY so i suppose his invcolvement had entirely ended by then

"I always thought of Swans as a kind of blues band" - yeah very bluesy band by the way..."Our first gigs were with Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth playing second bass and different people doing percussion and metal-banging."

Great noisy times!! (thank's demon)
