Choose for me!

Edit!!

I can see GWAR too for $21 the night before Dino Jr.

val-holla-ing · 10.03.2007, 11:54 PM

definitely yellow swans and the melvins.

If you want predictable, go for Dino Jr.
If you want entertainment, go for The Melvins.
If you want something a bit different, go for Yellow Swans.

I've voted Yellow Swans.

I'd go for Yellow Swans.

But we're all different.

Toilet & Bowels · 10.04.2007, 06:22 AM

i've seen yellow swans twice, they're boring and (thankfully) only played 20 minute sets both times.
go for the melvins, they're the best live of those three by far

I thought Yellow Swans were nothing much to watch, but I loved the power of the sound. It felt like being in a powerful hot shower.

Toilet & Bowels · 10.04.2007, 06:39 AM

both times i saw them the first 5 minutes sounded great, but after that it just turned into very run of the mill noise.

_slavo_ · 10.04.2007, 07:13 AM

Yay, I'll go and see Jesu in December in Prague !!!

(offtopic, but indeed a very excited post)

pokkeherrie · 10.04.2007, 07:18 AM

hmm, i don't know. none of them have really impressed me. yellow swans always play really short i think; when i saw them it was around 20-25 minutes too. but to be honest you wouldn't want to see them play for an hour. they aren't much of a visual spectactle, but if you like noise you may enjoy it. dinosaur jr play really loud, from what i remember even more now than that they did the first time around. but fairly predictable, yes. melvins were a pretty good live band every time i've seen them, but i'm not a fan of them, so never really enjoyed them all that much either. if you're a fan i reckon you'd enjoy them though.

anyway, melvins for $15 and yellow swans for $6 seem to be the best value for money, but i would just go to the one(s) whose music you enjoy most.

Toxa · 10.04.2007, 07:22 AM

Melvins.

and don't miss GWAR =)

HairwayToSteven · 10.04.2007, 08:58 AM

The answer is obvious.

Melvins.

Everyneurotic · 10.04.2007, 10:55 AM

if you can't see all four.

go to melvins and yellow swans, or melvins and gwar. you have to experience gwar at least once in your life.
