I've never heard of this series... explain.

As for the Beck ODELAY reissue... I like it OK, but I only listened to it like twice. I already had 99% of those b-sides/remixes from the original singles when they first came out. So there was little unearthed revelations. Don't get me wrong, it's nice to have em all together, and had I never heard stuff like "SA-5" or the Aphex Twin of "Devil's Haircuit" I'd think that disc 2 was an amazing lost record.

holy shiz! They cover PEG "Peg!" Wow. I love me some Steely D. That's awesome!

I am so happy, i have them ALL now, YES! them ALL! It tooke me a really long time, and a lot of searching, and a lot of cash, but i did it!

He's putting out another one in september! Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fungus. It was recorded in 2001 though, so hopefully it will be a lot like A Manual Dexterity.

the Omar & Jeremy one isn't his best, or anywhere near his best, Please Heat This Eventually is excellent though!

[Sonic Youth 37]

I was going to mention the Fungus one. It says the tracks were originally intended for the Volta, so it should be great. Wonder if they'll sell them at the Volta shows, I might just pick them up there, if they do.

they might do by then!

they had no CD's with them in the merch section when i saw them last week.

[Sonic Youth 37]

I'll just place them both on order then.

Did they play any new songs?

[screamingskull]

you know what, i couldn't really tell, ha ha ha ha, sad but true.
I could probably find out the set list if i went on the comatorium, but i just can't bring myself to do that, i swore i'd never do that again.

They played a lot of stuff from Bedlam, and a few songs from Deloused, i think, all the songs kinda merged into one really really long awesome song.

Omar played some absolutely beautiful guitar pieces in between songs that i really really hope are from the next album. All in all, it was one of the best gigs of my life, but the tall guys in front of me blocked my view a few times, next time i am going to make the effort to get there early and stand up front against the barrier.

[noisereductions]

Lil Wayne is pretty incredible.


By the way 2008 aside, a standby summer album for me is MASTERED BY GUY AT EXCHANGE by Max Tundra.

[Sonic Youth 37]

I can't bring myself to go look there either.
They've played a few new "pieces" in recent shows, so I'm interested to see. I've already instructed the people going with me to be there 2 hours before doors because I refuse to be anywhere but the very front.

Yeah, great plan!, i didn't have the choice of when i arrived . so we got there at like 7-30, they came on at 8-00 and played straight until 10-30, no break, no support. Pretty damn impressive.

You are going to have such an incredible time, i was totally in awe of them, it sounds sad, but it was like being in the presence of gods. Oh, and Omar and Cedric look, in person, EXACTLY like they do on tv/in photos.

[Sonic Youth 37]

Yeah, I'm pretty excited. At first it was just me and my friend (he actually introduced me to the Volta), but now it's expanding to 4 of us going. I love those no support shows and over 2 hours should be amazing, although I have a feeling one of my friends won't be able to stand it (he's never been to loud shows before). I'm trying to decide where to stand, dead center, in front of Omar or between Cedric and Omar.

i'd go for dead center, Omar and Cedric were in the middle dancing and moving around the middle of the stage, so i'd go for center. You can't really go wrong with center.

[Sonic Youth 37]

That's what I was leaning toward. Plus Thomas is in center.

[atsonicpark]

i think that's actually the best malkmus album yet.

shake me off the knife because i want to go home.

i listened to that album on the way to see juno at the dollar theatre. i felt so indie.

[noisereductions]

Damn. Yeah, you're right, Stu. That is a good album. (I like the self-titled best...but this one 2nd best).

Also the new Mountain Goats was good.
