Savage Clone 06.21.2006 04:50 PM

Not yet.

There a rumor that Thurston will be there written in this week's city pages. I don't know if I can make it to this...any tickets possibly at the door?

Savage Clone 06.21.2006 07:56 PM

Possibly. Maybe rush line style.
I got mine today.
Ouch.

still mourning over this

I'm working both afternoon and night shifts this weekend so I can have next weekend off. Damn, I'd be at our practice space a block away otherwise, so I'd come over and see if I could get in.

What time does it start each day?

!@#$%! 06.22.2006 02:26 PM

hm, i think i won't make it-- too kookily improvided, and i'm trying to save for my seattle trip-- oh yeah & my business taxes are due tomorrow-- OUCH.

you guys have fun & please bootleg it all

CHOUT 06.24.2006 01:57 PM

Impressions so far? Oh wait it's probably going on right now...let me know what I missed. I went and checked it out at about 6:00 yesterday when the second band I think was on, but I wasn't gonna pay $20 to get in. I was peeking through the window. The band sounded 'noisy'. Duh.

Savage Clone 06.24.2006 02:10 PM

News Flash:
20 dollars is not much to pay for TEN TOURING ACTS.
Good god. If two bucks per band is too much to pay, I have no idea what a real bargain is. Perhaps the audience should be paid to attend?

I went from Magik Markers on, good times.
MM were far better than last time, enjoyable set
Death Sentence: Panda were my favorite thing of the night; clarinet through some really cool FX, sax, flute, percussion, short choppy tunes, very tight but not tight-assed. Excellent.
Oxbow: the only act I have ever seen that I will call "freakier than Costes."
Excellent musicianship; really top-notch. The singer is a really scary looking African-American guy with lots of tattoos (one of which is a swastika right on his forearm, and a couple of opposite-pointing pentagrams on his shoulders) with a huge vocal range, slowly disrobing, drooling, and none-too-subtly masturbating through his jockey shorts. The guitar work was truly incredible.
Rusted Shut: very loud and sludgy, like a drunken Texan version of Skullflower. Didn't like their vocals at all, but musically I enjoyed them.
Yellow Swans: Excellent set of textured throbbing drones/noise. Highly listenable, but hard to see as they played on the floor.

CHOUT 06.24.2006 02:20 PM

The thing is I had to work at 7, so 20 bux wouldn't be worth it for a half hour, bucko.

That is an intriguing statement, having experienced Costes.

Savage Clone 06.24.2006 02:22 PM

Well, that explains it. Had you mentioned it before, I probably wouldn't have given you a hard time.
I have just heard too many people complaining about the high price, I guess. People act like putting on something like this doesn't cost anything, and way too many people in this town think 5 bucks is a steep cover.
Apologies.

CHOUT 06.24.2006 02:30 PM

Understood. Have fun today.

Thanks for sharing these, Savage Clone.
As an amateur photographer, your pictures are very typical of shots taken in a rock club with low light without flash.
