"Recently someone sent us video of an unseen, impromptu SY set at The Rat in Boston to benefit magazine Forced Exposure on May 9, 1987.
The short, unannounced SY set consists of two covers - performed on gear borrowed from Dredd Foole and the Din - Crime’s Hot Wire My Heart and The Stooges' I Wanna Be Your Dog (just a few weeks before we performed the song w surprise guest Iggy Pop at London’s Town and Country). Steve Albini is the MC and J Mascis joins us on additional guitar on The Stooges cover.
Thanks to @origfunhouse for the footage."

What a one-two punch in stellar quality. I'd never seen Kim rock the bass like she does on "Hot Wire My Heart"... Fuck me. And J is like the Mick Taylor (or, well, the James Williamson) Sonic Youth never had. ;)

^ Hey, my post broke the glitch barrier. On the torrent announcements thread I can't post jack. :(:mad:

Just wanted to post the same, but then with the YT link. So here's the YT link :)

Perhaps you've reached your quota on that thread

Like you can't rep the same person, perhaps there's a new rule that you can't post a thousand times in the same thread :D
just kidding of course :p

Actually, as of now I have 10,741 posts there thank you very MUCH. :) The real new rule is the board is unpredictably bonkers and we're all gonna die. :mad:

Way to go Jef! Congrats! Sounds fantastic!

Thank you MOSHE!

will we ever get another SY live show on bandcamp friday ever again? they were really the highlights of my month for a while

Today is the final Bandcamp Friday... unless Bandcamp agrees to do more in the near future, when live music shows have to be postponed again because oh shit, it's not safe yet, cases are spiking, who knew. :(

Wow! Once it's archived, I hope I'll be able to capture it in order to dig all 27 hours... :)

thurston with the dead c for the folks in Australia

Extremely cool, but I can't help thinking... Live music's back, all of a sudden, just like that?

Sorry, but I did not care for today's CDC announcement.

i hear you...but i think comparing the situation in the states to the one in australia is like apples and oranges
