oldest fan
 
just wondering who on here has been a sy devotee the longest. anyone see them in '81? Anyone see an early branca set? i'd be more curious than impressed, so no bullshit stories, please.

i think toxic johnny has seen them in '83.

pokkeherrie 10.28.2006 10:41 AM

yes, i think he's now called florya.

Gulasch Noir 10.28.2006 10:52 AM

pokkeherrie 10.28.2006 10:58 AM

i started listening to them in 1992, but i wasn't really old enough to go to concerts at that time anyway.

I saw them first in 2002. Does this make me young?

Yes, it does! I think you are young till 44.

when did you start listening to them, dear sir?


Got to know them in 1999. Missed them 98 and 96. Since then they haven't come to Austria. I hope soon!

The first time that i listened to any of their records was at the time Daydream Nation came out but i haven't seen them live till years later and the first album of theirs that i have purchased was Goo.

Hey !!! :rolleyes: ...an extremely youthful 49 here...

I saw them in '92. First got into them with Goo, 1-2 years before.

Savage Clone 10.28.2006 11:17 AM

I got into them around 86-87. First saw them in 1989 or 1990.

Alex's Trip 10.28.2006 11:48 AM

I first saw them in 2005.

Which makes me wonder, am I the youngest one here?

Nope, I first saw them in 2006.

I so wish I had gotten into sonic youth sooner.

Alex's Trip 10.28.2006 11:52 AM

I meant age, not the youngest in terms of first SY concert.

Myself: Feb 25, 1991

well to be acurate jeff (aka bloodbeach) had nothing to do with the video even surfacing, cause it was a VHS release overseas and somebody uploaed it slsk about 2 years ago(he is certainly in the shots for sure),

jenn found him on slsk years back and got the pics and soon after chris lawerence got ahold of them (from stonehouse not jenn i believe)

pantophobia 10.28.2006 01:32 PM

oh and since i am here jenn has been a fan since 1990 after seeing the Kool Thing video and her brother had Goo (the only sibling of hers i haven't met, i don't even think he likes SY anymore)
