Thurston's set at Iron Horse, anyone?
 

Anyone went to check out Thurston's set as opener for MV/EE + Bummer Road at Iron Horse Jan. 31st?

More new songs? How Many? Vibes? Pix? Vidz?

seems that nobody from this board.

alright alright
 

since no one else will reply and this thread is still kinda hanging out down here, guess i'll bite.
set was kinda brief and he was joined by john moloney of sunburned. pretty much all were new songs, all sounding pretty similar to thurston-composed stuff from murray st/nurse/rather ripped. kinda dirgy, with pretty little plinkings in between, maybe even a noisy rockin part (!).
first half of the set was acoustic and then he switched to electric. moloney played basic, hard hitting beats a la steve on psychic hearts. not much banter between songs, and of course the song titles they threw out there were pretty much of the in-joke/improvised nonsense variety. what came as a nice surprise was two psychic hearts songs, queen bee and psychic hearts, which closed out his set.
anyway, mv+ee's set was pretty alright too, although it seemed like a lot of the people were just there for thurston. to be expected though i guess.
sorry kind of a half-assed review, and no pix. there were folks taking video though, so keep yr eyes out for that.
peace

Thanks for the review. It's pretty great that he busted out Queen Bee and Psychic Hearts.....I would have flipped!

Thanks for the review argylesox and welcome to the board. We really need a spy in all those east coast gigs.

yeah, thanks for review.
that would be great if video would surface at some stage on dime.
so new songs, huh?
