Are we still allowed to make fun of Thurston Moore?
 

I wonder....

ALWAYS



but you should just challenge him to a duel and settle things once and for all

Yawn

If you want to turn this barely-hanging-on board into Indie TMZ, why not start some threads about Neil Young and his recent date with Daryl Hannah?

Personal lives.

Music first.

that's the thing-- rob has a personal beef with thurston which has nothing to do with the music.

he will not rest until he gets satisfaction.

if i were thurston i'd choose sabers on account of my long arms.



place your bets!

Still classier to refrain from publicly airing grievances.

(Though I guess slapping a guy with your glove is a pretty sweet way to pick a fight)

Is that how Lee left?

his solo shit is boring and weak. totally uninteresting

I wish we could talk more SY music. You know how everyone pretends that John and George and Paul had great solo records? They didn't.

However Ringo kicked some ass singing about under age babes and all

Paul's were ok and ringo was smart enough to join side projects with talent

"OK" yep. except the one where he is about to rape that male sheep on the cover.

So Lee posts here like every couple years and Jim PM'd me once in regards to an obscure post I made here so will Thurston just step up and let us know or call us out or whatever yo?

Despite some boring solo material (still looking forward to checking the new one out), I've developed a newfound respect for Thurston as an individual. Maybe a bit of that respect is somewhat abstract, as a lot of it lies with him reminding me that people are people and people change and do things sometimes others will consider crazy or refuse to try and understand from a genuine human perspective influenced by logic more so than emotion. But then there is the fact that he's remained at least somewhat obscure. With Sonic Youth he seemed more accessible in the way of interviews/etc being more common. I like low-key Thurston. I like when one demonstrates an ability to avoid negativity and too much in the way of gossip. It can be hard. We are a highly emotional species after all. Sometimes it's easy to love or hate and spit acid as a result. Seldom is it easy to make an actual attempt to empathize. Thurston's cool. Definitely cooler than that uber cheapskate ex wife of his, even if her more recent recorded material is more interesting. But then again...who really cares? Why really care? As far as any of us should be concerned they are just people who make music. I doubt any of them are showing up to any of our family gatherings and I seriously hope they are working on for more interesting things than worrying over the opinion of fans on a seemingly dying internet forum.

This is bad a$$... with my history of psychedelics I always assume that its not them, its me, so when I first saw that naturally my first reaction was, "Wait, did that shit just climb out of the fucking screen??"

nah thurston's solo is boring as shit. I got tickets to riotfest. my firlfriend suggested we go Sunday to see thurston. I said fuck that....good thing we didn't get sunday tickets...since he didn't play. How the fuck was there a problem with is visa?

BUT, you missed Patti who put on an amazing show. Naked Raygun wasn't so bad, either.

For me the real highlight was seeing Mudhoney at the after party. That band is always a blast.
