Shellac shows!
 
Okay, I'm going to one in wednesday, so, I was gonna ask, How long do their shows last approx? Asking cause I need to know when to get back and stuff...

SonicSam 05.19.2007 10:59 AM

Soooo gutted I missed them, I had no money

Pookie 05.19.2007 11:03 AM

The shows last about 2 hours, but that includes a break for tea and cake.

Pookie 05.19.2007 11:03 AM

Have you got 1000 Hurts yet?

king_buzzo 05.19.2007 11:22 AM

Yeah, I do, its fucking amazing. Break for tea and cake? Are you serious?

sonicl 05.19.2007 11:26 AM

Saw them in London on Thursday where they played for 90 minutes. No encore.

Androol 05.20.2007 05:11 AM

yeah id say the one here was slightly longer than usual. im pretty sure they just had one opening band. yeah id say between 90 mins is a safe bet but if they played two hours here i dont remember it. maybe they did though.

king_buzzo 05.23.2007 09:59 AM

Thanks, BUMP, are they selling any merchandise such as cd's and shirts?

Everyneurotic 05.23.2007 10:02 AM

don't bring coffee or mention starbucks, though. if you do, their fans will tie you up and throw you onstage for albini to piss in your mouth.

it's tea or nothing with that nazi.

king_buzzo 05.23.2007 10:10 AM

we dont have starbucks here, lame.
Now answer my previous question, any merch being sold? price?

(i've never seen shellac live so i wouldn't know)

king_buzzo 05.23.2007 10:22 AM

No, I've just never seen one in the cities i've been to.

Other people, get your ass in this thread, i need to know, and i need to know, NOW.

when i saw them live they played for 2 hours as well.

best show ever.

they were so tight.

there were two q and a sessions during it.

and one scolding of a person video taping the show.

and this was 5 or 6 years ago so i asked the merch lady "so, i can buy the cd for $16.. or the vinyl for $14... but doesn't the vinyl come with the cd?" and she went "SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH... yes..." and i was like "cool, gimme the vinyl."

the shirts were like $30 though :|

atsonicpark 05.23.2007 10:21 PM

oh, and no encore, of course.

and they played a really good mix of everything when i saw them.

they seem to always play didn't we deserve... or crow (my favorite shellac song) last.

and from the show i saw and every show i've downloaded, someone always asks them about their amps..

king_buzzo 05.24.2007 06:08 AM

So, the show was ORGASMIC, i mean like, *Orgasms. End was amazing, they took out a spare drum and gave it to the audience to bang, then the shellac boys were all banging the drums. Then Bob climbed up a speaker and fell off at the end.

Pookie 05.24.2007 06:31 AM

Glad you enjoyed it buzzo. They certainly are a fantastic live band.
