"Hoarfrost" is over ten years old now...underappreciated, right? Yeah, absolutely. Just sayin'.

Alan ciccone · 11.28.2011, 06:32 PM

Do you think you'll be playing any of your Sonic Youth songs when you tour for this album?
I think so. I think we're gonna try and work up eventually some of the lesser-known ones, or older ones, not like the "Hey Joni"'s or "Eric Trip"'s, but some of the ones that really didn't get played that much. We're talking about a couple things right now. "

Hmmm , wish fulfillment, saucer-like and genetic would be nice

jennthebenn · 11.28.2011, 06:50 PM

I'd like to add "Karen Koltrane" as well. I get giddy at the prospects, I tell you.

badgercorn · 11.28.2011, 07:21 PM

Genetic definitely. Paper Cup Exit. Actually there are no Lee songs I wouldn't want to hear.

E. Noisefield · 11.28.2011, 08:07 PM

Genetic, Hoarfrost, Skip-tracer for sure.

krastian · 11.28.2011, 08:46 PM

Wish Fullfillment and/or Genetic would blow my mind.

Definitely. My preferred Karen song.

EVOLghost · 11.28.2011, 09:16 PM

Well...I guess we won't be hearing any live SY for a while...

hirsute_biped · 11.28.2011, 11:14 PM

Karen trilogy (with a new karen song as the third part)

Jeremy · 11.29.2011, 12:01 AM

I'm pretty excited for the tour and his record. I really think it's going to be pretty awesome.

Karen Revisited goddamnit!!

Pelle · 11.29.2011, 02:25 AM

btw, great to hear that there will be 8 full band songs and only 2 acustic.

nicfit · 11.29.2011, 03:23 AM

Second, underappreciated is an understatement

hipster_bebop_junkie · 11.29.2011, 03:41 PM

There was mention at some other thread that he performed "Hey Joni", "Eric's Trip", "Lee #2", "Rats", and "Karenology" in addition to the new songs, at Midi Festival in France. Already looking good, and it can only get better.

Alan ciccone · 11.29.2011, 09:02 PM

I like that he said, "songs that didn't really get played much"
I've experienced all the Karen songs and Paper cup exit and hoarfrost and Eric's trip live. I wanna hear the 'Dirty' songs that got relegated and hey joni and maybe rain king again which got ignored until the Daydream nation shows.

Chris Lawrence · 11.30.2011, 03:10 AM

I think Wish Fulfillment is a given. Whether solo or with the band is my question.

Lee#2 (now called Letter to Thom?) seems likely to me as well...

I'd like to hear some Dylan/Neil covers...

jennthebenn · 11.30.2011, 06:22 AM

How 'bout a song from Television? Off "Adventure"? Heh heh.

noisereductions · 11.30.2011, 02:30 PM

I feel like yr all taking the probably breakup of the band a lot better than I am.

It won't hit me until it goes from "probable" or "maybe" to "official statement." Until then, I'm hopeful. It still could go either way.
