(With many thanks to Dave P for giving me the heads up on this).

OK, everyone, please find below a link to a recording of the first of the two pre-tour warm up dates that My Bloody Valentine played at London's Institute of Contemporary Arts. The show I have is the first one they played, on 13 June 2008 (incidentally, my birthday...):

This is all one mp3 file, and it very much sounds like an audience recording. As a result, the vocals are somewhat muffled, but the rest of the sound is surprisingly rather good (best heard on headphones if you have a laptop). The setlist is pretty unchanged from the set I saw them perform at the Roundhouse last month.

Enjoy!

atari's already got on of the heavy hitters covered. and the Peel sesh is outstanding.

Edit: I found a good one from 1988 as well, all I have it labeled as is "1988-Hanau, West Germany". I've surmised that it's the same tour as the one I talked about above. All stuff from before YMMR. However, the quality on this one is much better. (You can actually hear everything really quite well) The only drawback is that it's one track clocking in at over 46 minutes. I'd be happy to upload it if there's interest.



yes please!

Thanks! This will be priority listening material later this evening.

I found some more info on it.

Yes, they recording does have "Sylvie's Head" and "Paint A Rainbow" twice.

Sonic Youth 37 - a plus one from me for a copy of this boot as well. I've neard heard the "Strawberry Wine/Ecstasy" stuff done live.

Sonic Youth 37 07.16.2008 09:00 AM

If you guys wanted another I could upload this today. The quality is more like later MBV boots where you can hear the drums and static guitar all the time, but vocals come and go. Nowhere the quality of the other one.

Sonic Youth 37 - if you could upload it, that would be great. No rush for you to upload it on my part, any time would be good. Cheers for this, matey :)

Sonic Youth 37 07.16.2008 09:41 AM

Okay, it'll be up something this evening most likely.

Cantankerous 07.16.2008 09:43 AM

also if anyone has any ymmr-isn't anything era boots, like from 89 or so, that'd be brilliant, thanks

Have you had the chance to listen to the MBV boot I put up?

I have 3 shows from 89 and one YMMR-Isn't Anything that I don't have a date for. I'll pick the best from those and upload it as well.

Edit: I found a date that matches the setlist for the one I was unsure about. I might as well make a list of all the shows I have.

MellySingsDoom 07.16.2008 09:53 AM

Cantanky - Ah, that's good. Funny to listen to the noise bit in "YMMR" on the boot last night, and having that last a mere 10 mins, compared to the 30 mins I experience at the Roundhouse. A friend of mine saw them in Manchester a few days after me, and he said that the YMMR noise bit there went to 40mins.

EDIT - Sonic Youth 47 - that's well generous of you. Thankx again.

Cantankerous 07.16.2008 09:57 AM

i had to hold my ears during the noise bit
which was a pain in the ass because i had a cigarette and i had to stand there with my hands at my ears and a fag dangling out of my mouth, all the smoke getting in my eyes and ashing all over myself

i think the second mbv show was the last show there that they allowed smoking
stroke of luck on that one

MellySingsDoom 07.16.2008 10:02 AM

No smoking for Melly at the Roundhouse. Being a "real man" (he say lying), I didn't bother with such niceties as covering my ears/using earplugs etc - I just let the din deafen me senseless. Like a relaxing bubblebath but with noise and distortion.
