I just bought a ticket for My Bloody Valentine's show at the National in Richmond. I have been wanting to take a trip up that way for some time now anyway. It's also probably the only time I will ever have the chance to see MBV live.

not the gories tonite, and not sonic youth on monday.

fuck fuck fuck fuckity fuck.

Charles Hayward / Tatsuya Yoshida

Rameses III / Goldmund / Helios

Natural Snow Buildings / Grouper / Fennesz

Charlie Parr, Agnositic Mountain Gospel Choir, Zu

Next month: Kayo Dot and Fuck Buttons.

15th of august: Oneida

October 14th: Pixies
November 6th: Wilco

Maybe HEALTH on October 28th.

All the gigs I want to go to are 18+... fuck that shit!

I'm missing Kayo Dot, Nadja and a few others now.

Nadja is only five clams though... so maybe I could just chance my luck.

Tomorrow: Agent Orange (unless I drive 3 hours for Fear)
rest of August: perhaps Green Jelly
Sept: Sunn O))), Yo La Tengo
Oct: GWAR, maybe...they've played here 3 times in less than two years...and I've almost went every time. I doubt this time too though unless I go with a big group, because Lamb of God are headlining the show.

Pukkelpop starts tommorow which means My bloody valentine, jesus lizard and loads of other bands

ive seen jesus lizard. david yow goes completely insane. really really good show. to some extent they scare me though.

You are quite lucky. I would love to see the lizard.

I bought the ticket to see my bloody valentine and jesus lizard+their are some other bands I love(Future of the left, deftones) and some stuff which I would like to see live.

So easy bet. And I will get to touch David Jow, what it takes.

i can't even imagine seeing my bloody valentine live. holy shit.

fun fact:

my bloody valentine shows have been recorder to reach 135 decibels. this is the same sound intensiting that one would experience being underneath a jet engine during takeoff. around 140 db all one can hear is silence.

The holocaust reaches that, on the end of you made me...

Me to. I littary run two laps wen I heard they were playing here but I needed to miss it throught a party but then they signed in on pukkelpop and I was execited as a little kid. I adore them so much.

Also seeing good old Deftones, still it's weird that their bassist is in a coma and the old Quicksand guy is filling in.
