If you were one of the people hanging out front with me, leave a post. You all were really cool and it was nice to be around people that appreciate this band as much as I do. The past two days were great. My first two shows, Lollapalooza yesterday and then this. Met Thurston yesterday as he was walking to film Built To Spill's set, then got to meet the rest of the band today after soundcheck. Then, managed to get first row against the stage in front of Thurston, and got his pick and setlist. I will post it when I get a pic scanned. I'm not bragging, but just want to share my excitement with those that can appreciate it. I don't have many friends that dig SY. Enjoy the rest of the tour, for those of you lucky enough to go!

you really didn't need to make two threads.

Yeah, definitely an awesome show. We had been there since 1:00, so we got first dibs on seats. Front and center leaning on the stage, baby.

that's great.
thanks for review!
can't wait for boot, if somebody have taped it.
yeah, send that pic.

I have pictures and videos too, if anyone is interested.

Thurston bumped into my hand with his socked foot. :)

what do you mean... videos?
like from whole set?
of course we're interested!

Goddamn great show! Schizo was so fucking awesome to begin. I was so pissed becuz I was about to get my picture taken after the show between Kim and Thurston when my fucking camera battery died! Fuck! Someone else ended up taking my pic with Thurston and another with Lee............But still the first picture would have been too good. The stage diving was hilarious and Thurston calling Nike "politically bogus" and him wearing socks was just fucking funny. It was kool hanging out with The first ten people for around 8 or so hours and I'll see you folks around. Man, Steve was in a rush to get somewhere after the gig. He just looked at me, said Hi and boogied away from their bus down some other street. Lee is so friendly. I kept hearing on this forum that he seemed to be in a rush. Steve fits into that category better. Thurston:tall as ever and hip as ever. Kim saying softly, "It's so quiet right now" when I was getting my vinyl signed as people stared in awe at her was funny. Thurston stole my permanent marker. Enjoy. Yeah I snapped about 80 pics, so ill be posting. Great show and goddamn I hugged Kim's leg when she was thrusting her body in my face during "What a Waste". Dreamy.....................Sonik love to you all that were there and those that couldnt make it.

Sonic always, Joe

I have two videos from the show. The first is a clip of Kim during "Kool Thing", standing right over me. The second is "Do You Believe In Rapture?".

Sorry there isn't much-- my camera unfortunately has the memory of a goldfish.

I also have a few pictures, if anyone wants to see.


Before the show, Lee came out and took a picture of my shirt with his phone, which is definitely cool.

Yeah I remeber that. That was a relly kool shirt. You make it with stencil? Where are you going to post yr pics? I'll get mine up soon. I'm the boy with the pink floral jacket yesterday.

Excellent work by the youth last night...i felt like i could watch them forever----Loved it when Kim called the crowd old school

Haha, yeah! I definitely remember you.

Yes, I stenciled the shirt. I'm reallllly hoping that Lee showed Thurston those pictures. The crowd that gathered when he was taking them was a little overwhelming, though.

I'll probably put my pictures in a Photobucket account, as well as the videos. I don't have too many, maybe ten?. The lighting was terrible for my camera and I really didn't want to blind Kim with flash, so I said 'screw it, I'm done'.

The second guy that jumped the stage kicked my boyfriend in the head when he jumped off. I'm pretty happy the people behind me didn't catch him. He went SMACK! on the floor. It was so hilarious to see the security/stage dude go ballistic on Lee when Lee said "Hey, take it easy!". I thought he was going to rip his arm off.

I got picked up about five minutes before Kim came outside afterwards. DAMMIT! MY boyfriend got my DDN and Rather Ripped CD booklets signed by everyone except Steve, though.

P.S.- I got a really good view up Kim's minidress.

amazing amazing show...my boyfriend finally got to see "kool thing" live
after 21 SY shows.

only blights were the douchebag during "100%" (security had every right
to be rough with him, and i'm glad lee apologized; the history of live
shows is rife with instances of asshole security brutalizing excited
concertgoers who present no harm, but this was definitely not an
example of that); and that guy who screamed "PAVEMENT! PAVEMENT
ROCKS! NEXT TIME YOU COME BRING PAVEMENT!" when thurston
intro'd mark. if said guy happens to be a poster on this here forum,
hey, love your enthusiasm. not loving it so much RIGHT IN MY FUCKING
EARS THOUGH.

i would like to see a few pics of thurston shoeless, haha. we were on
lee's side, unusual for us, and patrick didn't get a great shot of thurston
sans nikes.

Very nice. I got to pet her leg during What A Waste! Stimulating I must say. Yea Steve was in a big hurry. He came out and since I was first in line for autographs, he said Hi to me and then boogied. Oh well. Thurston, Kim and Lee made my heart stop. Sonic Love! Yea, Kim was a real sex-demon last night. She's around 50 (don't know exact age) and I'm still attracted to her. Sorry Thurston,but Kim's a babe. Not in a gross pornographical way am I attracted to Kim of course. She's just.........wonderful. But yea it was a lot of fun and send me a link to your photos when theyre up. Ill do the same with my 80 photos or so and vids. Cheers.

Sonic always,joe

Damn, that's kind of hard to believe. I think 100% is the only other song I've seen more times live.

Cool
 

Wow! Stellar set list! I hope they play it verbatim at the Kool Haus gig in Toronto tommorow.

...and I was right next to you, that was an amazing show too.

I liked the octopus on your shirt, CROATOAN.

Amazing show. One of the security guards bumped into me when they were taking one of the stage divers out. It took like four of them and they were holding him by his arms and legs.
Here are my pictures:




Shitty quality, I know. But they're pictures!

What did you guys think of The Go! Team?

Yeah the stage diving was funny. Thurston shoeless was even funnier. I thought Go! Team was good but of course there's always that want for sonic youth to come on. They put on a good opening act though.

And the shirt is?
