TOM MOTHERFUCKING VIOLENCE!

I would fucking faint if they played a set like that (Tom Violence, Catholic Block, Rats, Pink Steam, Eric's Trip, Jams Run Free, Kool Thing) in Toronto on August 8th!

So any other details?

You'll probably get a really good show since it's not exactly on the Rather Ripped tour anymore and is their only canadian date. So don't worry ;)

Other details...

There was much crowd surfing and diving done by a guy toward the front, which was fun to watch...They seemed to love the audience. Kool Thing was a highlight--I was hoping that they would play this!

I got the last copy of the book "Road Movies" by Lee Ranaldo, with a bonus CD, and the book is signed by Leah Singer, the photographer...

Thurston made a reference to the Edie Brickell show, which was still going on after they stopped playing...I heard some of it from the street as I was walking to my car....it made me remember the 1980's.

They invited us all to Massachusetts.

...It was the best SY show that I've seen, out of the 7 or 8 that I've been to....

Awesome...

Sounds amazing, I'm hoping this month and a half goes by fast... and I hope I know when Toronto tickets are going on sale soon!

yeah it was definatly a great show, i wish they would have played expressway or something from nurse or murray street though. it was really funny when some guy was screaming at Lee for a while to play Mote...he was like "YOU BETTER PLAY MOTE IM NOT EVEN FUCKING KIDDING!" lol

I think Incinerate was played before Turquoise Boy, not that it matters...and I could be wrong.

Man that show was fucking cool....

oh, cool!! The book is signed by Lee as well. Glad I bought that!

I didn't hear that...

I followed this news photographer who was pushing his way to the front...I haven't been that close to the front since the Rhode Island show in 2000 with Stereolab.

Sine I'm going to be visiting Toronto for 5 days around the time I'm seeing SY there, I can waste my day to arrive at the venue early to make sure I'm front row, or very close to front :D

I really am glad they played almost the whole Rather Ripped album. I haven't been this excited about Sonic Youth in years....

Oh, and by the way, another detail--

Someone made the comment that Kim is sporting leather on her chest--not true!

Kim's breasts were in view and her skin is actually rather smooth and very nice.

Yeah I bought that too.....the cd is damn good too. I'm almost done reading it. Oh and Leah is Lee's wife.

Cool!

I'm on page 30 or so...the CD is excellent. You normally don't think "ambient" when you think SY.
