Thanks whorefrost.

Looking forward to some of those Dutch shows.

March 16th - Jooklo Duo meets Thurston Moore & Dylan Nyoukis @ The Green Door Store, Brighton, UK

March 30th - Thurston Moore @ Galeria Zé dos Bois, Lisbon, Portugal

+ he will be at the U x U Festival, Sweden in July

So what are the odds of Thurston doing a noise/improv set at The Ex Festival shows?

what else would you expect?

He's gotta keep up with Brötzmann!

Anyone going to the Amsterdam show?

I don't know, that's why I asked. But what makes you so sure?

Pretty much all of his noise/improv sets are when he's playing with someone else... and it doesn't say he's playing with Peter Brotzmann, Han Bennink, Terrie Ex or Andy Moor.

Did anyone go last night?

I did.Solo noise improvisation.Very intense, I liked it

Great, thanks.

Looking forward to it then.

Sweet. I'm not working that day.

I now have a spare ticket to see Thurston Moore, Mats Gustafsson, Hanna Hartman + others. It's at Cafe OTO this coming Saturday, March 8th. Tickets are £8 but make me an offer if you want to go.... http://www.cafeoto.co.uk/swedish-energies.shtm

Here's a great vid of Thurston's improv set in Doornroosje Nijmegen during the Ex festival. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJx22-TiOnw (not mine, I wasn't there)
He did a "regular" song set at Tivoli Utrecht last night, and some poems too. I was expecting an improv set too, but it was still mighty fine. Especially the last song Ono Soul where he jumped into the audience. No vids yet.

The Ex set was sooo good. Why oh why haven't I ever seen that band live before?

Amsterdam featured a selection of poems, 2 songs (new one? + detonation) & a noise/improv piece (including some man-on-man crowd action). Pretty much the full set is here:

According to The Wire, Thurston Moore will be involved in a few improvisational performances with diverse geniuses of experimental music when a new festival for experimental, electronic, kind of radical music originated from traditional roots and/or the occult gets launched tentatively in Autumn of this year:

Riot Fest Toronto

http://riotfest.org/toronto/lineup/

this gona be interesting.

Managed to see Thurston playing with Takehisa Kosugi last night in Glasgow, noisier than expected, rather rad overall. Roughly 17% synaesthetic (remainder was monochrome monologues, naturally)

Further to my last post, the following night Thurston played a short set with Blackburn's very own Dylan Nyoukis. Thurston was playing electric guitar whilst Dylan handled tape manipulation and vocal improv etc.

In other Thurston news I bought the CD entitled '@' featuring Thurston and John Zorn, not had a chance to listen yet!

The Slits’ guitarist Viv chats to her mate Thurston – himself not a slouch in the post-punk department – about her new book Clothes Clothes Clothes. Music Music Music. Boys Boys Boys.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b043wjb0 on next saturday...

Thank ye kindly sir! The lassie that hosts Late Junction was hanging around the whole fest, apparently quite a lot of sets will be broadcast.

Barry Miles & Thurston Moore on William S Burroughs

William Burroughs was a primary figure of the Beat Generation and had a huge influence on 60's counter culture. A novelist, short story writer, essayist, painter and spoken word performer, Burroughs' has been hailed as one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. Biographer Barry Miles worked with Burroughs for 30 years and catalogued his archive, as well as being a friend until Burrough's death in 1997. As The Times puts it, "The life of this disturbing and disturbed man has never been so perfectly told". Barry Miles will talk to Thurston Moore, another life-long Burroughs admirer.

I saw Thurston on Monday with Adam Gołębiewski in Poland. Great gig, great interaction. First time I saw Thurston playing noise set, Adam did a really intriguing job on the percussion smashing a lot of things. Thurston had a a wide range of toolbars as well, playing with a big mountain crystal (?), iPhone, drum sticks, screwdrivers, you know the usual stuff. Also, I finally got the chance to shake hand with T and take a pic. You can check out the links below.
