Live In Texas
 

So any of ya goin to the Austin/Dallas shows?

I will be at the austin show

fucking rockin out
wearing my new sonic youth t shirt that my girlfriend had made for me for my birthday

Cool man we should hook up at the show.

I have to work at 10pm so Im just gonna go hang out on the knoll or the bridge and catch what I can.

let us rock

so is this considered a tour for the destroyed room I guess?

Hell Yeah

???

well i mean that was their last release

thatd be really cool if they played a ton of songs off it

or starbucks tour i suppose :P

I wonder what type of set they will be playing. Hopefully light on Rather Ripped stuff since we heard the entire album on the last roll thru TX.

oh yeah i guess daydream reissue was the last release

anyways i just mean im wondering how we got so lucky. i know dallas is real fun and all but...

So who's goin tonight?

I'm not.

(a rather miserable attempt at a joke)

Hey folks - I'm new here and I'm wondering if anyone knows if Mark Ibold will be playing with them on these shows? Thanks!

yeah I assume Mark is gonna be playing but I dont know for sure. Not that itll matter too much for me Im just gonna sit outside on the hill and/or bridge if i even go at all. I have to work at 10pm tonight so Id be lucky if i even got to hear one song.

I dont know its still possible I might go to dallas. I am sooo pissed they arent playing MArfa on sunday instead. I would definitely go to that one.

Well to anyone who's goin have fun.

yeah i fucked up. if i had just gotten the meat puppets bulletin before 4 damn oclock literally three lousy hours before the doors opened i wouldve made it a point to go because i didnt know they were gonna start playing at eight and there wouldnt be a third band. at least thats what i gathered from the bulletin. everything i had seen previously had just said 8pm so i thought naturally that meant the doors opened at eight. i have never been to a show at stubbs before so i didnt know what to expect with all that. i went to the free melvins day show in march but thats it.

srsly the fates conspired against me. literally everything that couldve gone wrong did to keep holding me up till i just said screw it.

oh well, i dance like an idiot anyways.

hi all. yea, mark played with them. really inspired show. mostly new stuff with a couple of older ones thrown in. great encore of "bull in the heather" and then "teenage riot>long feedback jam". really great!

hope somebody recorded it! peace, jason

It wasn't mostly new stuff. Only 4 songs off of Rather Ripped were played. The setlist, not in order:

World Looks Red
Bull In The Heather
Trilogy
Teenage Riot
Cross The Breeze
Hey Joni
The Sprawl
Candle
Reena
Incinerate
Rats
Jams Run Free

BTW, there were more dicks at this show than any show that I have been to in a long time. Right before SY came on, a lot of dumbfucks obnoxiously trying to push their way to the front. And all of a sudden just stopping right in front of you or literally stopping right behind you and leaning on you. If you want a good spot, get their early shitheads. I thought Austin was cooler than that.
