stadtgorilla 12.16.2006 03:20 AM

we're coming! from munich. last time i saw them was 1998...this is going to be a blast! when i look at the paris setlist, i can hardly conceal my excitement...

Bastian 12.16.2006 10:08 AM

I've heard that 1000 people fit into Postbahnhof.
Frank, are you living here, in Berlin?

Bastian 12.16.2006 08:50 PM

I've just returned after a great show and two bottles of wine..

Show in Berlin was pretty cool.. Berliners really love SY! After they did two encores, stage technicians started to put away mics and effect pedals, etc.. but the audience wanted a 3rd encore and screamed for 15mins.. then the lights went out again and stage hands set everything up again, for another song.. SY finishing the set and 3rd encroe with Kool Thing..

(BTW, The same happened in Berlin in 2002, when I saw SY for the first time.. :) back then, they played an amazing version of Brother James)

Earlier one, Kim asked if anyone in the audience went to ATP, and then dedicated "Neutral" to "all the boys who went to ATP"..

Met a lot of people from the german SY board (www.dirtysy.de), and had a real cool time..

P.S.: J Mascis was pretty cool too! But he started really early.. tickets said 20:00, but he came on stage 19:35.. so a lot of people missed the first 3-4 songs. He was playing solo, and it was nice to see him performing on his own.. I've already seen Dinosaur 4 times (2 times last WE, hehe), so this was a whole new experience.. i really loved the solo version of Alone, which he played using a looper.

I was there too...what a setlist, awesome.

does anybody recorded the show? If so please contact me:
punkshape@googlemail.de

btw...does anybody know who filmed the whole show? are these guys from sonic youth or was it a tv station?

Bastian 12.17.2006 07:46 AM

Some songs they played:

Teenage Riot as opener
Schizophrenia
Rats
100%
Shaking Hell + another one from Confusion
Kool Thing

I don't have Rather Ripped, so I don't know the titles of the new songs..

pulsar 12.17.2006 08:00 AM

I was there as well, with the guys from the German forum. I think one of them got in touch with the soundtech shortly after the gig and he said there was a minidisc recorder plugged to the soundboard.
To add some songs to Bastian's list:

Reena
Incinerate
Do You Believe in Rapture?
What a Waste
Turquoise Boy
The Neutral
Pink Steam
Lights Out

I ended up taking over a thousand pictures. Will have to sort them this afternoon ;)

Bastian 12.17.2006 08:18 AM

A MD rec by an audience member? Or by the TV team? I mean, it's obvious that they would do a board recording when they go thru the trouble of doing a multicam pro shot of the show.

pulsar 12.17.2006 08:25 AM

You've got to ask Torsten, if he's aware of any details. As someone was asking before about the video thing, I'm quite confident - as J Mascis was filming w one cam - that it wasn't for any TV station..

Bastian 12.17.2006 08:30 AM

BTW, Thurston wearing an Immortal longsleeve at the last encore was hilarious! hehe

king_buzzo 12.17.2006 12:36 PM

see, i hate dutch people, they were dicks to sonic and the setlist sucked.

you guys were lucky

Fiona 12.17.2006 03:19 PM

i was there.
and i have a setlist, yeah!

Fiona 12.17.2006 03:25 PM

does anyone have some photos from the show? and does someone know for what the show was filmed? and where this could be released? tv?
