Play Daydream in NY

neptuneg · 03.16.2007, 11:56 AM

Dear Sonic Youth,

Please please please play daydream nation in NY in July.

--Greg

sorry, I had to.

pokkeherrie · 03.16.2007, 11:57 AM

that's like asking the Pope to become catholic.

If you beg a little more than that, they might play it in your bedroom too. Just make sure that you have enough tea and biscuits stocked in the kitchen cupboards.

it's happened once or twice.

SY won't play DDN in NYC. They hate NYC. Steve Shelley has all the east facing windows on his house blacked out so he can't see the Manhattan skyline, he hates the place so much. So they won't play DDN in NYC. OK?

drrrtyboots · 03.16.2007, 12:07 PM

You fool, Steve Shelley lives underground!

tesla69 · 03.16.2007, 01:16 PM

what are you guys talkin about, Steve lives in a giant sealed shimmery silver egg that hovers above the Hudson River.

drrrtyboots · 03.16.2007, 01:22 PM

I thought that's where Lee lives? And steve takes the secret sonic transport machine a.k.a. the magical glass elevator.

am I just being incredibly impatient or does it seem like they may not do it?

I hope that's not the case. They might just be waiting to find a particular opening at an ideal venue. Who knows? Probably no need to announce too far in advance, since it would likely sell out very quickly.

I'm guessing the Palace Theatre on 175th Street. Two shows.

that far uptown?

central park summerstage is a likely choice

how many 2000+ concert halls are there if they play indoors?

silverfreepress (sdasher) · 03.30.2007, 01:23 PM

Summer Stage is a likely choice but it's a bad one. Great location but the decibel level law is painful. The McCaren Pool is nice for outdoor. Or do a double bill with the stooges and do it at Keyspan Park in Coney ISLAND

pantophobia · 03.30.2007, 01:44 PM

the Pool was unique if not anything else, it's a nice venue, love the neighborhood

tesla69 · 03.30.2007, 02:37 PM

summerstage is a horrible venue - besides the offensive racist body searches - its a cool idea its free but the fucking fences need to be taken the hell down. Warsaw would be a fine venue they could play (maybe with a custom sound system, the Warsaw house PA is kinda ratty).

ou kids who went to the Pool, were they searching for recorders etc?

i think they were, they were letting small cameras through, i am not sure if they allowed any video cameras

neptuneg · 03.30.2007, 05:35 PM

I was at the pool show; it was great. I'd love to see Daydream played there!

Hell yes! Summerstage is my least favorite venue.

jennthebenn · 03.30.2007, 07:22 PM

been to summerstage once, '02 when sy played...i wanted to murder dj
monolake...anyway...

my main beef was, if you were standing on thurston's side, you couldn't hear
lee. check the boot of that show..."TURN UP LEE!" and while i can name
other club shows where lee's vox wasn't as prominent in the mix as i
would have liked, fuck, at least i could hear it. when patrick asked me
about that gig one of the first things i said was, "you ever heard sy
do the 'eric's trip' instrumental live? 'cause i did."

went to both pool gigs...very nice environment and sounded good, but
we'd have to get there earlier if they do a ddn gig there. heh.
