How is $25 dollars outrageous? They're a BIG name band on a major label and are some of the most important musicians of the 20th century. I'll pay 25 bucks to see them cuz I know it's worth even more.

I paid $50 for Bob Dylan (pricey but worth every penny), $40 for Flaming Lips (pricey but worth every penny), $35 for Mission of Burma/Pixies in Amherst (pricey but sooooooo worth it). Yeah it may not be a $7 Fugazi show but they need to pay their mortgage man!!!!

it sure is outrageous, all those acts you listed are waaaaaaaaaaaay mroe popular mainstream wise than SY....and $35 for MOB AND pixies is well worth it, 2 great bands, not just 1.

lets not get crazy with a big name band label....the average american has no idea who sonic youth are, but they know who eminem, 50 cent and britney spears are...not saying that a good thing, but you cant call SY a big name band....they barely had that status at the height of thier popularity. to us, people who ignore the mainstream for the msot part altogether, sure SY is a big band, one of my all time favs, but you cant compare their ticket prices to like U2 or Madonna and say its reasonable...for the bands i go see on regular basis..$25 is outrageous, but i guess with 5 members now on tour...its acceptable

Despite the crowd and such, I loved the NH show, thought it was great. Sure can't complain about paying $25 to see SY, that is just plain absurd. Worth every nickel. Toad's sucks, but at least there wasn't that silly fence for this show. Thanks to whomever posted the setlist, nice to fill in the pieces that memory (and beer) has obscured. Shaking Hell!

It was a different fence this time. I've seen shows where the fence towers over everybody's head. This one was about waist high and vanished in the crowd.

Yeah the last 2 times I saw them it was just the four of them. Now they have a 2nd bassplayer who I swear is from the band Pavement, but my friend says otherwise.

$20-25 seems more than reasonable to see SY at a club. Theyaren't showing up in a van and carrying their own guitars. They have support people and mgmt to pay. Its not so simple they just split the money 4 ways (and give Mark beer tickets). There is an organization there. How many people do they travel with?

But is $40 +10 fee to see the Stooges fair?

And all those Nels Cline shows next month at the Jazz Standard @ $25 a set are giving me a heartpain - 3 goddamn sets in one night!!!!! How to choose?

Set List:
(Not in order, and possibly incomplete)

Candle
Reena
Incinerate
Mote
World Looks Red
What a Waste
Jams Run Free
Teenage Riot
The Neutral
Pink Steam
Or

I left a little early, so I missed a couple of Encore songs.

They started the encore with The Neutral and, I gleaned from some over excited young fans in a nearby Pizza Restaurant, that they closed the Second Encore with Teenage Riot.

I hope I didn't miss XPRESSway.

Who was there? What did people think?

GUSTON

my god mote! im so so jealous right now thats up in my top five!
great gig i bet!! i would love to see them in the us one day. better hurry up though i guess.
