If that is true then it's bollocks for them to do that.

Magic Wheel Memory · 05.25.2006, 12:48 PM

I don't believe that one for a minute.

I really don't want to say the name of the band, because I doubt my friend would want the story getting back to him....this is after all the Sonic Youth site.

I'm not saying I believe it either....but my friend seemed so hurt when he was telling the story, and he told me that he was shocked they could behave that way...I don't know why he would make it up.

But Sonic Youth got their gear stolen a while back, so if it is true maybe that was karma.

The fact that this is a Sonic Youth site is all the more reason to share the specific origin of this Sonic Youth-related story. If you can actually name the band your friend is in, I'll probably believe everything you said. I don't make a habit of trusting musicians. In general, they aren't decent people, at least not in that aspect.

Sonic Youth playing with a grammy award winning band doesn't sound right to me...

acousticrock87 · 05.25.2006, 08:53 PM

Well I don't really believe or deny the story, but I can kind of understand not saying the band's name if it's true. It does hurt the credibility of the story substantially, but it makes sense. Oh well. It was a while ago, anyway, even if it did happen.

Daycare Nation · 05.25.2006, 10:37 PM

They weren't grammy winning way back when....they only won a grammy recently...they're not really super rich or anything and it's not likely that anyone here is a huge fan of them....if it WERE true, I wouldn't want Sonic Youth finding out that their little episode was being discussed...then it might get back to my friend somehow and I wouldn't want to be responsible...although that is probably not likely to happen.

lol i can understand that, i'm like that but paranoid to the max about these type of things. hearing this doesn't change my opinion of them, i mean it's an awful thing to do, but i can live with the fact that they did that (if they even did) everyone doesn't mean stuff.

If it's true, then that's all the more reason to take SY to task for it, right on their own message board. I don't believe it's true.

candymoan · 05.26.2006, 08:22 AM

what's the point..?
at best, it's hearsay, and seem highly improbable..
if sonic youth waanted mainstream success, they could've used their chances differently during the 90s.. their preference was in the other way - the chased away the mainstream attention with their attitude and out put..
they take relationships as a mean to an end? i don't think so.. they have so many stoires with influential people, some mainstream.. chloe sevigny, harmony korine, macaulay culkin, not to mention musicians too...

come on..
daycare nation hints something, and the situation gets so awkward, he can't name names, and the story can't be verified, and sonic youth end up looking like assholes..
don't think so...

whorefrost · 05.26.2006, 09:50 AM

sonic youth fans are so defensive!

candymoan · 05.26.2006, 09:52 AM

best defense is aggressive offence!

alyasa · 05.26.2006, 09:59 AM

Do you love Sonic Youth or not? Their music? Their lyrics? Art? Does anything else matter, or affect your love of these things in any way? Including their personalities?

You ask a good question. I think there's a difference between loving a band's music and supporting the band. I used to love Rage Against the Machine. Then, I read about their bass player hating all police and imploring people to blow up government buildings. At that point, my conscience would not allow me to support such a lowlife by buying anymore of his records or going to his shows. That doesn't mean I don't think their music is good.

If I thought Sonic Youth were the kind of band that would willfully destroy people's equipment, I wouldn't buy their records, either. But, I have no reason to believe that's true.

Past grammy winners include White Stripes, Wilco, Beck, Radiohead, Nirvana, Green Day, REM, Pearl Jam, Beastie Boys,etc. SY has played with some of these bands.

I have other reasons for not belieiving this story.
