Eiafuawn – Secret Gypsy Language
How can ya not dig these guys?
Yeah, and that’s apparently not enough to persuade my husband to accompany me on a ride to and from NYC. And I’m sure as hell not going alone, so oh well…
I know I’ve already posted this elsewhere, but this must be done!!!! A DVD/CD set would be fuckin’ awesome. Please don’t disappoint me.
Well, I hope to go. I’ve only driven through NYC and truthfully, I’m a bit scared of the place. I grew up in small-town Texas, spent some time in northern Maine, NH, and western MA, and I now live in tranquil Upstate NY. The part of NYC that I saw while driving through was freakin’ terrifying in every sense of the word (we were looking for a public restroom in an ugly part of Queens–pretty stupid in retrospect). But if I can get my husband to go, I’m there (I sure ain’t going back to NYC alone!!!). Don’t worry, though. If we go, I’ll fill y’all in on everything.
Just got word back from Jackie Farry:
J is going on at 8pm sharp til 8:30
Incidentally,
Chavez are on at 10:30-11Anyone know the stage times for J and Chavez? We’re coming from Upstate and gotta work out the logistics of it all…
Same here. Hey, everyone who was videotaping the show: Could you please post it soon? I’m dyin’ here! If anyone got the Sonic Youth performance, too, I’d kill for that…
BTW, I missed most of J’s set even though I was flying down the Pike like the maniac that I am. I was there just in time to catch him sitting in the middle of the stage under soft lighting with a girl on flute playing "Thumb" and then a blistering acoustic/electric rendition of "Alone." I got to meet him after the show. I like to think I’m a pretty cool person, but goddammit, I was fucking awestruck. I probably came off like a total idiot. He was sweet, though, and he signed my "Start Choppin" CD single cover and we got a pic together. I’m framing the ticket, the CD cover, and the pic.
BTW, I’m a rabid Sonic Youth fan, too, and they rocked the roof offa that place. Played a lotta new stuff from their upcoming "Nurse" album, "Rain On Tin" from Murray Street, Mote (leading into another song from Murray Street–I think, and Drunk Butterfly. During Drunk Butterfly, Kim was jumping around like a psycho, twirling around like a tornado. During the very first song, Thurston threw his guitar up in the air in a moment of musical passion and it took a while to revive the thing. The whole experience was amazing. No other word for it.I didn’t know who the hell that fat guy was, but J was on drums and they fucking rocked. I only just now found out that was Deep Wound. I wish I knew what song that was. Maybe someone will post video/mp3s from the show last night. If they already have, then I hope to God that part is on there.
