After the show at the Floristree last night I looked around for Killsally and then I realized I had no clue as to what he looked like.

I thought you said you saw me at Neutral Milk Hotel?

Either way, I ended up skipping it.  I heard it was amazing, and already regret that decision.   

Pixies at Electric Factory last night was a fun 90 minutes.  Even with the 4.5 hours of driving time, I still think I made the right choice of seeing them at Electric Factory instead of Strathmore.

I caught the last few songs of Fidlar and was glad I didnt get there any earlier.

Atomic is having a hard time keeping his schtick straight.

I was at the Pixies show last night too.  I had a great time.  I wasn't disappointed at the lack of encore because they did play like you said 90 minutes.  Crowd was fun too, looked like the kids were having a blast moshing.  Fidlar was dreadful.  You didn't miss much.

I usually don't talk shit about bands, bit yeah, fidlar were pretty bad on the four songs I heard.

Fidlar sounded generic... Kind of like some bar band playing their originals instead of the covers.

Fidlar just sounds like a very generic pop punky/bro rock/quasi surfy/ garage band that I imagine are from California that sings about partying, drinking, and drugs.  I've heard them in some form or fashion about a hundred times over in the past.  Nothing remotely interesting, catchy, or memorable about their songs.  The kids up front liked them.

I didn't know the pixies inspired moshing but they did last night.

My first time seeing her tonite. Not a big fan going in but a great, great set. Liked the opener with dogs in their name too.

Yeah I dug both openers Friday. Was looking forward to All Dogs for a while and they delivered and Cayetana was a bonus. Their singer had a Mountain Goats-esque delivery thing happening.

Mr. Stephen Malkmus really mailed it in on Friday night at the Black Cat... my least favorite show I've ever seen of his.

^This is how I felt about the last 930 show and why I didn't jump on tickets to Friday's show.

That St. Vincent show was pretty fucking epic. Went mostly for Holly Herndon but very happy I stuck around.

i wonder what is next for malkmus? wait 4 years for a  new album and another tour of even smalller places? live off the wife's job? reunite pavement for new album with reunnion tour?

he's running out of options musicwise..

maybe he'll find a new career...

I wouldn't call it over... and I'll most likely go see him again when he rolls through town in a handful of years, but I think it was just an off night. In my opinion, it's strange seeing a band that just doesn't care and I really got that vibe the other night. That mixed with a sold out Black Cat, starting after 11pm (yes, i'm an old fart)... it just wasn't a great show.

It was heavy on tunes from the last two albums plus a few favorites like Jenny and The Ess Dog and Baby C'mon. The encore had a few really deep Pavement cuts from Watery Domestic and Perfect Sound Forever... then a Fleetwood Mac and Velvet Underground cover.

I'm all for a Pavement reunion.

This.

I think it's weird having went to both the NMH and Pavement reunion tours (who are similar in that they're both bands primarily from the 90's who waited a decade plus to finally give in and reunite). I left Pavement's show going "I would go see that band every year if they reformed permanently," and I left NMH going, "I really have no interest in seeing them again." On pure "how good was the set," they were probably even or maybe NHM was a bit more technically proficient, but I just wouldn't go see NMH again if I had the chance (unless it was free or something) whereas I'd go see Pavement every summer like some people do Pearl Jam.
