Title: Rollcall: Dead Meadow
Post by: nkotb on April 16, 2008, 04:07:00 pm

Anyone in tonight?  
 
 I'm strongly considering...I haven't seen them in a year or so.  Still, I'm still fighting a bullshit cold, so that might keep me home.

I'm thinking about it.  Has anyone seen them live? Any good?  I am digging the new album.

I will be there.  I haven't seen them in 2-3 years, but they used to be very good and VERY LOUD.

 Powerful, passionate, high-energy set.

Is anyone else surprised that Dead Meadow couldn't sell out the Black Cat backstage??

Fantastic and very intense.  
 
 I read that she's doing a Scarnella show with Nels Cline somewhere.
 
 And there will be another US tour later (June/July)
 and later in the fall opening for XIU XIU! (what a great combo).

Oh man...Lights played the Velvet last night?
 
 That album of theirs that came out recently  on Twisted Nerve is like... the prettiest sounding thing ever.
 
 
 I would've  skipped Autechre's boring opener and caught Lights if I had known that they'd been added to the bill.    :(  
 Are their voices live as angellic as they are on disc?
 
 
 Please book them again soon!

See  this thread (http://www.930.com/cgi-bin/ubb-cgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=017129&p=2#000040).
 
 And yes, they played the dark.

Yeah.
 
 I thought the show was great.  Right up to the point the little drunk boy got on stage and said, "I can't believe I'm on stage with Black Mountain."
