Title: Buzzcocks roll call
Post by: Bags on December 04, 2003, 12:16:00 am
Okay, who's going to this Buzzcocks/Carlsonics show?
 
 Markie, if you're in concert apathy, why not this show?  It's a Friday, so shake your rump-a.

I want to go but think the fucking weather is going to ruin things for me. Too far to drive and I still have a rental. If the weather holds out, I might try to make it unless I'm burned out that night.

Hey I think I'll be there (not that anyone knows me). I'll be meeting up with some guys from my band there after I get off work. Gah do I hate work. I'll be having green hair and hanging in the Food Food corner trying to find them.

We will be at the Yayhoos...
 
 Yayhoos feature Dan Baird of the Georgia Satellites, and Roscoe Ambel from Steve Earle and the Dukes, and former member of the Del Lords and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, as well as alt-country producer extraordinnaire (Ryan Adams, Bottle Rockets, Blue Mountain, Marshall Crenshaw, Freedy Johnston).
 
 Do the Buzzcocks still put out good music or is this another 9:30 Club nostalgia offering?

I'll be at the show. Should be fun to see the Buzzcocks and the Carlsonics are great live.
 
 I'm suddenly off the email list again, though. Could someone send me the 2 for 1 message?

The last Buzzcocks record kills. Definitely sounds like lost Buzzcocks classics, but a fuller sound. Fuck nostalgia...I'd rather listen to great music from 25 years ago than the crap called punk being released today. The Buzzcocks are alive and breathing, and their show last Friday in Chicago was absolutely superb. The setlist (mostly in order...might be one or two missing) was:
 
 Boredom
 Fast Cars
 Love You More
 I Don't Mind
 Oh Shit
 Get On Our Own
 Jerk
 Mad Mad Judy
 Love Battery
 Sitting Round At Home
 Driving You Insane
 Breakdown
 Something's Gone Wrong Again
 Wake Up Call
 Friends
 Totally From the Heart
 Noise Annoys
 Lester Sands
 I Believe
 -----------
 Why She's a Girl From the Chainstore
 What Do I Get?
 Orgasm Addict
 Ever Fallen in Love

I've been looking forward to this show since it was booked, and if they play even half of that setlist bunnyman posted I'll be thrilled. The Buzzcocks rock just as hard now as they ever did. I've seen them every time they've come through since the old days and have never been disappointed. Although I am sorry to miss the Yayhoos.

:(    too bad, though there's a slight chance I'll still be kind of wiped from the flu (I'm better, but weak, as if I'd been in bed a month instead of shy of a week).
 
 But Jag, the two for one I have is your doing, so it'd be great if you were there!
 
 Twangirl, can we go by early to get in two for one?  I'm assuming that, due to the offer, there's no chance it'll sell out....?
 
 Everyone going, if I'm there, I'll be in my black Amoeba t-shirt....

I've had this on the calendar since it was announced, and am legs-crossingly looking forward to it.

I'm going.  Caught the Buzzcocks this summer in Richmond and they were absolutely amazing.  For four old guys that definitely show their age, they put on one hell of a show.  It was almost non-stop at some points.  By far one of the best shows I saw this year, hopefully tonight will add on to that.
Title: Re: Buzzcocks roll call
Post by: mankie on December 05, 2003, 12:57:00 pm
Is it sold out?
 
 I'm tempted...another last minute thing.
Title: Re: Buzzcocks roll call
Post by: markie on December 05, 2003, 01:50:00 pm
Its not sold out, infact with an email they may or may not have sent you there is a two for one ticket offer. What could be better than bringing Rory to his first punk show?

well more like two old guys and two young guys... and in fact the current line-up is the longest lasting in the band's history.  even longer lasting than the singles going steady era lineup.

I'm listening to "Another Music in a Different Kitchen" right now. I have to admit I think John Maher is the best punk rock drummer of all time, but Philip Barker isn't too shabby either. He did a phenomenal job in Nov. of 2000 when they played about 2/3 of their songbook from the 1970's...the show was 1 hour and 45 minutes, and by the end they were on fire. Not sure we'll get such a repeat, but you never know. They dig playing the 9:30 Club from what I understand.

From Eddie about tonight:
 
 Tickets will be available and you can buy them as early as you like for admission at 10:00. We will probably be letting folks in to the backbar as well for the late show.
