Post by: mkf3 on December 10, 2007, 04:44:00 pm: What are the odds the lemonheads dec 19 show at the black cat will sell out?/Should I buy tickets in advance?

Post by: walkonby on December 10, 2007, 09:57:00 pm: i wonder if evan took some of them there magically mushrooms, and played his guitar backwards for the whole show, if he could pull off a great show?

other than that, are the lemonheads even worth seeing, post reunite? i've pondered that for a while.

i can't believe that brian is dupek. you leaky sneak.

Post by: tigersscareme on December 11, 2007, 10:28:00 am: has anyone seen them recently? do they play old old creator/hate your friends stuff or is it all 'it's a shame' onwards?

i love 'it's a shame about ray', it's probably one of my favorite records ever, but i sure wouldn't hate seeing them play 'rat velvet'.
i saw them in 1994. it was an ok show, but i remember more about the archers of loaf opening and the walking around philly in torrential rain and driving home with pruney feet.

Post by: dfmcpete on December 11, 2007, 11:07:00 am: No really old stuff last year, except "hate your friends"--this was the set list:

Black Gown
Down About It
Confetti
Tenderfoot
Pittsburgh
Poughkeepsie
Turnpike Down
Bit Part
Allison's Starting to Happen
Great Big No
Ray
Hospital
Ride With Me
Baby I'm Home
It's About Time
No Backbone
Into Your Arms
My Drug Buddy
Let's Just Laugh
Style
Hate Your Friends

Kick Out the Jams
Skulls
Being Around
Outdoor Type

Luka
If I Could Talk
Rudderless

----
which makes me want to see him again, remembering it. Plus, according to the posters he's touring with alvarez and stevenson, who really made the latest record sound great, but did not tour.

I don't think it sold out last year, and I would doubt it would sell out this year.
