Title: Who do you want to see at the 9:30 Club in the future?
Post by: RainBoots on April 20, 2004, 08:19:00 pm
I want to see the Polyphonic Spree here again, and I've been liking and listening to quite the bunch of Ben Kweller stuff. Where is Modest Mouse?

Anna Waronker
 Scout
 Tegan & Sara
 Big Star w/ Ken & Jon
 Jason Falkner
 Queens of the Stone Age
 Tommy Keene
 Spoon
 Urge Overkill
 The Wrens
 
 I'm sticking with bands I haven't seen @ the new 9:30, and bands that are around, together and could tour.   You know, to be realistic about it (and not get in to a whole "if this band could reunite" thread again!)
 
 Seth, maybe Big Star's gonna tour soon??!!??    :D

I'm rather desperate to see Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds at the 9:30 Club again.
 
 TV on the Radio would be great. Better than the Black Cat's Backstage surely.
 
 Garbage is always welcome in my book.
 
 Zwan would be divine.
 
 I guess Radiohead would be unrealistic, but that would be awesome.
 
 Ditto for the White Stripes. The White Stripes at the 9:30 Club would be a much better concert than last autumn's George Washington University concert.

Pixies
 Snow Patrol again.  :)
 QOTSA/FF
 TV on the Radio would be cool

 The Never

Yup on Birchmere, nope on Rams Head (they had to cancel, but Bob is still performing.)
 
 A surprise visit from Prince would be cool.

 That's why I've never made the effort to see him in concert.

I'd rather see my favorite bands at the Black Cat or Iota, or outdoors in a non-smoking venue, but I reckon both Wilco and Old 97's will be playing 9:30 club in the next few months, so I'd like to see them (at $25 or less).

You trendy uber cool hipster scenester you!
 
 I guess you're taste is up your arse though seeing how the 930 wins the best small concert venue year after year.

1) Pixies
 2) Pixies
 3) Pixies
 4) Pixies
 
 oh yeah, and
 5) Pixies
 
 I think I need to keep dreaming. They'll probably get booked by IMP at Bender Arena. I'm really praying that they don't do the Patriot Center though. That would be a MAJOR disappointment. I'd even settle for the Smith Center at that point. But the 9:30 is where they really should get booked.

I actually did see Wilco and the Old 97's play the 9:30 Club together a few years ago. I think it was maybe $15. Old 97's opened. Anybody else there?

Not me - I did see Slobberbone open for the Old 97's many years ago. One of the few unknown opening acts to really blow me away.

I had the same experience seeing the Bottle Rockets open for Matthew Sweet at the old 9:30 club. That may actually have been the first alt-country show I ever saw...by accident, as I was totally there to see M. Sweet.

I saw him last year on a beautiful night in Boston -after witnessing an afternoon red sox win I must note!
 
 I agree with you to an extent: I certainly would put him in the category of somebody I would rather have seen many years ago.  
 
 But while e aint what he used to be, he was way too into some of his jazz type stuff, it was still great to see him.  Didnt ruin/spoil what I was hoping for at all.  And the great Solomon Burke opened for him.

They played the 9.30 club in September of 1999. I'm pretty sure that was the last time. They are *well* overdue. Luckily, I think not enough people care about them in the US, so if they *do* come I'm guessing they would play the 9.30 club. They fill stadiums pretty much anywhere else.

By pretty much everywhere else you mean England? I think not too many people care about them in other European countries.

True, although they have a curiously strong following in Scandinavia and are of course 'big in Japan'. And then they also toured Cuba which is pretty cool.

flawd,
 
 I sat next to this guy from GWAR (well, the guy who plays the character at least) at an Iron Maiden concert last summer. It was muy bizarro.
 
  beefcake the mighty (http://www.gwar.net/mythos/bios/beef/index.php?gwarsid=5e5f6def83100781e8b988952790920f)
 
 Beef is an arrogant bastard with absolutly no regard for feelings of others. No one likes him and he wouldn't have it any other way. His ill temper and egotistical vanity make him the perfect rock star. He feels everyone is intitled to his opinion and if you don't like it you can fuck off. As the late great George C. Scott one said, "Get that fat asshole out of my dressing room, he's puking on my wife."
 
 Strangely - he was nothing like his character. He was way too nice. He invited us to come back stage at their next local show - only I'm too scared.    :D

Someday you might get your wish...kind of:
 
 In a recent interview, Greg Dulli had this to say about the Gutter Twins tour:
 
 The next time "we tour, we will perform songs from the Gutter Twins, the Twilight Singers, Mark's solo stuff, the Screaming Trees, the Afghan Whigs -- and any other covers that we've done along the way," says Dulli. "We'll be able to pick from a couple hundred songs."
