Title: Black Eyes Last Night
Post by: paige on June 27, 2003, 09:16:00 am
Ok, so the first band was pretty good. WHAT THE HELL was up with the 2nd band? the guitarist was obviously tuning his guitar mid-song.. i'm open to hearing new stuff but that was just shite. played for eternity it seemed. I LOVED black eyes' set. so amazing. i love that whole avante garde style.. you can't tell whether or not they planned to sound like that or they were just beating on their instruments.
 
 Walkie -- where were you? i was on the left side of the stage right on the corner. pretty close. before they played i was hanging out on the hill right near the tree with all of the bikes on it. i hoped you'd find me....   :(  but it's ok! because i saw black eyes. so that made it all better.
   :D

jadetree, if you had an instrument, im' sure you'd beat it.... but that won't guarantee my liking of you. are you tall-ish, lanky, with dark hair and a small butt? then we'll talk..  ;)

Paige, if you hold my instrument right it will fit perfectly under your chin, then if you rub your bow across it the right way, it will make beautiful music for you!

Hi Paige, I'm vansmack.  
 
 I could just about guarantee you will not find a taller, lanky, dark haired guy with a smaller arse than mine.
 
 I've got many a board member backing on this one.

i do not see why anyone likes the black eyes. they are terrible.  i had the misfortune of seeing them open for the rapture a while back...its just noise and screaming, pure shite.   but DC scenesters support anything dischord..so, ya.

I thought the same thing after seeing them last year, but I listened to the album and "Deformative" is a pretty good song.

Post by: manimtired on June 27, 2003, 12:42:00 pm
that may be true but i just dont get all the hype...at all. they are a far cry from "amazing."
Title: Re: Black Eyes Last Night
Post by: paige on June 27, 2003, 12:44:00 pm
they are not at all easy to like, in any way. i was kind of befuddled after i first saw them last year, but i love how spastic and crazy they are. and no i dont like them just because theyre on dischord. i like them because they are weird and out-there and i have very random musical tastes. it's not super accessible music but if you listen to it well, it definitely grows on you
Title: Re: Black Eyes Last Night
Post by: manimtired on June 27, 2003, 12:48:00 pm
i think anyone who could afford instruments can sound spastic and crazy...but, to each his own.

There are a lot of people who can't afford instruments that sound spastic and crazy.

Excellent show last night.  I agree that Southkill were shite.  I got the distinct impression that they really, really liked themselves.  I could just imagine them sitting around smoking pot, listening to their own records, and loving it.  
 
 Black Eyes, on the other hand, were top-notch.  I begged Hugh to play Raoul Peck before hand, and lo and behold, there it was...so I feel special.
 
 Paige!  I must have been near you, a little back and over to the right a few feet...I got some friends to help me out by shouting "lime green New Balances, over here!" to no avail.  Will I see you Monday, maybe?
 
 By the way, I'm tallish, dark hair, lanky and small butted.  I also still get Xs on my hands at the Black Cat, so that's maybe a bit of a minus...how about a duel to the death between me and Andrew W.K.?

Paige, I've met both Walkmen and Smackie and neither one of them fit one of those descriptions. (But I'm not saying which one it is.    ;)

I am shortish, blondish, fatish and large butted. I get big black cats on my hands or smudged 930s......
 
 I say that there is no way I can compete with you walkie, beside I am scared of physical violence.

yes i can totally see that band doing that. ugh self righteous musicans! bahh
 
 nooo walkie you were right by me!! i was lugging around a bright blue jetblur arline bag, black sleeveless shirt and was with my friend who had a shirt that said "camp longhorn". now i know that that is a detailed description but i have a photographic memory and can easily remember what people were wearing.
 
 i still get X's too.... that's kind of a relief since it seems everyone i meet is 25 and older. i should be there on monday, at least i would really like to go. i hope i'll get to see you!
 
 and in a duel, you'd win. you're walkie

I give.  He can have you, I can't break the half my age plus 7 rule, regardless of the fact that I act like I'm 12 at all times (but still maintain that I am the tallest, lankiest, with dark hair and THE smallest butt on this board - eat your heart out, Paige!).
