Gomez w/ the Bad Plus

[freakoretardo]

Do you think this bitch will sell out?
 
 If so, how soon?
 
 I've never seen either band, and I have a feeling this show will be quite the good time.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

My guess is that the show will not sell out, and that it won't be any good.
 
 For only 40% of the price, you can see Devotchka on the previous night. That show won't sell out either, but it will be very good.

[freakoretardo]

Why do you say it won't be any good? Do you just not like their music?
 
 I'm not even all that familiar with their music, but have heard they put on an awesome show.

That fucking bitch whore won't sell out.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Exactly, I don't like their music. They could waggle their weiners for 90 minutes for all I know, that would be a good show.

i was at the same show and totally agree, although i  think we are in the minority on gomez...
 
 it will sellout both bands have been adopted by jam band fans who go out to see anyone... the bad plus do very uninteresting jazz versions of alt-rock songs.

[Julian, Alleged Computer F**kface]

They're playing Richmond for free.

[freakoretardo]

Well then, this went over well.
 
 "Jam band fans who will go see anyone"?? Give me an F'ing break.

[kosmo vinyl]

excuse me for pointing out the obvious that jam band shows do very well at the club... nothing against the fans or the bands

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

It's true. When you're stoned, otherwise shitty music sounds good. At least that's what I've been told.

I've never even heard more than two songs by Gomez, and I don't listen to jambands.
 
 It just seems funny how quick people are to pigeonhole other people, bands, music, etc.
 
 Especially when the band in question isn't a jamband:
 
 "Well, they arent a jamband, BUT people who like jambands sometimes go to their shows, so loo-kout."
 
 labels are way lame.

ok how about this... i saw gomez i thought they sucked and will continue to avoid them like the plaque.  i heard a bad plus track on a cmj sampler disc and thought it was god awful and will avoid them like the plague.

Now THAT's what I'm talking about. A straight forward opinion based on a personal account!

Seen Gomez 3 times at the club.  For the tour "In Our Gun" they were brilliant.  Pulled out the A game.  The other two times (once when that "Get Arrested" Song came out and once for their latest) were pretty middling.  Still thinking of trying again as they have shown to be able to kick it.
