So I guess you're not a fan then?
 
 You could be right, though I wouldn't know for sure.  The last Sonic Youth record I bought was Goo, which might have come out before you were born!
 
 I did see them once though, in maybe 91 or 92, with the Boredoms.  It was an outdoor show in Richmond and as they were starting a seriously intense thunderstorm was rolling in...sky turning black and wind and trees blowing.  A truly surreal concert moment.  They were great though and somehow the show went on as the storm just blew past without ever hitting really, just a tad of rain. [/b]

I am a fan.  Do you really consider me a hipster?

Goo is the last Sonic Youth album I bought as well.
 
 I actually worked a Sonic Youth/Nirvana concert in 91 or 92 about a week before Nevermind came out. Great show by both bands....

You guys should both really give Sonic Nurse and Murray Street a listen, if you like the old school Sonic Youth stuff.  Both of those newer records are really strong.

Sure you want to risk it on a band that's been playing around for almost 20 years?  I'd say try and get to this one, if you can.

yeah, i don't know. i could manage the cost somehow, but i can't find anybody with an afternoon ap/ib exam that could get them for me tomorow morning... i suppose i'll try my luck after school.

 FRI JUNE 2- Capital City meets Charm City w/ THE BONAPARTES, TWO IF BY SEA, THE HEAVYCOATS $10 mainstage 9:30 (on sale 4/28)

So the Bonapartes have apparently broken up, according to myspace and their website.  And they're off the cat's schedule. . .  Its too bad, I rather liked them.
