[azaghal1981]

Tickets went on sale yesterday; just got my saturday! In for saturday/sunday but saturday will most likely be the only night to sell out due to SY.


Anyone else?

merzbow canceled

[azaghal1981]

Ouch!



But now I don't feel as bad about not having a sunday ticket.


Have all the US dates been nixed?


Is he afraid of a little swine flu like Cornelius (I still can't believe they did that)?

[Vas Deferens]

good, less noise we have to deal with. 

merzbow canceled

[teepo]

i still don't have any arrangements as to where i'll be sleeping so if that doesn't get settled, i will gladly sell you my sunday ticket at face value. i'm one of "those" who is mainly excited for sonic youth and bardo pond and with the exclusion of merzbow, i'm not sure if it'll be worth the extra time and money to stick around an extra day... though skullflower and emeralds, even with their not so thrilling new direction, should be interesting and i do have a hunch that the purient and kevin drumm colab will be brutal.

Ouch!

I think Emeralds' new direction, while not as experimental, is pretty damn awesome.

That "The Overlook" cassette has a couple of very beautiful compositions on it.

emeralds has a new direction?  what, like new age?  those dudes ride the synth wave just right.  one of the best 611 shows for sure...and those dudes came prepared with a giant jar of the dankest shit i've ever whiffed. they walk the walk.

what happened to merzbow? visa problems?

[teepo]

from last.fm

"Merzbow dropped off. Merzbow has decided to cancel his entire trip to the US/Canada due to personal health concerns. (he is fine but has a chronic cough problem and is worried about traveling specially with the current flu scare.) Is too late for us to come up with a suitable replacement, but instead we are going to extend the alloted time for both the Prurient / Kevin Drumm collaboration and the Skullflower set.Which I think is a really good solution for everyone."

merzbow is afraid of swine flu?

i want to see skullflower really bad.

[azaghal1981]

Hah so I was right!



That is hilarious.

[teepo]

i take it back, the overlook is very very reassuring.
