incredibly excited for this.  when's the last time they hit DC?  i think it was a 930 club gig about 6 or 7 years ago and i missed that because i was sick.  anyone think this sells out?

I gotta say, my last experience seeing them reminded me why I usually don't like nostalgia acts.  They sounded just like the records only with less energy and enthusiasm.   They must have been incredible at the right place in time-- however well they play now, it can't hold a candle to that.

I'm in. Buzzcocks 2010 is still a hell of a lot better than most bands that are supposedly at their "peak". It'll be a fun time.

I'm very on the fence on this show and this thread is not helping!

This will be a gametime decision...

Here's the thing

How was it? Did anybody catch a setlist?

I'm seeing them in NYC this week, but I'd honestly be 100x more excited about a Magazine reunion in the States. Shit, even a Pete Shelley solo show. (I love his solo work, and kinda wanna hear him do "Homosapien" over and over).
Woof.

I saw the Magazine reunion DVD from a couple years ago and good gawd is it FANTASTIC. That's one on on my list I need to buy. Great stuff. Love that band. Robby from the Goo Goo Dolls once told me that "Homosapien" could have been the best Buzzcocks LP. Not sure I agree because I love the new wave-y sound to it, but it could have been interesting to hear what their version would have sounded like. "Witness the Change" is one of my favorite Pete Shelley compositions.
