[Julian, Bespoke SEXPERT]

Maybe the knobs should stop at 9.

But these go to 11.

Well played. I like to think you registered this account just in hopes of this one day happening.

Elbow is a really really really good band.  That is all.

Hutch was the one who argued with me about Jesus and Mary Chain not being too loud and he was wearing ear plugs.  I agree with James that bands shouldn't play so loud that you need ear plugs. I  have never used any.  Only a couple of bands have played so loud that I wish I had them.  Jesus and Mary Chains recent show and Soundgarden show back in the early 90's come to mind off hand. 

All shows are loud enough that you should be wearing earplugs.  Even if you think you don't need them.

[James Ford]

Maybe that should be amended to "all rock shows at the 9:30 Club".

I go to shows at Jammin Java, Iota, Gypsy Sally's...never a need for earplugs. Maybe they think they don't need to make it as loud because they are smaller venues?

I would guess that they may be okay.  Only way to tell is to check with a sound level meter and/or wear a noise dosimeter at shows. 

Anything 100dB and over and you should really be wearing earplugs (you can be exposed to 100dB for 2 hours before it starts to damage your hearing)

Now that sounds like a great way to pick up chicks 

[K8teebug]

They're tiny

Then why even go? I can tell you didn't need any at the Magnetic Fields.

indeed

[Vas Deferens]

haven't listened to the new album, but oh boy, they are a little too middle-of-the-road for me now.

John Grant was awesome, though

I tried to tell you this roughly five years ago.

did you hear john grant @ u st. last summer w/full band?
that was awesome

elbow can lean a bit MOR at times, but sometimes I feel like a glass of wine instead of an i.p.a.

[Vas Deferens]

^ nope, was overseas June of last year 

would have been nice to hear his more electronic songs

[kosmo vinyl]

Morcheeba was great tonight even without their DJ, who couldn't get his visa stamped in order to enter the country.  In the words of the guitarist "He's just a DJ who likes to smoke dope and break the law".  Haven't seen Morcheeba in awhile, but Skye is in great voice and always impressed with guitar players skills.

Have to say that if I were an warm act, I much rather being playing on a bill at the Lincoln than the club.  Something about those seats that keeps the chatter down from the audience during warm act sets, where as a the club the chatter would have been more obvious.  Was impressed with Conner Youngblood's set, even if it was a little rough around the edges.
