This week rollcall

I had the same feeling.  I don't think I had heard a single second of their music the first time, so hearing it live was a pretty nice surprise.  It didn't take away my enjoyment TOO much, but I'm sure it had it's impact.

I enjoyed them more earlier in the year when it was fresh, expectations were less

Oh man, the only thing worse than wearing a band's shirt to their show is wearing a shirt of their PREVIOUS bands! 

lady working there said she'd sold me the sleater cat t shirt i was wearing

It looks I'm missing The Damned on Sunday night, it breaks my heart to do so but I don't think my schedule will allow it.

is this true?

They were tighter the first time but appeared to be having more  fun this time from their banter and the over all more garagy feel of the show.

Pretty rockin' Wild Flag show, though something was a bit off.  Definitely better the first go-around, but still a good time.  Nice encore too.

Pro of the night: getting a free 3/4 full PBR.  Hey, it was free!

Con of the night: getting gum on my jacket

M83 Friday,  Glenn Jones Saturday and Nisennenmondai and Fuxa on Sunday for me this week.

The Damned Black Album live...wow. I'm speechless. Superb.

[Unsanity]

The Captain was priceless! I wanted more encores!

Duane Denison is in with th' Legendary Shack Shakers now! I was shocked to see that!

[James Ford]

Does that mean all the douchey Jesus Lizard fans are going to become instant Legendary Shack Shakers fans?

P.S. He's been playing with them for over three years now. Still doesn't make their music listenable, imo.

so there are two M83 shows this friday, with one opener.  do we think set times will be something like:

6:00 doors for early show
6:30 active child
7:15 or 7:30 - M83
8:30 show ends

9:00 doors for late show
9:30 active child
10:15 or 10:30 - M83
11:30 show ends

?

[Vas Deferens]

^^ that sounds about right. U doing early or late?

[Darth Ed]

Historically, shows at the Black Cat tend to start later and end later on Fridays, like 12:00 or 12:15, because the Metro runs later. I suspect there'll be a longer gap between the openers and M83 in the later set. I'd be surprised if M83 took the stage before 10:30.

If anyone has extra ticket to M83, please PM me.

this show will end WAY later than that.. maybe even 1 am...

black cat shows on weekends go late even when there is only one show.
