Social D roll call

[bearman🐻]

Who's in? I saw them back in February in San Diego and it was one of the better shows I've seen them do, even though Mike Ness had his arm in a cast and had to surrender his guitar-playing. They played the entire Mommy's Little Monster LP in order from start to finish, then said at the end of it that they were "just getting warmed up". Seeing them in Southern California was excellent too of course...the audience was WAY into the show. Thatguy, looking forward to seeing ya there. Should hopefully be a very fun time.

Are they playing around here?? If so, when? Thanks from a clueless one.

I'll be there...I've seen them twice in the last 18 months (Allentown PA and 930 Club) and they were definitely two of the best shows I've seen, even as old as Mike is getting.  He's still got it as good or maybe better than he ever did I think.

My sister saw them in Chicago show last night and said it was one of the wildest shows she's been to. Apparently there were people getting kicked out left and right, and the band didn't even do an encore. Hopefully Baltimore will be a good show. Haven't been to Sonar in a while, but should be a fun time. And hopefully they'll play "Prison Bound" and something from the White Light White Heat White Trash LP.

well we didn't get quite as good of a set as chicago it seems.  i was a bit disapointed at the length of the set, but what they did play was very tight and very rockin

The song you missed was Mass Hysteria...there was also a new instrumental song, I think it had "Mountain" in the title or something. That was the first tune they played. My sister got kicked in the head by a crowd-surfer...where we were standing, there was really no way anyone with a brain would pull that stuff. This guy was a moron. We were off to the left side, nowhere really near where the "pit" was. I just hate that nonsense...some girl got knocked down and her glasses broke too, so she couldn't see the rest of the show. I was ready to kill the guy...on top of it, he didn't get very far because there was a guy in a wheelchair right there and he fell on top of him too.
 
 My little rant aside, I had a GREAT time. I would have loved a longer set, which I got in San Diego in February, but this was still a really tight and fun show. My sister said the performance was better than the last night of Chicago, and they switched things up a bit. I'm psyched that they played "Don't Drag Me Down". It was cool to see various 9:30 folks at the show, including Thatguy. Can't wait for Philly in a couple of weeks.

Now I hate all of you.

[thatguy]

there's a lot of love in the forum this weekend.
 
 i had a blast last night.  the only other song i would've asked for is "when she begins," but it was a great set.  i always wish they'd play a bit longer, but i guess it's better to leave the crowd wanting more than to bore them.  now i have to figure out how i'm going to get out of work for a philly show or two.  maybe norfolk...
 
 in case seth is reading this:  the only question i got asked as much as "did that hurt?" last night was "why no show at 9:30?"  this was from the crowd, the band, and the crew.  while it's always nice to get out of the club for a show, i would work a social d show anytime.  double, triple, sold out, early, late.  whatever.

i really wish I could have seen them. I saw them once in fall of 2004. IT was an awesome show. My parents went with me to that one and we had a blast. the last time i saw them was at the 2005 hfstival.
 
 i have to ask, how were lost city angels? i saw them open for tiger army last spring and they were pretty good.
 
 ps- social d at the 930 club = awesomeness. so bring them back  

[alex]

The Lost City Angels are a different band every time I see them.  I definitely don't remember them having a British singer last time.

[bearman🐻]

I didn't dig Lost City Angels at all, and I've seen them a couple of times before this. For some reason last night I thought they were monotonous and any melodies they might have had just didn't come across to me except in maybe 1 or 2 songs. I'm looking forward to seeing the Supersuckers instead.

Can't go wrong with the Supersuckers. They sure know how to put on an entertaining show.
