Re: [MMouse]: off topic: Apples in Stereo/Essex Green
When I saw the apples in stereo open for sebadoh in 97, they were awesome. When I saw them last summer, they were completely out-played by Beulah, who are definitely one of the best live bands I've seen. Don't know what caused the change, but it seemed like they were even bored with themselves. .mer. go flyers.
Re: [MMouse]: off topic: Apples in Stereo/Essex Green
i will agree. i saw the apples in stereo live and was bored to the core. beulah opened though and they rocked the town like a bucket of muscle fuel. it was a shame, i also was expecting something a bit better. oh well. such is life. russ Jeff Peers wrote: > > Last night i witnessed something that was most unimpressive... > The Apples in Stereo live. > Am I alone?

[MMouse]: off topic: Apples in Stereo/Essex Green
Last night i witnessed something that was most unimpressive... The Apples in Stereo live. Am I alone? Was it just me who thought that they should chill out with the distortion and learn to croon? Horrible sound at the Horseshoe in Toronto surly didn't disuade my intrest. Did it? It was loud, slow, and boring (accept for robert schnieder, who reminded me of doug marstch in that "please be my father" sort of way). The Essex Green opened to the same result. It just sounded sloppy and boring. Not anything I would expect from the same Elephant 6 camp of live shows as The Olivia Tremor Control, Beulah, and Neutral Milk's boisterous mayhem. I am walking in a daze trying to remember one good moment. But i can't. Damn... Jeff. Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
