Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
i felt the need: best shows i ever saw: modest mouse with 764 hero and murder city devils at bard college on november 5th 1998. any old time list members remember i wrote up like a 4 page review and posted it (as my first post). theres nothing like whenever you see fit with both bands followed by isaac's threats to kick some kid in the audience's ass and the entire stage being lit on fire more than once while the spencer from MCD sings doin the cockroach. flaming lips and cornelius at the recent "Music against brain degredation" tour at the Roxy in boston. cornelius = truly amazing, and well.. the lips.. they just have this crazy mystique about them. plus i was new to the roxy so the whole thing was pretty wild. plus i locked my keys in the car before that so i had a wacky adrenaliane rush trying to get them out. if youre laughing at that and going "dork" then youve pretty much just nailed my personality. :D Neutral Milk Hotel at the middle east in march of 98. an upstairs show and my first time seeing NMH, they did a gd job of kicking fuckin ass. and finally.. the Music Tapes at the Flywheel in Easthampton, MA. they played with Aden and Thimble Circus, but the music tapes are definetly the most eccletic rockin live show i ever saw. cant go wrong with chicken wire percussion and 7 foor tall metronomes. pure genius imho. ruxx http://home.digitalsushi.com/ruxxell/mmboots/
Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
the best shows I have ever seen: Sunny Day Real Estate @ the karma club in Boston last November Mogwai/Pavement in Burlington, VT a few years ago HUM @ the Middle East in Boston in February of 98 and of course... Modest Mouse at Amherst College, in May of 98 of course I have witnessed about a million other awesome performances, including this lists very own Ruxx performing Yars Revenge songs, live on my radio show last year...truly amazing!! He rocks! bye, darren www.redcarpetring.com

RE: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen

Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
oh yeah, it was horde. damn, i have built quite a reputation for myself of not knowing what the hell i'm talking about. I went to horde, warped tour, lollapalooza, and it's all a blur now...

It's a tough one, but I saw morphine at the warped tour two years ago. they played for what seemed like forever and it was an outdoor show which was cool. they were on the 2nd when they started their set there were a few people checking them out but by the time they were done the area was packed. they played their tritar and even treated us to some poetry. i might have enjoyed it more because i ate some funky mushrooms on my pizza, but i dont know. __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
I saw godspeedyoublackemperor! for the first time not too long ago and i might just have to say this was the best show I've ever seen. Something about them live is so magical - has anyone else ever seen them? i think i'm a better person for witnessing them perform. seth

Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
I think it had to be Elliott at Krazyfest this year.i was there for three days by the time they played on Sundayi was tired...it was raining...and the played there asses off.it was amazing... chris
Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
Heck yeah that's hard to narrow down, especially if you've hit up more then a hundred. A show that stands out as one of the best I've been to is a World Party concert 3 years ago. Hm... and every Havalina Rail Co. show I've ever seen, definetly. And every Danielson Family show too. Yeah, those are the best bands to see live. Rachel
Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
best shows i've seen: this is a hard question, but right now i'd say: Jeff Buckley @ the trocadero in Philly in 95 REM the other night in Boston Pearl Jam in New York many years ago(three and a half hour show--a rite of passage for me, definitely) Any Elliott Smith show I've seen. The Rolling Stones at the Fleet Center in Boston last year. and of course, joan of arc at the middle east. not the BEST show, but seeing tim kinsella live was s satisfying. :) *mer* np: zombies--greatets hits
Re: [MMouse]: the best show I've ever seen
best full show, Yo La Tengo and Superchunk. Encore had them playing together a Peter Frampton cover, and then they did Slack Mutherfu@ker together and some random boy inthe crowd jumped on and sang the whole song. wild. free beer for everyone all night and it was free dont look back, Daniel http://www.gurlpages.com/music/abnormal_spice/ ICQ-1010543 AIM-CoxonRyder Spatulas are the future
