I'm sorry, but this is a fucking weak last show.

just for the record, when I posted this, KF's site said:

"Akron/Family curates New Year's Eve featuring performances by Deerhoof, Akron/Family, Dirty Projectors, Deer Tick, Megafaun, tons more - a full-club event!"

Now it says:
"Akron/Family curates New Year's Eve! Featuring performances by Deerhoof, Akron/Family, Dirty Projectors, Deer Tick, Megafaun, tons more & very special surprise guests - a full-club farewell to the Leonard Street Knit!"

updating

i can't believe someone thinks a show of folks who could individually sell out the knit is a weak last show. have fun at crystal castles, loser.

aw snap - is HARD BOP on that shit?

i keep getting an error

"i can't believe someone thinks a show of folks who could individually sell out the knit is a weak last show. have fun at crystal castles, loser."

i think it's a weak last show because these bands all suck. and crystal castles suck, too. but nice try guessing who i like!

"i think it's a weak last show because these bands all suck. and crystal castles suck, too. but nice try guessing who i like!"

Can I guess? You like... Garth Brooks? Britney Spears? Golden Animals?

has anyone successfully bought tickets?

MMJ fools

I always hated The Knitting Factory---both locations. I won't miss it and Luna Lounge isn't the best venue either.

this is a freakin awesome bill, and if it's really all three floors, there are probably like a zillion more lineup additions to look forward to. Knitting Factory if you're reading this, please add Lemonade, Crystal Stilts, Grizzly Bear, and Animal Collective.

MMJ will be a nice long 4 hour jam with 7 dollar beers but I'd rather be stuck downtown in the middle of nowhere then caught in all that times square new years traffic. I don't know why i guess it's because I'm so indie

"MMJ fools"

I agree. Anyone going to MMJ is a fool.

Sometimes it pays to put off Deciding What To Do For NYE. Just got a pair, thanks BeaV!

Why are you comparing your "good time" with others?

Dummies.

Enjoy your NYE shows.

i second that HARD BOP

special guests are pavement and neutral milk hotel

just kidding

this is going to rule

special guests are a surprise appearance from the vivian girls and dan deacon

OMG

yes yes yesssssssssssssss

special guest? cobralegs.

cobralegs! now you got me excited...

last year's KF new year's party was terrrrible. i don't think i could trust them again on this one.

The best show I ever seen there was

7 seconds/Kill Your Idols/Champion

what about cobralegs, badgernun and yetidance? That was A SHOW

secret guest? cobrastarship

who goes to a show on NYE? how about getting together with friends and friends of friends and getting f*cked up and party! instead of $7 beers and standing around at some bar or venue.

"who goes to a show on NYE? how about getting together with friends and friends of friends and getting f*cked up and party! instead of $7 beers and standing around at some bar or venue."

Um well my friends are going to the show with me and then we're gonna go out after the show and drink and do drugs all night...

Yeah I could see someone wanting to go to a show on NYE, but I would much rather just party with friends. The only NYE show I ever almost went to was Flaming Lips/Wilco/Sleater Kinney at MSG.

NYE live music shows are the best. no better way to bring in the year. i alternate tho. parties are fun too. i guess it starts from the dead doing NYE runs...

6 nights of ylt Hanukkah>this is sounding nice...

best show ive ever seen there? riverboat gamblers...

worst show ive ever seen there? badly drawn boy's first us show...

best show - avail and american nightmare

worst show - elliot's final ny show

most interesting show - dillinger escape plan and old dirty bastard

I'm really hoping Crystal Stilts get added to this.

It's a very folky New Years Eve Charlie Brown!

are stilts being added or that is pure speculation? id pay to see chairlift and mgmt.....overall ny should have way better shows for new years

elliott's last show in new york was at northsix the night after knitting.

on the topic of best ofs at knitting, the best band discoveries made there were interpol & explosions in the sky. and as much as i didn't care much for the venue or location, it still holds a lot of memories.

i miss the wetlands.

dillinger escape plan and old dirty bastard

1 am doors on a Sat night

Best fucking show ever.

8:05 - I was at that Avail show. Good call.

deerhoof is the only good band.

best knitting factory show:

Damo Suzuki's Network last october...... still can't get over it

OOIOO at the knit 2004

great show

Daft Punk at the knit. 1997

was pretty good. whatever.

Surprise guest: Bill Murray

Alice Glass can kick all of your asses.

"Surprise guest: Bill Murray"

^^ best comment/reply i've read on bv in a long time

any idea how the drinks are gonna work if you get the 65 dollar ticket? that means you drink as much as you want or is there some kind of limit?

personally im gonna cross my fingers and hope for something super mega awesome like Sonic Youth, we know at least that Lee will be in town because hes got a reading the next day.

HOW IS THIS NOT SOLD OUT YET?! GET ON IT!

"HOW IS THIS NOT SOLD OUT YET?! GET ON IT!"

you've got to be kidding me.

they waited too long to announce

someone said Thanksgiving Brown was on this? If so, I'm holding 50 tix on ticketweb right now -lemme know, confirm?? He's like, NYC's #1 DJ right now and forever.

but what about crystal stilts?

>>>but what about crystal stilts?

I believe the idea is to stay up past midnight, not to put everyone to sleep.

can someone please tell me why they like crystal stilts? yuck.

"can someone please tell me why they like crystal stilts? yuck."

Because they're good, though I wouldn't equate anyone that uses the word "yuck" to have good taste, so I'm not surprised you don't like them. Really it's not your fault. You are just lesser developed than most.

Beginner-level guitar chords + off-key vocals + snare-only drums + all out of sync = good?

I guess if you bury any crap under a ton of reverb it sounds "good" to some ears.

loser

truth

Crystal Stilts are already playing there December 20th, so I doubt they'll play NYE too.

The Knitting Factory invited their friends to curate full-club shows during their last month in that location - Anti-Pop Consortium, WNYU, Anticon, Nick from Islands, Oneida, Akron Family ...

DJ Thanksgiving Brown was added to New Years Eve

how bout all yall use yer parent's money to buy beer and pay rent.
Fuuuuuuccccckkkkkkkkk you. Buy some kool clothes too. You fucks.

Best show at Knit:

Modest Mouse/Dismemberment Plan
