NODZZZ, Woods, and WAVVES were all excellent yesterday too. And yes, Black Dogs were a no show.

UHHH - tickets just went on sale for the dead milkmen at warsaw!! BV, you sleeping on this?

LAMC was amazing....Wavves ripped it up completely

blank dogs seem to cancel a lot? or is it just overzealous promoters adding him to the bill unconfirmed?

avey tare was at this show and he dug gary war, whom you neglected to mention opened the show!

Best $5 I have spent on music yesterday in a long time. All 3 bands were each different and played well. I think if you look back at this bill in 6 months many will be kicking themselves for not going. I only went Sunday and the place despite it's timy size sounded alright. Would have loved for this to have been at the merc but heck no would it have been $5 - but easily would have paid up for a slightly larger room.

Market Hotel show was fantastic.

isn't wavves two guys?

more shows at underground lounge

Blank Dogs are testy. I assure you promoters are not adding him to bills "unconfirmed"

Blank Dogs was fucking awesome on Saturday night

Photos from the Market Hotel edition of that bill here: http://www.imposemagazine.com/wavves-at-market-hotel/12685/

Mr. Blank Dog is not "testy". He's a perfectly nice guy, he just didn't like having his music and a photo posted on brooklynvegan without his consent. More people should stand up to this site's blatant theft of intellectual property for profit.

what does that have to do with Blank Dogs canceling show(s), 3:10?

Someone in the band was sick.
Just because he canceled doesn't mean he's "testy", despite how he got thrown under the bus here.

"Mr. Blank Dog is not "testy". He's a perfectly nice guy, he just didn't like having his music "Mr. Blank Dog is not "testy".

"brooklynvegan" did not leave the "testy" comment. The "testy" comment was in response to someone asking why Blank Dogs cancels shows and was obviously written by someone close to the situation since they wrote "I assure you promoters are not adding him to bills unconfirmed".

Anon 3:10 (probably Mr. Blank Dog himself) obviously read into the "testy" comment and brought up something completely unrelated to any conversation going on in this thread (until now).

"""Just because he canceled doesn't mean he's "testy", despite how he got thrown under the bus here."""

SOMEONE IS CERTAINLY TAKING HARMLESS COMMENTS PRETTY PERSONALLY!

testy!

all of this is harmless, everyone here is a nice guy.

blank dogs are mind blowing and will be playing shows more regularly from now on, hooray!

Fader has an hilarious dissection of that lame NYTimes review posted at length above:

WAVVVES>WAVVES

the dude from CaUSE Co-MOTION! are in the Market crowd pics

People in bands actually go to shows, isn't it weird

Sunday was the best day (except for the whole, lame Blank Dogs canceling thing).

Woods never sounded better and Wavves was great. Nodzzz were good also, but not as noticeably better than the other two.

Gorilla v. Bear has audio of an unreleased Wavves song from the Friday night show:

Blank Dogs only had to cancel on Sunday because Todd P didn't tell Mr. Blank Dog (who has a job) about the show before booking it.

6:14, who the hell are you and why do you think you know the circumstances of something you have nothing to do with

I'm really glad that someone took the time and care to carefully place the duck tape on the stairwell to get in and out of LAMC. Thank God for that, because otherwise I'm CONVINCED I would have forgot how to use stairs.

hey 12:51. believe me, the tape worked and made things a lot more efficient. one side for in and one side for out, enshrined in tape, actually helped.

the lines getting in and getting out moved a lot faster than at other shows there.

No it was less confuuuusing

you're lame, Avant Guarde Musician

(sigh)

DUCT TAPE OFFENDS ME PERSONALLY

That "hilarious dissection of that lame NYTimes review" from Fader was neither hilarious nor a dissection.

It reads like some kneejerk high school clique mystique defense to the popular kid realizing that the nerds and outcasts are actually pretty neat...

So the (self-appointed) pariahs enjoy that moment briefly and say, "I told you so," but they get scared soon after that their precious scene has been compromised.

They hold a secret meeting and they're like, "We gotta get these guys back, and how!" In their brainstorming session, they discuss such drastic actions as egging the popular kid's house and letting the air out of his tires, but in the end settle for a poorly written opinion piece in the school newspaper.

And what happens?

Well, they all graduate and move on with their lives. The popular kid has learned a valuable lesson from his short friendship with the cabal of cool and has come to realize that things aren't always as they seem. Indeed, curiousities often demand exploration. In his continued willingness to learn and explore, he makes many friends and develops a rich understanding of the world and its fascinating & varied cultures.

Less fortunate are those scene kids who are forced to grow up by the perseverance of time and the marketplace. They parlay their school paper careers into covering the scene on a regional or national level...but in their quest to guard the gate of cool and simultaneously exist within the realm of cool, they destroy themselves and lose touch. They lose touch with their thoughts, their opinions, their ability to discern, their own personal sense of culture...

And they are left alone with lonely sarcasm.

Thank you.

duct tape is bad for the environment
always put the environment before entertainment efficiency or safety people

I'll take the NYT over Fader any day.

kind of hilarious that Fader thinks they represent any "cool kid" critical perspective.

They're even nerdier than the Vice people.

why'd that article dis Woods so hard?

Woods were excellent

"why'd that article dis Woods so hard? "

Because Woods actually are not good.

nice comeback 1:22, debates are always won by someone saying "no" and nothing more to support their argument. Neato.

Woods will be appreciated in good time, they're an amazing unique band

I also enjoyed woods very much. and brian maloney got me thinking about Freaks and Geeks final episode. gawd i miss that show.

"Woods will be appreciated in good time, they're an amazing unique band"

no

anonymous 1:45 probably listens to MGMT religiously

Looks like Todd P has been posting some anonymous statements about the show.

fuck all this bullshit. seriously. what fucking garbage. fuck mgmt too

Todd Free NYC please!
