The Breeders & Whispertown 2000 @ Bowery Ballroom - pics

Breeders

"Taking the stage were Kim and her sister Kelley along with the newer faces (including the drum and bass tandem of Jose Meledes and Mando Lopez, and guitarist Cheryl "from Florida" Lyndsey). They started off with the trippy "Hoverin'", an Amps song and went newer with Title TK, and then backward with cuts off of Last Splash and Pod. I personally wanted to see them play "Hellbound" and "Fortunately Gone", which tops my favorite Breeders songs, but they did play "I Decided" which I love. All the bigger songs got their turn, "Saints", "Cannonball", their cover of "Happiness is a Warm Gun", "Divine Hammer", "Safari". The sheer thrill of songs like "New Year" with an intense, buzzing guitar section really makes for a powerful set." [Kings County Bop]
So, as I was saying, The Breeders played two shows in NYC this week. The above review snippet is from Tuesday night's show at Bowery Ballroom. The pictures are from Wednesday. More of them below...

so much fun, what was the name of the song they played first on their first encore?

Posted by Anonymous | August 20, 2009 5:44 PM

The one with Kim on drums?

That's "The She" off of Title TK.

The big soaring one after that (or before it, so it might be your song) with Kim on keyboards was "Overglazed".

Fun Fact:

Kelly Deal's gold Les Paul guitar is the same one that Joey Santiago used on the early Pixies records.

same setlist both nights?

Posted by Anonymous | August 20, 2009 6:26 PM

Yes, same setlist except that the 2nd night got the Tipp City final encore that the first night did not.

I read that they played "We're Gonna Rise" in some other cities and there was chatter of "Invisible Man" but I don't think they've been playing it.

she needs to bring back "Dedicated"

Posted by anon | August 20, 2009 9:22 PM

and "Forced to Drive"

Posted by anon | August 20, 2009 9:22 PM

damn... I Am Decided. What a great song. Best tune on the Amps album (how could anything co-written by Bob Pollard in 1995 fail to be?)

I decided not to go this time (1) because I'd seen them twice last year, and (2) because those two shows were so great I didn't want a less-than-great experience this time around to spoil it.

But had I known they'd end up playing I Am Decided... damn.
