“For a few years now, people had been trying to get us to do Psychocandy shows, and there didn’t really seem much point to us [until] someone brought up the idea of a 30th-anniversary tour,” says Jim Reid, now 53, in a soft-spoken Scottish burr. “So we took it a bit more seriously, [thinking that] if we wait any later it’s going to be basically too late. William and myself had a good think and started to weigh out the pros and cons, and it seemed there were more reasons for doing it than not. We’d never performed a lot of the songs on the album live. It seemed like a good idea to go out and do those tunes.” – [Village Voice]

The Jesus and Mary Chain are on the last few dates of their North American tour celebrating Psychocandy‘s 30th anniversary. That tour hit NYC’s Terminal 5 last week for two shows (September 24 & 25). Both had the same setlists: an eight-song “hits” set followed by Psychocandy in full, with Aimee Nash from openers The Black Ryder joining the band to sing on “Just Like Honey.” More pics (including ones of The Black Ryder) from the first night, plus the setlist, below…
