free winter 2008 shows of new york

Oh the Sat line-up is tempting, I like Laura Cantrell. Don't know the rest (besides Stevie, obv).

/sinister

rest of the lineup is mostly alt-countryish, jason isbell is from drive-by truckers

oakley hall is country-rock band led by ex-oneida dude, they're pretty good live

Marshall Crenshaw

i think you'd dig him laurel, early career was almost power pop.

now i have "some day, some way" stuck in my head. fuck.

^^^agreed

xpost

ha, me too.

So this is outdoors? I will have to take a giant Thermos of cider & rum.

aren't those WFC shows outdoors though? nighttime outdoor show in january? I don't think it's gonna be 60 this weekend

haha xpost

it's in the winter garden (indoors), i assume.

Oh no, I see, it's in the Winter Garden. xp Yes.

Pissed Jeans at Silent Barn on 2/15

Apparently the Knit show is tomorrow, anyway. 6pm and $10 if anyone wants to text me about it...otherwise I maybe go to soul in Park Slope or a loft party at Dumbo.

I think Avery Tare and some of those people are playing glasslands sunday --anyone?

^ intrsted

I didn't like them last time I saw them.

Entry Type: Performance
Location: GlassLAnds (THIS IS THE PAW TRACKS RECORD RELEASE PARTY FOR FIRST NATION!)
Street Adr: 289 Kent Ave

I thot Deacon and Geologist were playing too

I thought First Nation changed their name to Rings. (not really a fan of them ... or that Avey solo record)

I sold my Avery Tare stuff before animal collective was popular ;_;

3/11 The Black Lips / Quintron & Miss Pussycat

March 5th @ knit Sunburned Hand of the Man <-- liking fire escape

those both look good

I'm seeing Malkmus at Bowery in April even though I'm not holding out much hope that his new record is any good. a friend invited me / twisted my arm

apparently malk sold out 3 shows in 1 day? I was kinda shocked, and I wanted to go. o well

and deakin is playing btw

I think the first 2 sold out immediately so they added a third that went on sale a couple days later (which is the one I got tix to)

who's going to glasslands tonight?

first first nation record was damned spotty, to say the least, but ive seen them be very good...im tempted to think that that crew has hit a weird stagnant period (and probably wont be able to stand after a day of beer and football)...but im hip to know how the show goes

SONIC BOOM

Union Hall Brooklyn, New York
Jan 26 2008 9:00P

Mercury Lounge (NYC) Manhattan, New York

the last time i saw sonic boom he knocked my beer over, but was very polite about it

are those free though?

NO. Morbz is just cheap and doesn't pay for shows.

i am also cheap.

hard to pass up that union hall show, it's so close to my apt.

supposed to be kind of a crappy venue tho? (I've never been downstairs)

I'm also cheap too.

I missed Wizzards at the new museum.

what does sonic boom do at a show nowadays .... guitar? ambient laptop shit?

CD-J's with phaser?

might have to go to studio b for this

Six Organs of Admittance, Mick Turner (of Dirty Three)

-Mercury Lounge

I had such a good time at the Queers/Leftovers, that was the most fun thing I did all weekend. Sadly I'm gone all of this Sat, 1/26 so no shows for me. Next thing on my calendar is the Lyres/Black Hollies on 2/16.

Sonic Boom played Spectrum songs and covered the Kraftwerk song "Hall of Mirrors" when he played Chicago. He was smoking weed backstage and my friend asked him if he had any cd's for sale and he said "talk to him" and motioned towards white backpacker guy. My friend said "so, do you have any cd's for sale?" and the guy pulled out his own rap album.

I think sexyDancer might have some stories?

i would like to arrange a field trip to satyagraha in april.
info

the Met has scheduled Einstein for 2009

yes! and also dr. atomic i think.

is doing drugs after making music to make drugs to a story?

didn't he get kicked out? did he eat now or laters?

RELIGIOUS KNIFEPHONE!

I saw tyvek at the charleston...you couldn't hear anything. Just vocals, bass and a drum. Guitars would've been nice!

saw em open for pissed jeans .... they started out sounding kinda off but really hit a stride the second half of their (short) set

definitely didn't have any of that Rough Trade feel that some of their records have though. more like Dirtbombsy VU-influenced garage rock. (not that that's bad, just dift. from stuff like "Air Conditioner")

Oh that's too bad -- I feel like when I saw them -- was I at the same show as you, Dave? -- they were droney and slow and I was hoping for a more Dirtbombsy set (obv).

i saw them at the dearly departed big horse lounge about a year and a half ago, they were f'ing great.

yeah laurel we're talking abt the same show

they were droney and slow

you think everything is droney! get hip to the drone! ;) I guess that's what I meant by VU garage (also I think that comparison was in my mind when I saw that show becuz I saw Dirtbombs at Southpaw a few weeks before that and they covered "I Heard Her Call My Name" which was awesome).

laurel hates to drone!
they were not droney either time i saw them tho (both at house parties) just pretty heavy and rockin

laurel, if you think that's droney, stay away from Growing!

Yeah, I guess so! My threshold for "stoner" rock is low. I can't drink and listen to that stuff, it makes me feel awful.

keep that hippie space-rock outta laurel's garage

Right, I couldn't remember who was at the F**** Up/Pissed Jeans show and who was at the Charleston one (last fall).

Which also made me feel really really sleepy/muzzy in the haid and I had to go home.

anyone heard any pierced arrows stuff yet?

I get PAID on thurs. What is up weeekend?

I get PAID on thurs. What is up weeekend?

Zombies Are Real: Actual Zombies of the Natural World And Why You Might
Be One
By Jeremy Kay

Description: You might think of zombies as trite B-movie material, but
scientists are discovering more and more real zombies in nature. These
natural zombies have had their brains taken over by parasites, who use
their zombified hosts to further their own ends – like reproducing or
finding their way into the brain of a new host. Tonight I'll give some
examples of the crazy and self-destructive things that animals do when
they've been turned into zombies. I'll explore the neurobiology of how a
parasite can control the behavior of its host. And I'll reassure
everyone that we humans don't have anything to fear from zombies... or
do we?

Bio: Jeremy is a postdoctoral fellow in neurobiology at Harvard. His
professional work concerns vision, but he thinks parasite mind-control
is far more interesting. His interest in zombies is purely academic.
Really. Like, your brain will totally not get eaten if you show up. We
promise.

As they say in Boston, "Nerd Nite is like the Discovery Channel with beer."

Presentation #2:
Pythagoras and Beethoven Sitting in a tree! The Magical Mathematics of
Music.
by Jaime Peters

Description: Galileo said the entire universe is "written in the
language of mathematics." Well, part of that entire universe is music.
You may say, but music and math have no real connection. But I say au
contraire. Come hear about how the entirety of a song (whether it sounds
good or sounds bad) can be broken down to a single ratio that governs
harmonious sound.

Bio: By day, Jaime Peters spends her time toiling to get more women
involved in the political process and creating a truly representative
democracy. By night, she plays the saxophone with a local Brooklyn jazz
ensemble and walks her dog Scarlett through the maze of Park Slope.

Presentation #3:
Different Sizes of Infinity
by Chris DiScenza

Description: Infinity has many strange properties, with the main result
being _______. Well, if we told you now we'd ruin it, but you'll be
shocked. This presentation will also show that there is a true statement
about infinity that can not be proved or disproved. Surprisingly, there
is not any technical math required to show all of this.

Bio: Chris works at The Physics Factory which is comprised of a team of
scientists and educators who share a common goal: to share their
enthusiasm for physics with students, teachers and the community.
Through a combination of hands-on learning and eye-popping stage shows,
The Physics Factory aims to show that physics is an exciting process of
discovery and invention, and a rewarding career. Chris has infinite
enthusiasm for physics. Get it?

I haven't seen liars in over 6 years

I haven't seen liars.

Apes & Liars --

Sept 28 2001 The Bug Jar
Rochester NY

Really cool show at a cool place set up by Mr Mark Benoit. Two girls who'd seen us in DC came out in capes to match Paul's and danced with him during the show: very cool. Got to play Joust on the original arcade cabinet at Mark's house.

I won't be seeing liars.

Does anyone want to go to Fette Sau sat evening?

think I'll pass, I just went to Fette Sau post-Sharx.

Liars were pretty good last time, it was the Drums Not Dead tour. "Broken Witch" slayed.

but it's the same night as Joakim

also sanskrit tells me there is some Rub N Tug party at a new venue in Carroll Gardens? many options

rub-n-tug are at a loft on Classon.

but the other people djing don't sound very fun
Qool DJ Marv
VH1, HBO, and Fader Magazine all chase after his Marv’s legendary live sets, but tonight he gets back to Brooklyn basics with us – mixing his 90’s classics, with new school Hip Hop via Disco, a little early House, some 70’s soul, Jazz Funk and an assortment of British beats’n’pieces.

Sujinho
As one half the NYC/Sao Paulo collective, NOSSA, Sujinho is an international spot rocker. NOSSA’s epic mix cd, I Love Baile Funk, brought the beat of Brazilian favela to the heart of NYC, Suji’s genre defying remixes and hard-textured production style has kept the dance floor happy ever since.

I don't know what to do Saturday.

Ben's DJ thing?

sorry dmr, meant to email you last night after seeing you. i don't know how far we'll actually get saturday.. as you said these kids don't go out til 1am.

Well I mean not NOTHING but you know, nothing on my gcal.

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!

sorry dmr, meant to email you last night after seeing you.

oh no biggie dude, I woulda looked it up anyway

not sure about those middle two guys but I saw $mall Change dj a 90s rap set at rubulad once, he was fun. (I think he has a show on FMU)

I know and that might still happen, ben, but "psych explorations"?

i think last i saw liars was w/ yyy's and devndra banhart at...manhattan ballroom?

id like to see them...but...well...i fergot and now have obligations

small change used to be on fmu, hes a good guy..used to do parties for us...

its pretty garagey psych stuff for the most part...atleast what i pulled...

there is also this german disco record i forgot about...which is awesome..i owe a certain othermusic clerk for tricking me into buying this

NO DISS INTENDED BEN
MY MAN ASKED FOR SOME INFO LAST NITE

no worries, mike

but im gonna slug dave...

err..no, no im not

if people come by, awesome...im basically helping out a friend...and trying to make it fun all around

who gonna dance w/ me to ben's tunez tonite????

umm evidently nobody...

thnks trza!

ullgh...trying to ply to weird new e village is hard. who are these kids? why don't they like silly german disco? or turkish psych

btw the nobody remark is not aimed at noisers

i like turkish psych!

well i had a few dance partners but no noizers! and also the rest of the bar just kind of stood there while the 5 of us rocked out. anyway...

Sat PM: Home Blitz/Cause Co-Motion at Cakeshop. Doors at 8, forget who the two first bands are. This is taking precedence right now over the Lyres at Club Midway, so SPEAK UP ANYONE if you're thinking of going to either one.

Then Subway Soul at Rififi for after, if I'm still functional.

i really wanna see home blitz again but i'll probably be out of town :(

"Whoah. I gotta get some gum."

lyres are tentative for me at the moment due to old friend unexpectedly in town.

xpost
haha srsly
last time i saw them they fucked up a LOT but they were fun anyway. google sez that was their 2nd show ever though.

The Lyres rule! Can live without the Black Hollies, though, and Midway is less convenient than Cakeshop. GRRRR SCHEDULING.

HOME BLITZ.

i gotta get me some gum.

"Whoah. I gotta get some gum."

shit, didn't see that.

http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=7795914298

this looks cool

http://www.noordinarymonkey.com/img/LOVE_FEB16.jpg

I haven't. I know some people who post here have seen him play (Dan? maybe Sanskrit?)

have been to Love, once, to see Metro Area dj and it was sort of dead. but I guess it gets a good crowd sometimes ...

dope sound system

that one carpeted room is like a life size habitrail

ugh there are like 30 shows next sat and i am stuck working!

looked for rza but the place was full! I sat next to Ashley who made discrete hand gestures during his piece

going to Boulez / Messiaen at 3:30 at Carnegie

morbs said he saw you but i did not! i did not see much of anything, but that's my fault for arriving at 7:50 i suppose! so was ashley approval won? we decided it would have been awesome if he got up and started screaming 'no no no' halfway through the piece (which was a+).

he stayed for both sets, at end of 2nd set he shook their hands as they left the stage. at end of 1st set he turned to Tom Hamilton and said 'their sounds are so lovely'

I fucked up my wrists on graham ave (over the handlebars) right in front of a cop car and a bodega. Everyone at the bodega laughed at me.

their sounds ARE so lovely! tabla machine!!!

jon mebbe that is karmic revenge for bailing on plans!

I bailed on plans because my toilet exploded asshole

Did not go to metal show, regrettably.

there might have been BOYS there laurel!!!

Eh they probably all had long hair.

when toilet explodes, phone.

fyi mp3 of "rainbow flag" is here

the gatefold double vinyl and ITunes edition of the album also includes the bonus track “Hashish Master” that features a guest solo synth improvisation from none-other-than minimalist mastermind Terry Riley

^_^

Thanks everybody for coming to the shows! But come say hi! Don't be shy.

I'm really sorry I couldn't come, Drew. I had a sewer back up into my bathroom and was dealing with that all day. I'm very bummed.

i'm sorry too, drew...had an opening early and am still fighting ill health...was really hoping to catch you and martin in a good space, butmy hopes are stronger than my body these days....

and reading happiness over show makes me sad...

sometime soon, i do very much hope! the bit on the meatador blog sounds rather wonderful!

im sad imissed the gibby and genesis dj sets w/ bck dice/sktrs too...ulgh...i have to get meyself beack to life

i didn't even see gibby or genesis.... too busy chasing friends around and drinking tall boyz. IUD were the best last night i guess.

i like the 7"

I wish I'd said hi, Drew, but you were surrounded and it's still hard to say "I'm Dr Morbius from the internet."

Robert Ashley tonight at Issue Project Room, hope to see peoples there

I like you, Milton Parker, but I will not be there. You kids and your "difficult" music.

i sadly can't go tonight...how long are you about for, mr milton parker?

I can't afford to go.

you can't afford not to go

I like you too Laurel -- but Ashley doesn't make "difficult" music, he makes "super-music". this is my last night here but I'm back in May

well, I could eat or I could go.

I MIGHT GO!

oh wait dan deacon

so everyone's excited to see Matmos as the COVER Robert Ashley, but seeing the man himself is a huge pass. and dan deacon is a no brainer. okee.

i don't know who you are or why you're so damn judgmental but did it occur to you that there might be valid reasons people can't go to gowanus on a tuesday night and that those reasons != "huge pass"?

roar

listen, pally, we like our robert ashley plenty...but some nights just don't work

haha, listen, no judgements, i was just making commentary on how shot down that was. jeez louise.

Looks like I'm headed to the Environ / Kelley Polar thang- maybe see some of y'all there!

I will keep an eye out for you!

will say hi this time

cool, I'll be up there too

how late do people anticipate being there? trying to gauge whether or not i should even bother trying to come after work (12 or 12:30?)
