its funny to see the oatmeal thing because i've seen in two or three places people complain that fugazi were so po faced they contributed 'oatmeal' to a recipe column, or something

I'm kind of excited - certainly intrigued - by the idea of Guy Picciotto playing live in a couple of weeks.
I know he's done some stuff with the Silver Mount Zion guys, and he played guitar with Vic Chestnutt and all that - but could this be an actual, like, solo set? I hope so...
The event will be held on November 15 at New York's Le Poisson Rouge. It will feature performances from Jeff Mangum, TV on the Radio's Tunde Adebimpe, Sonic Youth's Lee Ranaldo and Fugazi's Guy Picciotto, plus non-musical talent like comic Janeane Garofalo, director John Cameron Mitchell, culture jammers the Yes Men, and more.

somehow the phrase "non-musical talent" made me laugh

jcm's pretty musical
i want to know where the style guide for that publication stands oxford comma wise
― set the controls for the heart of the congos (thomp), Friday, 2 November 2012 16:07 (eleven years ago) link
That reads to me as if Ranaldo and Picciotto are playing a set together.

I actually read it that way as well! Not just oxford comma trolling -- I really thought that's what they meant.

Differently Comma'd version, from Brooklyn Vegan

so Guy is performing with Jeff Mangum, it turns out.
http://clatl.com/cribnotes/archives/2012/11/14/guy-piccotto-talks-rites-of-spring-fugazi-and-the-indelible-power-of-youth -- good interview, ends with Guy demurring at the idea of ever doing a solo record or a Rites show, although "I do hope to put out another record, and my hope is always to one day be in a band again"

― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 21 July 2015 16:12 (eight years ago) link
Hmmm... me too. Are you sure it's a specific song and not a general vibe? Because I do hear a resemblance.
It's weird how much 80s Dischord stuff has a kind of U2/U.K. big-guitar post-punk sound. I've heard that the Minor Threat guitarists actually were U2 fans towards the end, and you can hear the influence on something like "Salad Days". But it's all over Embrace, some Rites of Spring, and definitely the fantastic and overlooked post-ROS band One Last Wish.
― JRN, Tuesday, 21 July 2015 19:17 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, there's a specific instrumental break I'm thinking of from ... an early album/ep?
― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 21 July 2015 20:35 (eight years ago) link
The intro sounds a little like the intro to Suggestion but slower maybe?
― five six and (man alive), Tuesday, 21 July 2015 20:38 (eight years ago) link
sounds a bit like intro to 'bad mouth'?
― feargal czukay (NickB), Tuesday, 21 July 2015 20:53 (eight years ago) link
oh wait, I am totally thinking of Bad Mouth, not Suggestion.

See, this is why I read this forum. I've never heard of One Last Wish before right now. Now I have some investigating to do.
― austinato (Austin), Tuesday, 21 July 2015 22:13 (eight years ago) link
They existed for eight months in 1986 and made one album that didn't get released until 1999. It's so good. My favorite track:

I had a running joke with friends about the guy/ian vocal dynamic being a whiny toddler/stern parent thing.

I spent a lot of time studying the mysteries of a samizdat One Last Wish/Happy Go Licky tape in the mid-90s. "My Better Half" is tremendous but HGL's "Torso Butter" is imo the peak of Dischord/U2 crossover:

I think so much of what works about Fugazi is the tension between Ian and Guy. There's an Ego/Id aspect to it, masculine/feminine, disciplined/free, etc. Heard in both their singing styles and lyrical styles, haven't really given thought to whether it applies to their guitar playing too.
― five six and (man alive), Wednesday, 22 July 2015 15:52 (eight years ago) link
Well, as Ian has said, it's more of a Chuck D./Flava Flav deal. It def. applies to their guitar. Ian plays an SG, so Guy specifically picked the most un-SG guitar, a Rick.

Well Ian was essentially the band's rhythm guitarist and obv something he preferred. Obviously a lot more bottom end than his bandmate.
Usually anything 'lead' was G.
