With less than two weeks to go before Japan’s legendary Boredoms bring their much-anticipated 77BOADRUM sound installation to life in New York City, details about the one-time-only performance have been revealed to the Daily Swarm.

The event will take place on July 7, 2007 (07/07/07) in Brooklyn, NY at the Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park, which sits in the picturesque sliver of space between the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges. The gates will open at 4:00 PM, and the show features performances by First Nation and Soft Circle and DJ sets from Gang Gang Dance before the 77-minute 77BOADRUM performance takes place just before sunset. Admission is free, but an RSVP is required. Full details, directions, and RSVP information will be available at www.viceland.com/77boadrum soon.

The performance’s 77 full 5-piece, 3 cymbal drum kits will be arranged in a circular pattern, spiraling out from the center like a coiled snake, where the Boredoms’ own drum kits and Eye’s electronic instruments will sit atop a raised platform. Joining the Boredoms will be 74 additional drummers, 10 of whom will serve as drum leaders and cue the rest.

The volunteer army of drummers represent many of the best players in New York City’s avant/experimental underground and were selected by the event’s music director Hisham Bharoocha. They come from a diverse group of bands and musicians who have drawn influence and inspiration from the Boredoms throughout the group’s 20-year career, including Hugo Burnham of Gang of Four, Tim Dewit and Lizzi Bougatsos of Gang Gang Dance, Andrew W.K., David Grubbs, Hart Mingus of Negative Approach, Matthias Schulz of Holy Fuck, and members of Aa, Crash Worship, God Is My Co-Pilot, Sunburned Hand of the Man, Oneida, Excepter, Antietam, Dymaxion, Panthers, and many others. The full line-up of drummers will be finalized this week.

Why 77BOADRUM on 7/7/07? The Boredoms’ Eye explains:

It’s a quite primitive concept. It’s related to where Japanese people came from. There is a river called Amur River, in Russia. Amur River is huge, gigantic river, almost like sea. We Japanese come from the north of the river.

North means above, above means cosmic. If you go further up in space, there is a river. A river of stars in heaven. We came from this place. Japanese people have an idea of this subconsciously.

Amur sounds like the Japanese word Ama. Ama means sky, cosmos, the universe. We see the Milky Way as a river of stars, we imagine it’s like a river in the sky.

In Japan, we have the Star Festival on July 7. It is the middle of the rainy season. If we get lucky, we can see Milky Way in clear sky. Every Japanese person knows a romantic myth related to July 7.

July 7 is supposed to be only day in the year you can see two stars on each edge of the Milky Way. People think one side as a girl, other side as a boy, and they are meant to be a couple. They can only see each other, once a year, on July 7, by crossing Milky Way. Where did that myth come from? It came our Japanese ancestors who lived near the sacred Amur River.

The original inhabitants of Japan had a philosophy called Animism, which believes there are numerous gods in nature. They worshiped the gods in nature. I feel sympathy for that way of thinking.

The people coming from Amur were the opposite, rather powerful and systematic. As new settlers the Amur people needed to get along with original inhabitants, so they declared themselves messengers from the sun, messengers of Amaterasu, the sun god. The Japanese people today came from Amaterasu. We come from the sun.

7 is the number when we try to express sun as sound. When I glance at the sun, I see number 7.

no mention of oomoto?

your information is wrong, sir.

1st, it is not "vinyl-only", there is a CD of this on toy's factory: http://www.discogs.com/release/9605

2nd, the artist given in the comp is DJ pica pica pica, but instead of the "pica" is a kanji symbol

3rd, it's not an untitled track, it has a title, but the title is a weird icon that looks like a steaming plate. sort of a round shape like a parenthesis mark lying down for a nap, and three wavy lines rising out of it.

close examination of the obi strip will show you the artist name for EYE - it's the one after YAS

http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?what=R&obid=9605

there was some dude at nyc show that kept shouting out 'wooo eye love you' shit and everyone wass like 'lol.. uh...'

dc sucks but at least that guy doesn't live here. everybody mostly shut up after the first section. the encore was 100% focused psych nerds

like standing up for an opera

3rd, it's not an untitled track, it has a title, but the title is a weird icon that looks like a steaming plate. sort of a round shape like a parenthesis mark lying down for a nap, and three wavy lines rising out of it.

great show. at the very beginning, when they hit the first long rest, some shitwag gave a "WHOOOO!" and EYE gave him this incredibly smarmy evil eye. that was worth the ticket alone

London Boadrum show just confirmed: http://www.atpfestival.com/events/boadrumlondon2010.php

boadrum!!

Wicked.

Are you going, Cecily?

SO EXCITED

I saw them, finally! Last saturday! It was so very good!

Plus, concert took place here, which turned out to be the perfect venue:

http://img.fotocommunity.com/Industrie/Industrie-Landschaft/Halde-Haniel-Ueberblick-a20852902.jpg

One of the most mesmerizing evenings I ever witnessed.

WTF

where was that?!?

mentalism!!!~

It's one of the biggest mine dumps in Germany. 159m above sea level in otherwise flat terrain. You could see for kilometres from there.
Whoever had the idea to book them for this venue deserves lifelong gratuitous love services imo.

Bizarrely, due to this concert being part of a big cultural triennale festival, a good half of the audience consisted of nice and entirely unaware 60+-year-old people who got their ticket as part of their subcription packages.
Hardly any walkouts, though.

can't imagine a better audience for them at this point

except stonarz oc

but yeah that looks like a completely amazing place to see a doms

wowowww

http://www.ruhrtriennale.de/en/programm/spielstaetten/halde-haniel/

were there buses going up there or did people drive their own vehicles? it seems perfect for a boredoms show

crazy space to see anything

hallo mentalists

"nice and entirely unaware 60+-year-old people" in germany who didn't get up at a boredoms show

lol stonarz

they showed up for sun ra

xpost
Yeah, there were buses. Might be a reason why so few considered leaving mid-concert and walking down alone...

good place to set up a colony of noize dudes
