well, Stereolab sold out before i could get a ticket i'll have to decide if i can afford to pay ticket-broker prices, which i probably can't.

Sleep coming back in May. And they are coming to a bigger venue this time which means they can actually turn on all their amps this time. Pretty sure the last place sold three times their capacity, it was miserable.

i found out yesterday that Acid Mothers Temple are coming back to the US. they'll be in DC in April, and tickets are only $15! their show last year was pretty spectacular..at one point Kawabata's guitar wound up hanging from the electrical wiring above the stage by the whammy arm while emitting shrieking feedback. big fun.

I just bought a pair of tickets for DC via the link on their website... https://stereolab.ochre.store/

i'm going to be out in the Rocky Mountains till the night of the 2d Brooklyn show. c'est la vie.

that's the first show i've been shut out from since like 1998.

so spring is now sorted:

Ben Ottewell and Ian Ball of Gomez 3/15 Jammin' Java, Vienna VA
Swervedriver 3/29 Warsaw, Brooklyn
Be Forest 4/3 Elsewhere, Brooklyn
Spiritualized 4/19 Fillmore, Philadelphia
Acid Mothers Temple 4/24 Black Cat, Washington DC
Damo Suzuki Network 5/13 PhilaMOCA, Philadelphia

I'm seeing Guitar Wolf in Tokyo in a few weeks. I'm there for work then taking a bullet train across the country to see them before I fly back.

End of April = Gories + Oblivians in NYC.

Stereo-fucking-lab in Phoenix! Who knew...About to check out Low and Uncle Acid as well.

Death Side april
Killing Joke may

imJonWain: lucky. Guitar Wolf!

of course I say that and they email me the next day postponing the trip by a month...

getting really impatient for the spring concert season to begin. i want to see Swervedriver, Acid Mothers Temple, and Damo Suzuki real bad.

Oneida and Mugstar tomorrow as March has slowly turned into an insane gig month. Festival season slowly kicking into gear after that, and all those lineups look immense. And then I wonder why I haven't had any gear money in years

Also re: Stereolab who's still in the band these days?

don't know...it hasn't been stated anywhere i know of, and i'm on their mailing list. assumedly Gane and Laeticia will be there, otherwise it wouldn't be Stereolab.

!!! used to tour as Stereolad and do stereolab covers.
