Would listen to new music with an open mind.

Would not go to see play a gig.

cen fath? was that last gig they did here not good?

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

How many times have they played here? I saw them the first and thought it was like watching paint dry. But then much as I love the records,they don't really play the kind of music that appeals to me live.

(I have no idea what ce fath means? )

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

(I have no idea what cen fath means? )

It means 'why?'

Literally 'what reason?'

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Now I know then,see above.

yep, sorry dude. It means 'why?'

If memory serves they reformed and played spiderland (in crawdaddy I think). Thats a damn fine album and I really wanted to go, but couldn't. I know Pajo has been here since but that was the only Slint gig that happened here since I heard of the band (about 5/6 years back)

Then that's the only time they've played. (It was Vicar Street)

Shit venue unless it's packed.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

It was packed. (possibly sold out)

They played Vicar Street and did a varied set. Couple of years later they came back and did a Spiderland gig in Tripod

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

No excuse then.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Oh,ok then. After the first one,I'd have given that a miss. Don't imagine performance wise it would have been too different to me.
(and I'm sure I'm in the minority in my opinion of them live)

Plenty of people hated it but I liked that gig a lot.

I didn't much care for that one I have to say. But caught them doing Spiderland at Primavera and liked it enough to go again to the Tripod one.

They played every song on Spiderland at the Vicar Street gig.

 

[rettucs]

They played every song on Spiderland at the Vicar Street gig.

in the order they appeared on the album? If not it doesn't count.

I thought they were mostly great in Tripod. The Spiderland material was obviously the highlight and they also played the Glenn and Rhoda EP. However, the new song they played did nothing for me. It was recorded for a DVD that never materialised.

 

[Man In A Can]

I thought the Vicar Street gig was amazing, it blew me away. Tripod wasn't as good imo but i would definitely go to see them again.

Very underwhelming to be honest. Rumor has it it's not new at all. It was written around the time of the E.P but never made it beyond the practice room.

If they had've said things like 'Hello Dublin' and 'is everyone having a good time yet?' it might have gone down better
