filthy rumours (1 Viewer)

[Wheels]

Anyone else heard the rumour about Sonic Youth and Cornelius playing Shitnness? I'm very gullable and easily excited ( I once believed that Stereolab were playing DLIADT ), so I'm fully expecting to feel disapointed and stoopid quite soon. Unless anyone else has heard this....

No it was not. The sound was atrocious but it was good fun.

I also remember it being great. And ridiculously muddy.

I was only at wittness once and it was oxygen by then.

it was the year of all the MCD shit. Gosh, remember that. No one could talk about MCD on the internets for fear of being sued. Mad times.

I remember being at Lisdoonvarna and it being in Dublin. That was perkewliyar.

No it was not. The sound was atrocious but it was good fun.

My wife (girlfriend at the time) and I both felt they were going through the motions so we went and got chips. I saw them again in Marley Park (supporting The Chemical Brothers of all people) and they had a lot more fire in their bellies.

That was also good fun. I got the impression they were just larking about at that one rather than trying to be amazing, same at shittnness.

2 fucking Etihad shows

Lazy cunts won't tour. Expect us all to schlep over there.
I mean that debut record was great and all, but at what point are you just trading off the fumes of people's youths?

I think I was off watching the Hives or Green Day when they were on, I remember momentarily wondering if I should be a good music fan and be at Sonic Youth before deciding that I didn't care.

I bet they will be over. Announce a couple of shows, get everyone talking, that allows you up your price for playing other gigs.

Those fuckers will play a load of shows next summer. They must be near broke at this stage.

If you'd gone along you could have danced along to Kool Thing with the rest of us and gotten over this over-thinking about Sonic Youth nonsense.
