Re: Word of Mouth Presents... MARK KOZELEK (Red House Painters/Sun Kil Moon, ALT, JUL

How was this is the end?
 
Re: Word of Mouth Presents... MARK KOZELEK (Red House Painters/Sun Kil Moon, ALT, JUL

it was hit & miss. mostly miss. he seemed like he was in the horrors.

some qoutes

" take that screwdriver out of you ear" - to a hecker who shouted for modest mouse
" It might look like I'm in a bad mood, but really, I'm in a good mood"
" It freakes me out when there's a gap in front of the stage"
" you all seem a little restless"

He also reckoned the promoter was trying to rip him off, then started slagging "the backpack" guys who always rob his setlists on European tours.

There was some musical highlights to be fair, he did a lovely MJ cover and I really enjoyed "void" but it was hard work in the end. He didn't seem like he wanted to be there, but ended up playing for nearly 2 hours. Also, someone should tell the bar staff to be a bit more discreet when disposing of empty bottles at quiet gigs.

I'd say he's much more fun with a full band behind him.

were you at the same gig? He said all that taking the piss. Totally.

I thought he was fantastic. And he was in great form.
 
Re: Word of Mouth Presents... MARK KOZELEK (Red House Painters/Sun Kil Moon, ALT, JUL

if that's him on great form I'd hate to endure an off colour gig.

I thought it was deadly and his banter was a laugh. Complete cock forest. Would have been a great night for any ladies to pick up single, depressed guys.

Really enjoyed this,wasn't as captivating as the last time I saw him play,but it was fucking beautiful in parts.
Hardly any women there alright,but the ones I did see were ridiculously attractive,I briefly entertained the idea that Kozelek,knowing there would be little in the way of visuals,handpicked them for our benefit,but I dunno if hes that sound.

having seen him on his own, and with a band i would say that its 350% better with a band. not that he was bad on his own when i saw him, its just that with the band its unbelievably good.
