hello everyone, now that i have time i thought i'd add onto the recently posts about godspeed you black emperor! well i saw them on fri. at Maxwells and it was just as i hoped. incredible. Will Oldham opend up with Marquis de Tren who were in very fine form. Is it just me or is Jim White one of the greatest drummers ever? I actually saw him at this same venue about three years ago backing up Chan Marshall aka Catpower... but anyway. sine Maxwells only holds maximum 200 people, and the stage it really low GYBE! asked everyone to sit down on the floor during their set so everyone could see. It so wonderful to see this mass of people curled up and nodding watching this amazing show. So it was almost totally dark with only the slides projecting over the band. Efrim and David were rocking and stomping in their chairs, and everyone was just in awe. I had to hold back the tears during the cresendo or "lift your skinny fist" it was just so powerful, so fucking triumphant. everyone should go out of their way to see this band. they are more than worth your time, and attention. as for B+S content: the drummer of Essex Green was at the show. Jeff from the Essex Green is also in Ladybug Transistor, and the Ladybug Transistor played the Bowlie Weekender. --- andrew - oh! if you can name the band that blessed the world with the 3 album godspeed series (and title of my post) well then... i'm very proud of you and have good karma comming your way. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
