hardwood floor Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 was at the D.C. show last night they sounded great. was a hell of a lot of fun. loved every minute of it that said ... on the way home i was thinking that as much as I love that lineup & those records, I think I prefer late-period GBV when it comes to live shows for two reasons -- first, those shows were always so unpredictable. you would get 10 songs in a row from 10 different bands or lineups -- Storm Vibrations, then Subspace Biogrpahies, Time Machines, Liar's Tale, Little Lines, Stifled Man Casino, Run Son Run, Pricks, Chasing Heather Crazy. I loved that about late-period GBV. The versatility was staggering. And then Gillard's musicianship really took GBV to another level there the last several years. They were such a musical band. And I also think last night was slightly too much of a nostalgia act for me. I just love hearing new stuff by any band I see mixed in with the old stuff. An evening of entirely old stuff was a little depressing. As much as I think Bob's recent stuff is very uneven, the Boston Spaceships shows were fantastic because the material was so new and vibrant. Found myself listening to 0 to 99 on the way home and totally digging it. I would have liked to have seen a few tracks that were from that era but not so right down the middle. I mean, I LOVE every one of the songs they did. But something off the beaten path would have been cool, either from Vampire (although Tobin did do Gleemer, which was amazing) or one of the early records ... imagine this bunch of guys doing Captain's Dead? or Navigating Flood Regions? Mammoth Cave? But it was a great show & great to see those guys on stage together after so long. And Sweet Apple ROCKED Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brianjeremy Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Yep, I am offically pumped about seeing them tomorrow night in Atlanta. I saw them on the Earthquake Glue Tour and it was a really great show. This will be my brothers fierst GBV show, so he's in for a real treat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As I said before, I would've liked a couple more tunes from Under the Bushes...and I thought there'd be more since they opened with Cut Out Witch, but it wasn't to be.

Those are the only three they did in Atlanta, too, unless they did a fourth encore after I left. I'm pretty sure they did play the intro to Cut Out Witch. Or maybe I'm delusional for hearing it. Maybe you were in a noisy part of the crowd and it was drowned out by crowd noise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brianjeremy Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 The show was great and I loved it. I too wanted more UTBUTS, especially Ironman Rally Song, but as you said, it just wasn't meant to be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody Girl Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Great show in Philly last night. Wish I'd gone to more than one show on the tour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hardwood floor Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Great show in Philly last night. Wish I'd gone to more than one show on the tour. was indeed mind-blowing i thought on a different level than the 9:30 club show a couple weeks ago one of the best rock shows i've ever seen this band is a fucking powerhouse and they just blast out hit after fucking hit closer you are. motor away. echoes myron. game of pricks. unleashed: large-hearted boy. my impression now. exit flagger. shocker in gloomtown. i am a scientist. tractor rape chain. smothered in hugs. one after another they just keep coming at you like a fucking bulldozer i still prefer gillard-era GBV for the sheer variety of stuff you got at the live shows, but this was just two hours of rock 'n' roll sledgehammer loved it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
