this picture may not reflect how incredibly AWESOME sonic youth were last night at the independent. funny, i was flipping through this blog recently, since i've been posting more again on it, and saw the beck post that i made after seeing him last august at the independent, one of my favorite places to see music in SF. the intimacy of this 500 person club for these major performers is so incredibly seductive.
last night thurston moore shimmy'd out to an equipment case that was an extension of the stage during one song, and kim gordon was just RAWKING a gorgeous blue bass right in the faces of those in the front row. i was happily checking the show from upstairs. it was a stellar situation to walk into...knew about the gig, wanted to go, didn't get tix, forgot about the gig, then was reminded of it while at yoshi's, checking out "wild magnolia" from new orleans. yoshi's sf was cool, and i'm BEYOND excited to see everest there sept. 01. BEYOND!
i don't know the names of many sonic youth songs. but i WAS that typical fan that new the "hit" they saved for the middle encore, exprssway to yr skull. thx again to the people at another planet entertainment, and the kind folks at the indy. very grateful!
