I'll definately be going to the Jacksonville FL gig. Edge 17 is a brand new venue that I knew would get funky kiiiick ass gigs like this sooner than later.

I'm going to try to make it to the seattle show. It's a lot of bullshit to cross the border now, with the new law saying you need a passport. But it's worth it to see en and guenter play right?

I should mention that the Providence stop is relocated to New Haven, CT.... which is much better for me. So there.

Nope, but my buddy tells me they played Slick Idiot is a Drug Against War Weird side note, the SI Spamspace lists Pegasus as the Pittsburgh venue... last I heard Pegasus is a really pretentious gay club... well I mean, it's sort of mixed but still an unpleasant place, regardless.

I'll be seeing them tonight! I doubt the set will be much different than the last tour.

Last time I picked KMFDM over SI, they canceled their show in NYC. I got to see neither.

AlRight! If you've been on here a while ya know that I rarely review concerts especially these days...
I saw SI last night which was full of things that I did and things that I did not expect...
I expected the same set as in 2006 with Guenter on guitars and maybe a new song or two. Well I was right and right.
I didn't know that the female singer from the last tour has been replaced. I personally like the new one better
They started late due to working on a broken window which happened from most likely by the hands of someone frome one of Jacksonville's nicer trailer parks! En Esch went on stange pissed about it. After one song I ran to a liquor store and got them a bottle of Stoli vodka which En Esch didn't accept.
Some monitors & mics went out during the show. At one point a sound guy left a note that said "please do not move the monitors thx" En Esch put it on his forhead during a song. I got to sing some of the lyrics on a song, say misc things on the mic before a few songs and during one point I turned into the sound guy when he asked me if I could hear everything piece by piece.
Here is a copy of the apology email that I sent them...
Hello Slick Idiot Band,
I apologize for not warning you about The PIT in Jacksonville FL. It was originally a convenience store turned then into a venue. I went to it once when it first opened and it was horrid. The bands would play in the beer section of the old store behind a fence. People told me that things were fixed and I took their word for it...
I was the guy up front in the tank top. I wanted to get you guys a bottle of decent alcohol (if you drank) considering the event that happened previously with your van. The crowd was wasn't full of strong fans which was more of the case last time you were in town at Eclipse in 2006...
Thanks for the fun performance and doing a great job considering the circumstances.
Later Cody

I'm sorry you had a shitty venue. That's how I felt when I saw PIG at the Webster. Can't wait to see them live tho. Thanks for the update!

Nu KMFDM over Slick Idiot? I think you guys are crazy personally... How about Slick Idiot or Pig, now that would actually be a tough choice...
But why choose? Find some way to go to both. Do whatever it takes

Post by Zer0 on Sept 19, 2009 5:47:02 GMT -5
Yeah, like I said, I totally kicked myself when I made that decision. I think SI was playing at the Webster at the time and I was completely turned off over my last experience with that venue. I dunno.
But yeah, I had to choose because I was economically challenged at the time and they both were in the area within two weeks time.
I'm not going to see KMFDM this year because they hate Connecticut. Thanks to the Webster in Hartford. I'm not going all the way to NYC to see them. Now, PIG, I would go see... But not KMFDM.
But you're also right, two shows are better than one. Go to both.

It's not a question of SI over KMFDM, I've just got something scheduled for the day of the Slick Idiot show. Besides, I'm still nursing a school age crush on Sascha, plus the fact Lucia's reeeeally hot with that blue hair...

Dear Connecticut Venues, Why do you all suck so much? Every time I see a show locally, that band is highly likely never to return. Sincerely, The Zero.
That pretty much summarizes it. Apparently the venue I saw Slick at was small, had equipment failures (although, it still sounded better than the Webster), and advertised poorly. In fact, the local radio station said the show was in a totally different venue. They were supposed to go on at 10, and around 11, it appeared as if they weren't going to play... Certainly, not for 20 people.... I'm glad I was wrong.
Not only did they play, but they did so for an hour and a half! They rocked the house. Plain and simple. I also fell in love with their version of Leid und Elend.
Amazing. Just Amazing.
Also, the merch guy Wolf makes a great standup comedian during technical difficulties.
