toxicity Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Electric Rainbow and Patiently Waiting were actually from a 2xCD version of Planet Of Ice that had those two songs, a remix, and a demo version of Ice Monster on the second disc. Oops, haha, those were the two I wrote out from memory. I fixed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I just found out a friend of mine did the artwork for this. She also did the art for Infinity Overhead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subplotofcrows Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 A little off topic here but is Ellen Page really spinning Rooms Of The House or am I just an idiot and this is Photoshopped?? Nah, Photoshopped. I love Ellen Page and she did a photoshoot with a record player and I wanted to have some fun. All La Dispute LPs are actually stacked on the bed. Also, thanks for the album breakdown of b sides. I'll definitely pick this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradedOnACurve Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Minus The Bear has the worst fucking fans ever. (that's not to say every fan is bad, but the crowds at their two most recent chicago shows have me not wanting to see them anymore). I'm with you on that. I've seen them the last two times they rolled into NYC (I got into them late) and the fans were awful. Everyone had to light up, many many bros, sad attempts at mosh pits, and a fight broke out at their last show. It was also at one of the worst venues in NYC. The band however was amazing and regardless how much I hate the crowd I have to see them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 Weird. Must be in certain cities. From what I recall seeing MtB in Boston for the HRP anniversary tour and the shitload of times various places in Florida, the crowds have been alright. Fans weren't out of control or acting like jabronis. Now Thrice on the other hand. Last couple of times I caught them, the idiots and unbearable fans were out in full force.

Rapidfiretollbooth Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Dammit they're playing in NYC the same night as Com Truise... Decisions, decisions, decisions.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchashorttime Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I don't think Mtb have had a decent crowd since before planet of ice. They are always good live, but the last 2 times I saw them in philly, people were rude as hell and cops waited outside to round up the visibly wrecked after the show. The Mtb I grew to love was one of drinking and dancing. A more lustful less stoned Mtb. That being said, I might go to NYC for old times sake.

michaelmanfredi Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 ive been to 8 or 9 shows since their OMNI tour (even the HRP show in atlanta) and have had no issues, besides one fight in ft. lauderdale, of anybody being a dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouLoveHisWife Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 best Minus the Bear show I've attended was in Boston at this small club on Lansdowne Street called Axis back in 2006, unfortunately it's no longer there because they tore it down to build a House of Blues. but, mewithoutYou opened and Thursday was the headliner and I think they were just about to release A City by the Light Divided. I've seen Minus the Bear a handful of times, but nothing compares to that show. definitely will be picking up a copy of this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I think the last time I saw them was the HRP tour in NYC. I remember two things about the people in attendance- everyone was smoking, but happy to share. And the female friend I was with couldn't go a full song without a dude getting all up in her business.

mcpherson123 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 The best MTB show I've been to was probably the first show I had been to in late 2008 at the tail end of the POI support and it was just phenomenal. I think they played all of my favorite songs and the performance was just killer. I got chills thinking about it right now. Probably due to a lot of other nostalgia associated with that time as well but that show was amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 That POI tour was insane. I caught a few of those shows. The first one I was asked to have the tour pressing of POI delivered to the band at the venue. That was fun lugging those heavy boxes. I already had a ticket for the show but the band graciously offered anyways to guest list me. Towards the end of their set the crowd was so out of control (and since the place was packed) I had to get out and hung out with the band's merch guy, Steven, and somehow I got roped into being assistant merch guy as there was a mob of people buying shit. It was a learning experience for sure. Hung out w/ the band afterwards and they indulged my inner cheesy fanboy by signing my tour copy of POI.

mitchard Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 The Beer Commercials anniversary show in Seattle last month was awesome. Tiny venue and it sounded great. Assuming they play the EP in its entirely for this tour as well, I might have to see them again in November. http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/minus-the-bear/2014/columbia-city-theatre-seattle-wa-63c1921b.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
