voltagedrop Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Seeing them tomorrow in NYC and already disappointed the current setlists are considerably shorter than last year's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait. Despite the short set length (about 1h15m), it was still great. Finally got to cross them off the list after 17 years. No records or any other kind of music for sale, just clothing and I think stickers? Brought my OG copies of De-Loused and Frances and they got beer spilled on them, so that sucked. Got Cedric and Omar to sign them afterwards, so that kind of made up for it. They're not in perfect condition, but at least now they have character. Seeing them tomorrow and Wednesday as well!

My fault for being dumb, but that's the way it goes sometimes. I look at them now and can still smell the beer and the stains and I'm alright with that. It bothered me for about a minute, then I realized that not everything has to be perfect to be enjoyable (ask anyone who bought Mondo's release of Fight Club). Probably would never sell them anyway, so not too concerned about the decreased resale value or whatever. Cedric and Omar were nice and seemed genuinely pleased to sign them. At the end of the day (it was below freezing and I waited almost two hours), them taking the time to do that is what I'm gonna remember most. Rock and roll I guess!

Waited around inside the venue or out back? I've been trying to get Omar to sign my Frances for a good while now, taking it to Bosnian rainbows shows, orlg, antemasque, no dice...

Froze my balls off waiting a couple hours behind the venue near the tour bus. Omar was literally the final one to leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong but I think I got the idea from someone on VC. Regardless I stand by it because it's saved some records from getting fucked in the pit.

His is the only one I'm missing as far as what's credited on the album as being "The Mars Volta" (aside from ikey which sadly will never happen...)

And a drawstring is small and thin so it's pretty different than having an enormous backpack in the pit. I've seen other adults do it too, quit singling me out for my age, it's becoming tired.

Good luck, it seems like a crapshoot on when he will do it. Last night in Boston he just walked straight from the venue to the bus acknowledging the people waiting but without stopping.

throwgncpr Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 The song is better than the other track, but I'm not into this mix at all. The vocals are way loud in the mix, and there is barely any bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
