THE GORIES REUNION!

Night 2 of a 2 night run at the Empty Bottle.

Hollows seem a lot tighter as of late. Other people think so too. CoCoComa have been playing a lot lately, and never fail to beat the shit out of you until you're riled up. The Gories setlist was supposed pretty different from the night before, when White Mystery and Gentlemen John Battles opened. Sloppy, wild fun. it's The Gories!!!

CoCoComa open this clip.

LIGHTNING BOLT at the Logan Square Monument...

The Logan Square monument was ravaged by the Dan Deacon Emsemble (which included the fucking DOUBLE DAGGER drummer!) and LIGHTNING BOLT.

At this point, i had come from off the stage. sort of in a weird abyss. girls were in front of me, basically laying on the concrete. a line of dudes in back of me, keeping girls from getting smashed. I was pretty much curled up into a ball, keeping my legs up so that if 500 people all suddenly smashed me, my legs wouldn’t get broken. i wish youtubes encoding wouldn’t make it three times as dark as it really is, i got some really great videos from all different areas of the stage that i’m going to have to lighten up before putting more up. Enjoy

Caribou's backdrop Sunday at the Metro was perfect. John Schmersal from Enon was there to tuck you in. A haze stuck to the walls. Even drones can fly away :

...and play Chicago again.

Life is good....

Fugazi? Please?

Deerhunter live under a bridge in Chicago - "Revival" and "Helicopters"








They played powered by a generator. Where are my jeans? Why didn't you let me drink beer? We're under a BRIDGE. Whiskey was shared. New stuff was damn good. "Revival" is killer. The sound was really giving them problems, but they dealt with it well and it didn't hinder the show. Weird staff. Silly policies all around. Great gloomy afternoon for some new Deerhunter songs.
