Mono was lame
 
Boring as fuck.
I think it was the only gig ever that I left before the end.
I expected much more, but this was just a soulless copy of trademark Mogwai and GY!BE moves.

should have gone to see magik markers.

sonicl 11.27.2006 07:49 AM

Aww, sorry. I feel a bit guilty, having raved about them so much.

_slavo_ 11.27.2006 07:51 AM

no problem.

the bass player was really hot so it was worth going.

I had a wonderful time the whole weekend in Prague, the gig was just a marginal issue in this matter. So, I'm not that dissapointed after all.

jon boy 11.27.2006 07:55 AM

yes prague is a lot of fun so thats the main thing. fun.

Thats too bad, I really liked there new album, but I can see how the performance could be lack-luster.

I think it's just a matter of taste. I don't find the albums any exciting either.

RdTv 11.27.2006 08:49 AM

Good point.

sonicl 11.27.2006 08:57 AM

Visually they don't perform, I'll agree there. When I've seen them, It's been the sound just washing over me that I've loved.

_slavo_ 11.27.2006 09:09 AM

I don't know, I was just pissed that it was the same chords, the same song structure, the same guitar effects in eeeevery single song, one after the other one. The sound was washing over me yesterday too, it was just a very tiring wash.

Sorry mate,
i didn't mean that.

But if you expect something as thrilling as back then with A Silver Mount Zion, forget it. This is second league.

A Thousand Threads 11.27.2006 11:08 AM

mhm..
ok, i´m not awaiting "too" much. But if they are really not that great it wont matter because i´ll see Bardo Pond and Sonic Youth the day before the mono show.

lucyrulesok 11.27.2006 11:09 AM

aw,sorry for bigging them up so much then....

A Thousand Threads 11.27.2006 11:55 AM

i know
but don´t worry, i feel guilty

_slavo_ 11.27.2006 11:56 AM

warum denn?

A Thousand Threads 11.27.2006 11:58 AM

Weil nur ich (und ein paar 100 andere) in den Genuss von Bardo Pond komme.

if you´re able to translate,
your German isn´t that bad.

ich konnte es uberzetzen,
trotzdem verstehe ich nicht...warum nur Du und ein paar 100 andere?

A Thousand Threads 11.27.2006 12:16 PM

naja
die, die halt aufs Konzert gehen.
Kenne mittlerweile einige Menschen die mich wirklich beneiden.

deshalb fühle ich mich "schuldig", noch dazu weil ich die Karten geschenkt bekommen habe
haha

well, this is a generic rule : you like the albums, you'll like them live. you don't like the albums : DON'T GO TO THEIR GIGS ;)

I agree i saw them i believe live earlier this year? not really having heard too much of their albums but because of how my friends hyped them up and thinking that it be something i like (which is WRONG) they are very boring and what makes it worse is that i also find them also to be abit of a ripoff of some of the most boring rock bands you already mentioned, Mogwai and G!YBE both bands i cannot really listen too.
