Upcoming Kayo Dot concerts

[xfer]

sadly, I only found out about the 9/30 show after I had already scheduled to work until past midnight that night. weak!!!

 

[NAD]

I'll be in NYC this weekend and am seriously considering going to the 9/30 show, even though it may entail a 3 hour drive at 2am on a coast I've never been to before. Hmmm...

 

[xfer]

I just got off work for 9/30 so I'll be there, celebrating Toby's birthday in style!

It's pretty easy to get to Boston from NYC, and it might actually take you only three hours if you go at 2am. It's more like 3.5-4 normally.

 

[NAD]

*Toby's birthday
*Kayo Dot in their home turf
*shorter drive than normal

It seems I really should go to this show. Probably won't decide until after I arrive and absorb my surroundings.

 

[xfer]

The downside being that I've seen NO promotion for the show so I have no idea how anyone around here knows about it!

It will be "intimate".

 

[NAD]

The band could say "half our audience came from 2700 miles away!"

 

[xfer]

at the middle east show this dude flew up from North Carolina specifically to see Kayo Dot.

 

[Biddinger]

So on this tour, are we going to be hearing/seeing Choirs of the Eye played live in its entirety? That would be pretty nice...

 

[FalseTodd]

You'd actually want to look at our ugly mugs as we change tunings 4 times and perform over an hour of material?

thanks!

 

[inkybmistro]

that would be ultimate.

 

[NAD]

This whole time I thought 9/30 was a Friday, so I don't think I'll be able to go to this show. Shit.

cool, the stl show was added! the venue was noted in recent riverfronttimes.com (local alt weekly paper) Best of StL:


Best 3 a.m. Bar Best of St. Louis ® 2004:

The Rocket Bar

Address: 2001 Locust Street
St. Louis
314-588-0055
www.rocketbar.net

Just like bar patrons, all bars start to look alike after 1:30 a.m. The patrons become sexier and blurrier. The bars become smokier, more crowded and louder. It's the loud part that sets the Rocket Bar apart. While other bars are willing to let canned music serve as the soundtrack to late-night debauchery, the Rocket Bar uses its glorious jukebox. Watch as cross-eyed indie rockers argue over which My Bloody Valentine track to play while you down one last Pabst (well, okay, two more, but that's it, we swear). Where else are you going to hear Built to Spill or the Pixies at full volume while you mortar in the final brick of tomorrow's hangover?


last yr they won best rock club too. looking forward to seeing you guys.

 

[chupe666]

actually, now that i read that, it's not exactly the most appealing description.

 

[xfer]

aw, man, you guys get to meet Eric!

 

[chupe666]

the real prize will be the meeting of Cletus the Pharmaceutically Challenged Canine should the band seize the opportunity to stay at our extremely humble abode.

plenty of room for all, and free showers! well, one shower.

 

[avi]

showers are a buck apiece at my place

 

[xfer]

FYI avi's bathtub drain flushes, so don't bother taking care of business before you get in!

 

[chupe666]

showers are free, but the towels are extra.

 

[Autumn Falls]

Man. I had no idea you got a gig in Fort Worth. Best thing ever. I just called my roommate... so awesome.

Do you have any templates for posters I can post around campus to hype the show? Just let me know I'll do whatever.

BTW this is the venue I previously saw the Yeti play at along with Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.

Jesus, Nashville and Houston? I'll get to see you guys twice in one week! Rock.

Oh, and I'll guess I'll try to spread the word in Houston or somesuch.
