Detriot's a Friday night. 

[(the) flutter nuts]

Detriot's a Friday night. 

Don't tease me Brother Grim 

[Mount Ambulance]

missed Motown shows since  ???  Shit, last one I saw there was Bride tour I think? maybe the tour after that? Whenever the exact was it was a spell ago ... not quite moons, but at least a spell for sure. Think I'm gonna have to make this one tho ... Pinkus and the Steve ... damn!

Melvins are not playing Grumpy's and I have to wonder why?

[Helen83]

Melvins are super lazy when it comes to touring.

[glen]

all I know is if they overcrowd El Club in Detroit again and get everybody booted 3/4 through the show like last MELVINS go-round I'm going to be most displeased.

You don't have much luck with Detroit shows, you should probably just come to Grand Rapids 

[glen]

two things... no, three things.   


first thing:  GR is farther and a shittier drive.

second thing:  GR is a Thursday.

third thing:  GR shows are full of the hipsterest hipsters that ever hipstered.   there is something about the safety of the environment that I do not like.   give me a good old fashioned over crowded intimidating Detroit show any time.    dude... I was weaned on that shit.     going to Blondies on  8 mile at the ripe old age of 17..  I don't feel at home unless I'm surrounded by scary people and terrified to get from the car to the door.

the only bad:  no jozzy.

[))))((((]

I don't feel at home unless I'm surrounded by scary people

That's why you love it so here!

Nice ... Toronto show added May 16th! Sorry Chief. Happening at The VU ... never been there before I don't think ... looks pretty gaudy ... too bad it ain't at Lee's. Oh well it's still in TO. so I'll be there. Hopefully I'll still pull into Motown too come August.

  I get it.

It's an almost two hour drive (depending on traffic) to Detroit from where I am versus the 45 minute drive it takes me to get to Grand Rapids. I don't really even pay attention to the crowds when I go to shows so I can't really comment on that. I just want to see the Melvins without some dirty butt stinking up my personal space and then leave.
