The only merch on this stop are letterpress cds of Bride, Animal, and Fairy. Crystal Fairy AmRep Single. Honky single. Fairy vinyl letter press and they had one The Finkle Finger Of Fate on white vinyl
And literally only one XXL shirt
Hawthorne had quite a bit of merch. Usually snag a poster. Decided on a shirt this time, since they actually had Mediums.
I snagged the Crystal Fairy
12" single and Dales album
Sacrifice
Oven
Anaconda

Euthanasia

Lovely butterflies (drum intro)
The bit

And a few others I didn't recognize right off the bat. Steven sang one song. First time seeing them with a Steven and he's fucking great. Love his energy. Didn't stay for EODM. Never listened to them but there was no way they could even come close to matching The Melvins on any level
Good call on the Lovely Butterfly intro!!
Steve is singing Savior Machine, here's the original:

"Saviour Machine"
President Joe once had a dream
The world held his hand, gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine
They called it the Prayer, its answer was law
Its logic stopped war, gave them food
How they adored till it cried in its boredom
'Please don't believe in me, please disagree with me
Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now
or maybe a war, or I may kill you all
Don't let me stay, don't let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
I need you flying, and I'll show that dying
Is living beyond reason, sacred dimension of time
I perceive every sign, I can steal every mind
Don't let me stay, don't let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
I am very much looking forward to hearing their version of Saviour Machine.
This years set-list is anyway close to perfect for me!
Redd Kross is not opening currently on the US tour right?
They will be in Europe and I wonder if they will also play all of the Teen Babes album... (maybe excluding Saviour Machine...). Man, I am so excited for the Melvins / Redd Kross combo!
