Title: Athens Georgia! 40 Watt 06.14.0210
Post by: MrLuck87 on June 09, 2010, 11:26:14 PM
I just bought my ticket.  Better late than never right?  Is anyone else going?  I'll probably be wearing my "Jesus Lizard - Rock" T Shirt if you bump into me.

And here I was thinking that I'm the only one driving to Athens...  because there were no Snivlem boarders in the area than last time I went there.
Last time I cracked my head open @ the skatepark before the show. Still made it to the show. 4 stitches. Hopefully this go around will be without incident.

I'll probably be wearing whatever the fuck I put on that morning. I take my t shirts one day at a time.

Any chance someone can pick me up a poster at this show? I would be able to PayPal the money before hand.

Was just looking at the 40 watt's website. Isis closes the show, meaning Melvins play 2nd. I'm betting on a 45 minute set.

Well, that's really disappointing. Isis should not upstage Melvins.

That will be very disappointing indeed but at least Bonnaroo's set didn't leave out the songs I was really wanting to hear.

I love both bands but come on, I can't even picture Isis thinking that this is a good idea.  I also find it hard to believe that they have more fans.

Yeah. I guess maybe because it's their "farewell" tour that they're given the spotlight. Sure sucks, though I am excited to see them.

Driving in from Atlanta with my buddy, should be a great show.

i will be interested to see what happens with them playing, seems to be the same situation as the second boston show

Post by: gesundheit on June 14, 2010, 11:25:56 AM
Melvins have a lot of respect for Isis. And Isis have a huge amount of loyal fans...this isn't Down we're talking about here. Isis has some very quality material. Our standards are set to a certain level because of Melvins, so it's hard for us to get "into" the show when we know we could be hearing more Melvins..

Title: Re: Athens Georgia!
Post by: Sloan Simpson on June 15, 2010, 01:33:19 PM
Show was about 67 minutes.  Here's what I came up with from the tape:

Melvins - 6/14/10
40 Watt Club - Athens, GA

01) Sacrifice
02) The Civilized Worm
03) Black Stooges
04) Pig House
05) Electric Flower
06) Anaconda
07) Black Bock
08) The Kicking Machine
09) Billy Fish
10) The Water Glass
11) Evil New War God
12) Amazon
13) The Talking Horse
14) Hung Bunny
15) Roman Bird Dog

a buddy says they played a little of Lovely Butterfly but I couldn't find it.  I'll post a download link in the next day or two.
Title: Re: Athens Georgia!
Post by: MrLuck87 on June 15, 2010, 01:59:50 PM
Freaking awesome!  Jared is really an underrated bassist.  I think his playing really stood out a bit more than usual.  I was happy that The Melvins played for a little over an hour instead of 45min.  I was getting worried when they played The Talking Horse and it looked like they were about to finish.  But then they went into Hung Bunny/Roman Bird Dog and that was amazing!  Buzz also mentioned that it was sad to see Isis go during the Anaconda intro.  This was probably the best I've ever seen them play and I loved hearing the new material live. 

After the Melvins finished I felt really indifferent about seeing Isis.  I really like them and even wanted to see a show of them headlining last year but couldn't make it.  It's just that after The Melvins played I had already felt like I had seen the show.  After Isis came on I finally remembered that I do actually like them.  They were much heavier live and surprisingly energetic.  I'm not the biggest fan so I couldn't tell you the setlist but I do remember them playing In Fiction and the encore was the first song from Oceanic.  Their setlist was about as long as The Melvins but I think they played a little bit longer.  Of course if you already hate Isis I doubt their show will change your mind.  In the end I actually didn't mind having The Melvins play a slightly shorter set so that I could see another band I really like for the first, and probably last, time.

Dale and Coady played the Electroretard drum intro while Buzz and Jared appeared to be tuning.  I think it was about two thirds intro the show.  I'm really looking forward to the recording!

I'm still pretty worn out from the show so my writing is a bit off.  I meant the Lovely Butterfly intro from Electroretard, not Honky, and it was the same thing they did at bonnaroo.

Oh I also brought a friend who just started to get into them and he was blown away as well.  He wasn't familiar with Isis but he really likes Pelican so he enjoyed Isis as well.

Is that what he used?  I was expecting it to sound like a tape recorder in someone's pocket but it sounded nearly as good as the bonnaroo set.  I guess I'm out of touch with the bootleg world.
