Title: Eugene, 7/7
Post by: deatheats on July 07, 2010, 10:50:07 AM
Anyone heading down to Eugene since there is no Portland show this year?
I'm not looking forward to John Henry's but hell, it's the Melvins.

Anyone have the setlist?  I recognized most from the first set plus a few from second... not too sure on all the names, though... seemed similar to other shows setlists I've seen, but again, totally not sure.  Any one keeping track?

Pics to be posted soon...

AMAZON was fucking amazing!  
And I take back what I said about John Henry's.  Great sound and the crowd was a pleasant surprise.

Did anyone notice the outdoor movies they were showing just outside the venue?  No wonder the show started so early.  
They must have had to listen to the Melvins' soundtrack for the first few minutes.

No specific Eugene poster this year, just the Tour posters on sale.

Ha!  Funny I even caught you on camera... :)

Yeah, seemed more packed on the floor compared to last year.  I guess that's good for Melvins.

No Portland show this year brought more people down to Eugene me thinks.

Early fuckin' show, too... I walked in at 7:45 or so, right as the Mighty M's were hittin' the stage.

That would have sucked to drive down from PDX to miss half the show...

Effing A. That is sweet audio accompaniment. Why can I keep watching the same band and hearing the song songs over and over again?
