Last time they came here was when they opened for Down in 2009. It would be nice to see them do a residency or even just a regular set down here, but I am about ready to give up hoping.
Maybe if this state weren't 95% Cuban and Puerto Ricans from New York that listen to shitty music, good bands would want to play here. No offense to Cubans and Puerto Ricans from New York that
might have good taste in music.
Man up princesses. Most of us in the Southern Hemisphere only get a chance once or twice in a decade.
As a Cuban/Puerto Rican from New York, I would like to say I do not take offense to your comment. I can't speak for everyone though.

Exactly! ...You dudes are just spoilt! :lol:
Can you buy kangaroos down there? If I had a pet kangaroo, they'd carry my beers for me.
No, but I can see a wild one right now as I'm looking at my window and typing this. No shit.

that's kinda odd, as Toronto generally gets a ton of touring bands...i can think of plenty of bands that have skipped Boston and played Toronto.

As a Cuban from Florida, I would like to say he's right, except that he forgot to include all the white rednecks who dwell in the hinterlands.
A friend of mine from back in Indiana just posted on his Facbook that Melvins are playing with Municipal Waste in Munster, IN., which I find hard to believe they would play in a little place like that and not in Indianapolis.
I am sure the Melvins will be playing all kinds of oddball locations on the 51 day States tour. Remember - they only have to play in the state, not the biggest city in the state.
They should play Albany, NY.. It's so close to so many borders of other states. In less than an hour you can be in Vermont, or Massachusetts.. In a few hours you can be in Connecticut or Pennsylvania. Nicely centralized :D
These might turn out to be be psychological / physiological states they're playing in:
1. Happy
2. Rude
3. Scared
4. Drunk
5. On heat
6. etc.

Yep, they're playing the 3 Floyds 15th Anniversary party along with Young Widows and Municipal Waste (and I think someone who posted here). I'll be there!

Awesome! Wear those preposterous shoes.
Damn, that Primavera Festival in Espa
It'd be nice if one of you losers would start dishing out some 50 states/50 days tourdates.
was I a bit harsh with the "losers" comment? apologies, I was just trying to inspire.
Trevor Dunn told me it would be in September 2012 for the 51 states (they are doing D.C. as well) tour.
They should play in my back yard for a bonfire :lol:. I'm halfway between Buffalo & Rochester NY.

oh yeah ,we wish
exit in is already hinting the return of the melvins to nashville. but talking the wifey into letting me go will be daunting, and possibly suicidal.
I said it before and I say it again: We need a decent south american tour and by decent I mean "more dates in more countries" and by "more countries" I mean in CHILE, damn it!!

The "not knowing" right now is killing me :lol:. Hope there's a Buffalo or Rochester date on the schedule, last stop here was '09. I'd settle with Cleveland too. When was the last time they played Syracuse. Saw Clutch/C.O.C. a few weeks ago there at The Westcott Theater. Would be a perfect venue for Melvins. I hope this isn't just a dozen-date "big city" tour. We'll see.
the exit in here posted ramblings and a melvins vid promising new info on upcoming shows. monday. :x

Detroit - Chicago - cheap flight
Chicago - De Kalb - bus
No?
Going to Racine to hangout with my brother and hitting the Milwaukee show. I am not going to be fucked out of seeing the Melvins two years in a row.
chicago... hhmm...
train ride is less than $50.
all well and good.
too bad the taxi ride from there is $100.
and the hotel is $200.
and the food is $150.
and the booze is.. $200.
money (or a lack of it) pisses me off.

hey.. thats not funny.
glad to see theyre not at the double door this tour but ive read some bad reveiws about ottos in dekalb.wish they would play at reggies again.
Fuck gotta catch a Dekalb show, it's too weird. It'll be my midwest heavy week. Gliead Media fest in Oshkosh Apr 28th and 29th (Thou, Hell, False, Ash Borer, The Body, Fell Voices, Loss, ect.), Melvins in Milwaukee, then Melvins in Dekalb. I drove home to Rockford a few years ago just to go to the Sunn/Eagle Twin/Ascend show in Dekalb a few years back. It was awesome.

I'm a big tipper.
Well that sucks the big one. Nothing in upstate/western NY, even Cleveland got shafted. Closest is a 6 hr drive to West Chester PA(suburb of Philly). It is on a Saturday night, and I could do it, but I don't see myself being that motivated :lol: even though I have yet to see Unsane.
Fuck yeah Milwaukee show! And Turner Hall is a great venue, seen numerous great bands there (High on Fire, Secret Chiefs 3, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum).
since they never come up here i was planing on several road trips (anything around 4hrs from the southern ontario boarder) but now i cant even do that!!! very pissed especially since i just passed up front row seats to see jane's addiction and ga tix for megadeth with motorhead to go to some of these shows, not happy at all
Zero shows in the Great Pacific Northwest? That's seriously fucked and very surprising. Been a long time since they skipped Seattle, Portland and Vancouver entirely on a tour.
Boo hoo hoo.
don't feel bad detroiters, i have them here for the first time in a few years and there's no fucking way the wifey will take a day off so she can watch the kids.

Hire a babysitter? The show is over 3 months away. I was actually considering going to the Nashville show too since it's only a 4 hour drive for me and my semester would have
just ended. I'm still on the fence though.

Just throw a couple of juice boxes and crackers on the floor...I'm sure they'll be fine.
Or lock them in the bathroom, I don't know. If your wifey divorces you over this, sounds like you'd be winning.
(No offense)

I hear ya. But give it time. I wouldn't be surprised to see some show's added.
How old are your kids?
If it's their very first show, all the better.

yum.
I would take em but it's at a bar. Only one person is remotely willing to watch my brats, and they are wish washy at best. And then there's the wifey, who flies apart at the seams in regards to particular women who frequent said shows.

Drive or fly. Simple as that and the Melvins are yours. Or move to California like I did. I get to see way more Melvins shows here than when I lived in Seattle.

thats what i'm planning on doing before moving out of the country. either the northeast or west coast. trying to talk the wifey into moving to portland, or. hang with hanzy and try to start a band with my old guitarist who relocated there.
Anyone here planning on seeing the NYC show?
I just checked the website for the Social in Orlando and no Melvins show listed, nothing listed on that day. Hopefully they are just slow in updating. [-o<

whens the amex cardholder presale for nyc end?
Sorry, I'm at work, bored and over thinking things.
Two skips in a row makes me think something happened here, and they're never coming back :(
It's happened with other musicians. It's not so much the city---it's the venues and bad managment
I feel so robbed
I'm going to want a single if someone is feeling nice enough to grab one for me.....

well New york New york is only like a 12 hour drive....heh...like I said I got you covered for :toke:
we COULD still go technically, it's just gonna be a HUGE drive, at that point it would be better to catch like 3 shows on the tour at least...

nah.
every MELVINS show I've been to in Detroit has been packed. so it isn't a sales issue. I just think its a convienance issue.
when you're working with 4 weeks, period, driving up into Michigan and than back out again is slightly time-consuming.
believe me, I'm as pissed as you. but I believe in the 50 states/50 days tour. our time will come. and there will be a sweet sweet reunion (thats YOU and ME I'm talking about :wink:)
Milwaukee tix purchased! Maybe see you there jozzy?

I sure hope you guys are right. I'm not denying the fact that the shows have been packed, but I do know some Detroit venues are notorious for bad management. They did the stick, then smalls, then...Mount Clemens? That was weird, and unexpected, don't you think? First and only time I've ever been to the Emerald.
The Trevor Dunn/Lite tour is 50 states in 50 days, no? SO it's inevitable to skip. See you there! :wink:
51 dates in 51 dates with DC included.
51 consecutive days? :-k
That is what Trevor Dunn himself told me during a conversation at a jazz gig he was doing in LA about a month and a half ago. 51 straight days. It was originally going to be 50 and then they decided to add Washington DC. The only time they are flying is Hawaii and Alaska. The rest of the time they are driving. They are also going to document bring along someone to film the tour. He said Buzz came up with the idea when they were doing the Melvins Lite tour one night and the next day he called their booking guy and said "do it". He wanted to get the ball rolling before anyone could "change their minds".

I'll have to see where I am and what everyone else wants to do but let me know where you guys want to meet when the show rolls around.
They should have a competition to see who can come up with a tour itinerary to cover gigs at 51 states in 51 days WITH THE LEAST MILEAGE TRAVELLED. The one with least mileage wins a Melvins ticket and a map.
Has the show in Orlando on April 23rd been changed or cancelled? I see tix on Ticketmaster for the show in Gainesville the next day but not Orlando.

This should be known hence fourth as THE HARD AS FUCK TOUR!

I want total coverage of this, your grandchildren will revell.

but the tour would be cut short.
Quote from: Chief Ten Beers on January 15, 2012, 02:20:09 PM
The "not knowing" right now is killing me :lol:. Hope there's a Buffalo or Rochester date on the schedule, last stop here was '09. I'd settle with Cleveland too. When was the last time they played Syracuse. Saw Clutch/C.O.C. a few weeks ago there at The Westcott Theater. Would be a perfect venue for Melvins. I hope this isn't just a dozen-date "big city" tour. We'll see.
The last time the Melvins played Syracuse was when they played the Fairgrounds as part of Lollapalooza in 1996.
The Westcott Theater is fairly new. I have suggested to the owners to book the Melvins. But they usually book college/hippie oriented stuff. Who knows. Maybe this fall we will get lucky.
I wanted to go to the NYC show but the Mrs and I are expecting a lil one right around the sametime.

Yeah
almost. The prophecy states that upon the evening of 21st Dec 2012 Buzz and Dale have a catastrophic fall out and the Melvins are no more. It was the run of that many gigs that was the final nail in the coffin.

jules you might have a full flat when the melvins are in brighton,
im thinking i might come down for that, and im guessing im not the only one
im actually annoyed this is announced days after i book the atp ticket , trust me to find a negative in this,
anyway ill just have too see them twice,
if unsane are supporting thats gonna be amazing.
You might all have to sleep standing up but you're all welcome. Unles you snore.
ive had an atp and a night in a hostel in germany ruined by a snorer,
i dont ever want to repeat such a terrible experience.

The murder of snorers (after a warning) should not be an imprisonable offence.
i always pictured you as a snorer actually jules,

Snoring is actually linked with being overweight. Henceforth Jules may not snore but its a sure deal that 3/4 of Melvins do! :o

What about nose whistling, is that a problem?
Only if it keeps me awake :D
yeah!! what about when you're snoring so loud you actually wake yourself up? and for a split second you think "what the hell is that awful sound?" then you realize its you.
not that that's ever happened to me. 8-[
speaking of MELVINS and snoring... is the Buzz snoring on PRIG authentic? answer me that if you're so damned smart.

Looking at the new dates that have been added for Sleep I doubt it as well. I'm just hoping for the impossible to come true and that there's going to be more than just a London show in the UK by Sleep!

if you look at the dates from sleep they pretty much only play the countries capital city. but who knows??

Im gonna take a wild guess here and say there will be. There's still the 7th-13th and 21st-24th open in the tour schedule. Plus looking at the itinerary so far they seem to be hopping around alot. For example there's two dates in Germany not played back to back so i'd imagine that somewhere in there another uk show is quite possibly set to appear.
Got my ticket. :D
Somebody posting as the promoter of the these dates on another forum was saying that Unsane and the Bis will be touring together later on in the year as opposed to supporting on this tour.

Big Business are playing Hellfest in France june 16th, so it's definitely possible.. let's hope so, it's been awhile since we have seen big biz opening for Melvins
Manchester date is a half ten curfew.

Probably means only one or no supports like last time.
BIG BUSINESS are not playing ATP.
hope i'm wrong on this but i don't see bb doing too much touring with the melvins like they used to do
true.
what I am hearing is that BIZ is planning their own midsized US tour within the year.
I hope they're still touring together. :shock:
They seem to get along well.
Got my tickets in the mail today.

Watching Dale and Coady drum in unity is just about they greatest thing me eyes and me ears have ever seen. They're all in tip-top shape and I'm in no hurry to see a new line-up.
That's another thing that makes FREAK PUKE so great. Two line-ups. Two albums. (well, one EP, one album if you're going to be a jerk about it) Melvins LITE. Melvins HEAVY. LOTS of VARIETY.
I can hardly wait for them to announce that lite tour. You guys are making me real jealous >_<

Still need to find out how to get tickets :?
I hope they're going to visit holland another time this year
any idea about the line up? is it a freak puke tour?
So, this was planned last year - and nobody should care but I found it funny regardless - Turns out I'm going to US for two weeks at the end of May - the first time I've been over there in a decade.
Anyway, the day before I arrive - Melvins wrap up their USA tour and are starting one in Europe where I just came from....

That is awesome news for Melvins fans!!
Imagine if it went like this...........
"Never Ones To Let Our Brothers Down! Vinny will be filling in for Dale & Coady from the Melvins while they recover from being totally gay. Get well soon brothers! Melvins/ Unsane tour starts tonight In San Jose! See you there"
after the first show of the Melvins/Unsane tour Coady said he was a bit nervous to play the Unsane set but all went well. i wonder if he is going to be Unsane drummer for the whole European tour with Big Biz too, mmmh
This could be amazing! I hope they are still filling in when they get to NYC..
Anyone here at the show last night?
so the melvins and crew are riding in three scions and one chevy van for the gear. how many total people are in the band(s) and crew. at least 11? pretty crazy they can all pack in there.
MELVINS TOMORROW NIGHT IN ORLANDO!!!!!!!!!!!! =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ :toke: :toke: :toke: :toke: :toke:
Again if anyone going to one of these shows could get me a letterpress The Bulls & The Bees cd, would be greatly appreciated , i can also toss some money for some beers and whatnot, pm me please
Looking forward to the Webster show at the end of the month. May not have time to hit any European dates, but hopefully vacation will rear its dreary head soon.

rest easy. the chips will fall.
+ 1 = 51 for D.C.
But what will the tour be called? 50 states in 50 days was so catchy. Now it's "50 states plus Washington DC in 51 or however many days we feel like tour". Actually, on second thought, that works just fine.

I'm going to see them in Winnipeg. :D
On my way back from an amazing Melvins show in Orlando! Set was great! Got 3 shirts, one Gluey Porch Treatments letterpress and 2 Bulls and Bees letterpress also(one for flutternuts). First time I've ever spent more than $100 at any show, but I don't mind since it's Melvins.
what's this about 50 states now?

HAH, OPERA HOUSE AGAIN...
This time make sure to break the arm off the Thermostat untill human effluence is dripping from the walls and ceilings.. keep us standing there for 2 hours, MAKE no announcment that the opener hasn't made it to the show...so we can't just put the Melvins on stage right away because people still haven't shown up to make the show..make us stand 5 hours this time, fuck, I'll go 3 days without food, water, or Encouragement just to see the melvins farting on a snare-drum. :( you know it's true.
The way this venue gets run..is enough to make you weep.
But hey, If the boys don't care, Then I'm fine to slug it out at this place.
I just wish I didn't have to give any of my hard earned dollars to any of the venue.
I'll see you there. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
See you there Blewis :D Gonna be the show of the year for sure. It doesn't seem like 4 yrs since they last played there. I think it's in the main hall this time, not the club side.
Something tells me there won't be any merch on this run though. Buzz has stated that when they tour Canada, they leave the merch behind because they get taxed to death on the stuff. I doubt they would bother to bring anything to Rochester for one night, and to link up with the merch again in two weeks. I hope I'm wrong though.

the merch thing was true last time but they really only did like one show in Ontario and one in Quebec , this time around they have quite a few shows up here so it might be worth it for them to bring it, plus the tour being that far away with a new album i'm sure there will be all sorts of crazy shit they will have out for that tour, i'm just really trying to be positive!!!

I can't wait!
I'll be bummed if they don't bring any merch, but a show I dont have to travel over 4 hrs to attend? Fair enough trade-off.
I'll be at the Calgary/Edmonton shows for sure, hopefully Saskatoon as well. They probably will have Merch this tour as it is a cross Canadian tour like the 2 by 4 tour of 2000 where they had a bit of stuff. After 12 years they better bring me some goodies, as in calgary for sled Island in 2010 they brought nada. SO FUCKING PUMPED!
So the phone rings, and It's my melvins buddy Sean.
I didn't even let him speak a word before I was like, "yeah, June 5"
LOL!!! he was like whoah!!! how did you know? :lol:
We might catch them In london and a few other spots besides montreal.
WELL I'M TICKLED!!! MMMMMUUUHH----MELVINSSSSAAHH!!!
anyone wana get down n plan some Road trip action, seriously save a buck or two on gas an accomodations etc...

alrighty. my confusion is i never actually saw an announcement for the full 50 tour (not that i dont believe you), so im just confused. can a dummy get a link? where are these tour dates leaking out from? (i wish the Melvins website wasnt so shitty, can a SNIVLEM get on a mailing list man?!)
and most importantly when and where are they playing in CT?
looks like im going to catch my second ever Melvins show!
thanks.

They better squeeze a Seattle show in on 16th.
This is the bio for the Melvins that Cascade Tickets has up for this July's show in Portland. It might be time to update :lol:
It hasn't been a year since the last bona fide Melvins album but nonetheless, slated for release is yet another album... However, this here new one is actually a RE-release of the classic Melvins record "10 songs". Of course the NEW one has a NEW super deluxe cover and has been expanded to 26 songs. That's 16 more than the original! The record even includes a secret recording of one of their hometown buddies out of his mind on Angel Dust. This added historical window should fully explain their origin and current message in a way never before captured on record. Even if this reissue is 16 years old you can rest assured this record is up to date! If you get this record you can know there is nothin' or nobody ahead of you. Nobody knows nothin' that you don't know. All the cards are on the table friends and that's a fact!
Dang! It's been damn near 20 years since these Melvins started and they still have yet to find the common decency to die or break up. The core-band of King Buzzo and Dale remains intact and they've had the same bass player since 1998! Hailing from the Minneapolis Cows is pioneering slide bass pervert Kevin "Rutmanis". The Melvins proclaim this lineup the definitive whatever you want to call it of whatever it is they think they do. Nothing should be denied them forever more.
Looks like Retox is opening for the Melvins Lite show in Portland.

I'm thinking about Hamilton, Rochester definitely. Could do it, it's a Saturday night. Cool low-key town, easy to find your way around, saw Nomeansno there this past October.
The thing is w/ The Melvins, you're gonna get the exact same setlist every night. I've seen them do it when they played Buffalo/Rochester back to back nights in '08, but those were both so close to home it was worth it.
finally, a vancouver show! looks like ontario is getting a nice tour.
I might go to the bellingham one as well/.

I'm still convinced Melvins will sneak in a Scottish date after Manchester on 30th May. In Edinburgh......or Glasgow if needs be.
It's possible. They might finish with Bristol or Cardiff again as Bristol's where they keep their equipment. I'd love to see them on the Thekla. Here's hoping.....
Both would be nice, i'm still getting over missing out on tickets for that tiny Bristol show.
Is there any word on if the UK dates will be the four-peice or with Trevor?
I feel like I can't lose either way, if its the four then I should get to see them do Hung Bunny/Roman Dog Bird and Youth Of America for the first time, if its lite then I get to see an awesome and unique show.

Wrong, both will be awesome. I guess it's the 4 piece, Unsane/Big Business wil do a european tour a few days after these UK shows
winnipeg!! finally... i think it's been 12 years. not that driving down to minneapolis isn't a good time. minus the usual search at the border.
Got my Rochester ticket last night. Record Archive has 'em - $17+ $2.50 surcharge. Ticket says it's at the Club side where they played in '08. Cool, more intimate in there. Also of note, at Ipecac's site they show Retox opening all the Lite dates that are posted.
anybody going to Wisconsin or Chicago?
I'm going to the Milwaukee show tomorrow, someone else here is going too, Jozzy I believe?
Guess this was on the Melvins twitter page a week ago (don't know if it still applies or not, or if it was already posted):
Scion A/V Metal Want FREE tickets to see Melvins in your city? Tweet

What's the story with Unsane's drummer? Is he doing ok?
I was excited for a moment...until I decided to cross-check the dates with the Ipecac and Magic Stick site.... Melvins are not on the bill for the Detroit date.
I really think it is time to move to another state. I officially hate this place.

Even w/ Sgt. Poopypant's Pizza right there, Magic Stick still isn't as good a venue as Smalls. But really it should be at St. Andrew's.
Are Melvins even playing this date? Says select only. I know the 07/03 - 07/18 shows are Melvins shows ... how many of the others? Says July 01 Retox in Brooklyn. Though Melvins are in Rochester that night and Detroit is only 6 days before that, so ...

But I agree that St Andrews would be the place to go....

I know, I know... I'm just getting anxious. If only you saw my excitement when I first saw that poster .....
yeah, I saw that retox date listed at MAGIC STICK about a week ago and got a little over-stimulated myself. knowing that retox is supposedly opening for MELVINS LITE. but reality grabbed me by the banana rather quickly.
but I still believe. I also believe that the opening act will be even better and more interesting than retox. no dis to retox, but suggestions have been flown around. VERY interesting suggestions.
september!! where are you??!?!?!
What I'm wondering is who's opening for Melvins Lite 7/1 in Rochester?. Retox is in NYC that night. I hope the Melvins bring someone they want to have open, but I'm guessing local support. Sulaco(Eric Burke from Brutal Truth's other band) would be awesome, or else Psyopus if they're not out on the road.
7/16 - Victoria, BC Cananda @ 9one9 Club
9/2 - Sacramento, CA @ Ace of Spades
9/7 - Portland, OR @ Hawthorne Theater
