Same set, different order. Boris to open. LGBYG and Revolve to close. He told the Dave Grohl story. Melvins' #1 fan was there and thankfully because of the intimate setting and lower volume we, as the crowd, were able to enjoy every subtle nuance of his appreciation for Buzz. It was like they were two lovers having a conversation across the room as all of the rest of us faded away...

My position has been usurped. I may not even be #2.

Awesome show. #1 fan was right behind me, making me crazy. Finally got a picture with Buzz after seeing the Melvins near 20 times. Picture turned out blurry and terrible. Good times!

Yeah that guy was a dufus.

I was right up front, shot some fotos and a few songs in HD video. I won't know what the sound quality will be like til I can take a look later (working now) but I'd like to think it turned out pretty ace.

Buzz killed it, obviously  :D Great show!

Curious on this as well.

Buzzo 10" (tri color only)
Buzzo shirt M-XXL
FANTOMAS sugar daddy
A Few of the clown singles from sausages
NYE 7"

But Rev Mike bought it all. Expect to see it on eBay this week.

It was a great show even in spite of the curious drunken affliction that people seem to have at quieter shows where they feel the space must be filled by whooping and hollering. They seem to be uncomfortable with such intimacy. As I said, the set was the same as in LA but in different order. LGBYG had a brief little intro that Buzz said Dale had reminded him of after the LA show that used to be a part of the song.

As for merch, there were the King Buzzo stamp shirts for $25. There will be the King card shirts later in tour. Tri color 10 inches for $35. The Fantomas split. Clown shirt bags. Tri colors of the last 3 clown singles (Roxy, Pop-o-pies, Kinks). Tri color and Haze NYE singles. Melvins/Helmet split, I think it was the Haze edition. 7 inches were $30. The tour posters were $20.

And Judy is right. I did buy all of it. But I am 'scoggin it. Fuck ebay.

Cool, shirts.

I expect a lot of records at the Austin show.

And I'm glad it's not at a bar now.

Great show, Buzz is coming back to Grumpy's after the Madison show and will play a special birthday free show, he said he'd be taking requests and would play the song if he knows how. I can't remember if he said it'd be on the 24th or 25th, his b-day is the 25th. Another non-midwest solo tour is already in the planning stages, next "melvins" record is pretty much done but won't be coming out for a while. The splatter 10"s will be on sale in Austin once the rest of the sleeves are obtained, only about 2/3 of the sleeve order was completed by obsolete in time for the grumpy's show so the rest will be stuffed when they reach austin. Tom had a couple spit it out's and shit sandwich's that he had squirreled away that he was going to sell at the rummage sale but I bought them ahead of time, lightened the load for the long voyage down south, better fuel economy etc.

KING BUZZO UNPLUGGED Revolve (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMWABuSm_OI#ws)

Two or three more, I think, but I may or may not bother posting the other footage I shot. I thought I was being clever avoiding beard man on the left, but decided now I wasn't really thinking straight- they were shot vertically, so I'll have to figure out how to rotate it without losing too much frame for youtube format for the others.

Anyway, once in a lifetime thing for me to record, because I knew it would be quiet (heh) and I would score a good spot.
So...I hope you enjoy.

I also recorded We Are Doomed, but I started breathing real heavy and it interfered with the audio

Have fun at the other gigs, you guys.

Agreed. I took the video of Boris. Sound is not nearly as good as your video. Then again it was on an iPhone off to the side of the stage. It was nice to be sitting but I regret not getting in front of the PA. Next time.
