Sadly, not going- just anticipating the show.

Melvins play first, 8pm
then Redd Kross, 9:15
then OFF! 10:30

They played first at 2pm at Bash15.  Was actually awesome because I knew I didn't have to be responsible for the the rest of the day after they got done.

Setlist as above but with a bit of Leeech at the end of WYHNYH.

Merch price list I saw:

Stag limited colored vinyl $125.00
Crystal Fairy 7" $40.00
High Desert Overdose 10" $50.00
Prick limited CD $35.00
Colossus limited CD $35.00

There were art prints of the limited covers as well, but I did not see the prices for them.
They started with 3 limited Houdini vinyls' left but someone ahead of me bought all three.

Mixed feelings about the merch prices: Glad they are charging Ebay rates so the band gets the cash, not so happy that I had to pay Ebay rates though...

That's not ebay rates, but retail (shoxop) rates.
Haze doubled prices in the past few years, due to ebay crazyness.

What limited houdini albums did you see, the mackie versions? 

By the way, that venue was horrible.  I didn't see the surprise 10$ parking coming...and no options to park for free.  But the worst was the swarms of aggresive security guards, I felt like i was at a prison.

Since the last time I was there to see the band in September 2015, it seems the security staff at the venue was doubled. Very aggressive pat down to get in. I didn't buy booze nor eat there, so I don't know if the upgrades they made over the last year were any good.

The limited Houdini I did not see, it was on the price list for $100.00. I got one of the Stag limited vinyl's and was very very happy about that since it was my absolute favorite Melvins album until the 2006-2012 4 man series of albums.

Very happy that the guys played first. Bailed right after Euthanasia and was in my car on the way home by 9:05 pm.  Seeing a band at 11:00 pm or so on a weeknight is a thing of the past for me due to work.

I have not used shoxop for a long time so unaware about the price increase, but good for them, I hate eBay flippers.

Oh, I also heard the end of the Melvins soundcheck while waiting in line to get in venue: Halo of Flies & Hag Me.

Nice, The believe they still had those available... I think they first started showing up at shows in summer during the prick release time frame.

Thankfully I was able to get both stoner which and Houdini recycle covers, for 100$ each at the shows.   my wallet will be thanking me for not having to buy them from you on eBay! I wonder how much those things are going to go for?

Hello I'm the fat guy that purchased those Melvins records,  not sure why I registered to say anything to you but since you hid behind your computer insulting me and my friend instead of coming up to me at the show and asking me in person why I got 3 copies I will explain, I had a friend who bought a copy and I got 2, I collect melvins stuff and have purchased from some people on this bored for inflated prices, I have seen the melvins close to 100 times, most people I know at the shows have been nice even Dale said hi to me once I was kind of like how do you know me he said your at a lot of our shows (maybe cause I'm so fat) thing I find funny is there were people buying 3 of everything and no comment on that. I didn't purchase stag or crystal fairy even though I could of flipped them for a lot more then what they were charging, not looking to argue but don't like what this one person is saying about me especially when it's not true (well the fat part is) on a final note I'm going to the New Years show and the sleep show feel free to come up to me instead of hiding behind your computer I'd be happy to show you my melvins collection from the past 20 years, I do believe you owe me an apology thanks

Don`t bother with that infant bullshit from Pinky, who is way over the line here and can fuck off.

He'll probably be at the upcoming Melvins shows.  PM me for details.

Pay no mind to his posts.

I agree - Pinky/ShitsnGiggles can fuck off. He/She gets off on berating other Melvins fans. Not sure why He/She and His/Her IP address are not just banned from the Melvins BBS. Has He/She ever offered anything useful here?

Jellybelly - I will be the fat guy right up in front at Pappy & Harriets during the Melvins and Redd Kross sets. I will see you there!!!!!! By the way, the Ribs at Pappy & Harriets fucking rule. I will be the fat guy eating those at about 6pm or so. Highly recommended.

For those that are going and have never been to Pappy & Harriets before, make sure to secure a spot close to the stage or you will not see shit.

Looking at the $35 for the Prick CD I assume it has a Mackie letterpress design? Can anybody confirm, or as pics?
The Haze Prick CD is still available from shoxop for $5...

She is the best illustrator in Melvins-relation, in a league of her own.
