from the ipecac news page:

Hey New York City!!!!!

thankyou!!!  I read that on another message board but I had no truth to it...


what's the deal with the live soundtrack thing??  is it melvins songs? or like the melvins playing the score to these films live???

a bit of both, it's the melvins playing their music and improvised snippets to accompany
the 'art' films of Cameron Jamie. They've done this a few times before, should be
wicked. Their live version of POTRE from the Paris Cameron Jamie show put
the recorded CD version to shame!

I will be there front and center chained to my seat for some noise and doom.

Anyone else?

www.symphonyspace.org

tickets are about 31.50 each with service charge, stil some great tickets left...

Perhaps the only US date before the BIG Melvins tour in the fall winter

Post by: guesswhatilikethemelvins on April 07, 2006, 11:01:35 AM
i'll be there... i hope. i'm trying to bring a couple friends of mine, bandmates. our schedules are hectic, though, so we're finding it hard to find time to go to the box office together so we can get seats next to each other and get our student discounts ($10 off).

but i think we're getting the tix on Sunday. I'm 22, and i've lived in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn my whole life. where are you?
Title: Re: Who is going to NYC May17th Date at symphony space?
Post by: Verbalmasturbation on April 07, 2006, 11:09:59 AM
That is a great idea you will save some money, but I think you only get a discount if you are a student member which means 15 for the membership plus another 15-20 for the ticket, correct me if im wrong? I am 29 and I grew up in Jersey but spent the end of my teens through age 24 in the Lower east side and east village.

I might be bringing a band mate but I am not sure, wish i was still a student. I am in Row J center just to let you know.

Post by: guesswhatilikethemelvins on April 07, 2006, 02:02:31 PM
fuck! so i have to be a symphony space student member... that would make sense.

this means i could've just purchased those Row D seats i saw online almost 2 weeks ago... damn.

i'm buying 5 tix right now. Row L. see you there.

well I actually would like to dress nice....imagine the whole crowd dressed all fancy like they were going to the symphony, I think that would be awesome.

and HEY I think it's a resonable question to ask, they have restaurants where they won't let you in if your're not wearing a suit jacket or a tucked in shit or something like that !!!

I saw the throat singers ot Tuva there many years ago. It might have been their first NY performance. their family sat right in front of me & my friend. they were all dressed in traditiional siberian garb. the place is real small & sounds great.

Hey Hey - Yeah - I've got 2 tickets row g or something.  I'm going by myself as of yet, so I'll have an available ticket for sale out front of the venue that night or for some lucky young vixen such as yourself burnt bride.  And - I'm not opposed to wearing my new black Donna Karran suit I bought for a job interview I failed miserably.  Employment is overrated.  Long live the melvins.
