the POD tour brought us hog leg, let god be your gardner, its shoved, etc.
what are your deepest desires for the NWB tour? realistically of course. don't say you want to hear an extended 45 minute version of charmicarmicat.

You gotta be a bit unrealistic with the Melvins every now and then. My desire would be to drop some (A)SA material.

Eggnog & Bullhead
I like the bullhead approach even if not so realistic.
so lets say they play cow just for the drums.
heater moves and eyes! heater moves and eyes!
I saw them play Merle Haggard's Okey in Muskogee as a duo, so I'd like to see them do it with two drumsets and a bassist
and if they were to play anything live I'd want it to be The Anti-Vermin Seed, You're Blessened, Echohead/Don't Piece Me, and Skin Horse
Queen
Zodiac
Roman Dog Bird

POTRE
Black Stooges
come on! what part of "realistic " aren't you getting? :D
no way do they play POTRE, isabella, see how pretty, etc.
try to get inside buzz's mind. since I assume he captain's the setlist.
think how he thinks using the last 2 tour setlists as your guide. its going to be a more popular song. fairly simple. no 20 minute feedback tracks.
those days of MELVINS sets are unfortunately prolly behind us.
*swallows lump in throat*
your blessened, brain center at whipples, sacrifice, hell any and all of lysol, divorced
I'd love to hear Hide as an opener.
The Bloat

Hog Leg
Anaconda
Goose Freight Train
HAG ME
Manky
Euthanasia
Matt-Alec
I tried to make it realistic. I can't make a proper list cause I always think of what I'd like to hear and not what they are likely to play. The again, I will probably go crazy no matter what they play. But there's simply so much stuff that I really want to hear, like Stag and HAT material, since I've only seen them once. I seriously hope they will play It Tastes Better Than The Truth.

Yes.
Also Eye Flys.
EyeFlys with double drumming... i think would be prett cool
hag me would be a good one.
lovely butterflies. revulsion/we reach????
I dont know!!! whatever they play im sure will be awesome.

they played butterflies on the (a)sa tour. so I doubt we'll hear it again.
which sucks.

The Bit
Buck Owens
Roadbull
Skin Horse
Zodiac
For encore/cover:
Lexicon Devil
Way of the World
God of Thunder
Leech
Sacrifice
I just realized that since Dog Island is tuned in Drop A they could easily throw in some other Drop A songs, like Boris,
Kool Legged or... The Fool?! Isn't it in Drop A as well? I think that would be reasonable, realistic and would make a lot of sense.

believe me, I do to. I'd fuckin love to see a classic ear-wrenching noise fest complete with 27 minute drum solos and 50 minute feedback close.
but like I said, I'm using what I've seen on the last 2 tours as a guide. 1 1/2 hour mechanical sets with staple songs. night in and night out.
*edit!! GENIOUS THEORY creepy! I like your thought process. but the fool ain't gonna happen.
where would the slide bass come from? so in that case: BORIS! BORIS! BORIS! BORIS!
I'm betting there's one or two off of the 83 melvins/walsby cd.

The Making Love demos? No way. Too complicated. Remember what Buzz said when they were asked to do Houdini? He was tahnkful they didn't ask them to do freakin' Ozma. I wished though, I wished. My vote goes to Vile Vermillion Vacancy.
Maybe a cover or somethig? Just As The Day Was Dawning.
With Teeth would be beautiful. Anything off The Maggot would be great.
We'll see.
For as much as Buzz talks up COD being one of the albums he is most proud of but that he feels the fans don't appreciate it I can see why they lean more towards song based setlists at this point. Now if they got another opening slot for some bigger band I bet we would see some more noise sets. Or if they added DSS on second guitar I could see some contact mic madness and POTRE material (kinda like the 2006 MPLS shows with DSS on bass, I was just listening to the Soovac set last night and it fucking kills). Can you imagine a 2 drum, 2 guitar melvins line up? Fucking killer.
Of course, now that Toshi is in Big Biz, Melvins could just add him on 2nd guitar.
Im hoping for some Boris, Revolve,Queen,Hooch,Night Goat or even Set me straight 8)
Manky, hands down.
It's where this whole double drums thing started.
Black Stooges

I wholeheartedly agree. I'm listening to this supposedly "bad song" they chopped off Houdini at the moment. It's great.
Now a Limo,Eye Flys,Echo Dont Piece Me,With Teeth,and Some Shit off of Hostile Ambient Takeover.
AMAZON!!!! Really anything from the Kevin era. Only hearing two songs isn't enough. Oddly they've played more Joe Preston era songs.
June Bug, Roadbull, Skweetis, Easy As It Was, Boris would be nice.
QUEEN
anti-vermin seed
The Maggot (my favorite) in it's entirety
Sky Pup
Boris
Bar X the Rocking M
Queen
Your Blessened
Revolve
Lizzy
Ballad of Dwight F.
all of Ozma, haha...seriously though...i really would like to hear the Horn Bearer (especially with this line-up). that drum outro would be sick! as well as Pink Bat, Black Stooges, Youth of America, yes...and Cow would be interesting.
also, the 2nd half of Let It All Be! why do they leave it out. you could do so much with that live.
Yeah, they need some more noise ... I hope Buzz/Dale & co. aren't getting all "realistic"
It kinda goes against everything that is the Melvins manifesto, no? Though, I wouldn't be suprised if this tour is another fairly "straight" affair as Glen reckons ... just seems the vibe (even more so with NWB) they've been hitting as of late. Though, like I've said before ... don't discount it ... BB could totally handle the weird an' noisey ... & I'm sure Buzz'll whip it out again ... always has ... he's a perv that way. It's been 24yrs ... I don't think their going to pack it in any time soon ... there will be more fucked up noise ... well, there better be ... & why is the slide bass so sacred? Yeah, its one of a kind ... but they could still pull those tunes off ... with freaking bells on no doubt. C'mon it's the Melvins not a bunch of hacks.
As for a wish list?
1. Manky : I've said before, sayin' it again. Double drums & this tune, slower the better ...
You'd probably pee yourself!
2. Skin Horse (1st pt.) : see explination of #1
3. AMAZON: You'd probably pee yourself again ...
4. YOA : Did you just shit your pants!? Someone else also mentioned this tune. Sorry forgot
whom ... suffice to say they must have a huge brain ... that's one great idea!
5. Echohead/Don't Piece Me : or mabey ... no, ... and Eye Flys & Big as a Mt. Damn! any
from the Porch.
6. Adolecent Wet Dream: Sure its a cover but at this point they kinda own it ... a classic!
7. Zodiac: Oh yes Glen Cow would be awesome ... & not just for the drums.
8. Pink Bat: You say unrealistic! I say ... Punk Rock!!
9. Anti Vermin Seed: see explination #8
10. Tipping the Lion
11. Little Judas Chongo
12. With Yo' Heart Not Yo' Hands: yeah, another cover ... they done it killer live in the
past ... & you know anythings good w/ double drums!
13. Some other freakin' Cooper cover already guys!!! Mabey Black JU JU ... uhh not
mabey! Black JU JU ! God, I can't believe they havent covered this yet. Its'
puurrfect!!
Come to think of it ... I've seen most of these mentioned somewhere in this thread ... smart bunch!
LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!!

Well, I
BELIEVE Manky is tuned in Drop A as well. It's just a theory you know, but nothing is impossible.
It would work very well with the double drumming and everything. Let's just keep hoping for the unexpected.
I'd like to hear Black Bock by the way.
Happy Grey or Black. how could i forget?
Queen is played out. Put that song up for awhile and grab something else off the shelf.
Pink Bat would be cool to hear live.
Grinding Process
Sweet Willy Rollbar
Buck Owens
Little Judas Chongo
holy shit how could I forget maybe the #1 I'd like to see!!!!

Yeah that's a good one, a real tearjerker that I'm sure this line up with Jared as an extra singer could excellently bring to execution.
How about a BB cover? Just As The Day Was Dawning for example.
They did With Teeth last fall, but I wouldn't mind hearing it again.
These songs I'd love to see and hear live: Captain Pungent/Bertha's, Cow, At The Stake, Manky, Jew Boy Flower Head, Brain Center @ Whipples, Pink Bat, Matt-Alec.
