Melvins In-store show at Amoeba Hollywood July 15

[glen]

since i'm having a moment right now let me go ahead and expound upon that:

first of all the song is LOW END for MELVINS.  second of all I've seen them play it at least 4 times live now.  third of all I wasn't horribly taken by it the first time.  fourth of all its a complete waste of 5 minutes of my time at a MELVINS concert when that time could be used to hear a song they haven't played 80 jillion times in the last 2 years. fifth of all JESUS H CHRIST WOULD YOU GET OFF THE OVER SATURATION OF NEW MATERIAL AND MIX A FEW MORE CLASSICS IN!?!?!   sixth of all goddam am I sick of that song.

okay, thats better.  
how often do you hear the ol' glenster actually talk negative about MELVINS?  not too often.   therefore my bitch carries more weight.

At least we get a little bit of HAT because of Civilized Worm!

Good times!
Wayyy mellow show.
 The signing was the highlight.
After giving BUZZ a GO DODGER BLUE vintage baseball sticker, he stood up, shook my hand firmly and thanked me for being a "longtime fan".-ASIAN sounding?!
Dale signed a 1991 tree stick from the LYSOL days I have been squirreling away.
Anyhoot, I saw them at Amoeba in 2002 with HAT in store...This recent one was more straightforward and tame compared to Kevin's antics and THE HAT small amp set arty vibe.

and the crowd goes wild..   

No kidding!  There was a lot of swaying, I saw two guys "rocking out" near the front, but..that was it..and the strange thing, when the honeybucket part started up, it all got still.     Maybe people were in shock?

I was indeed on the side where the picture is heading, near I thought the window, but most likely closer (possibly row four?). It goes from aisle 1 in the back near the registers to six in front, and then repeats.  I don't see myself, if I do I'll say where.

edit: Ok, I think I was back near aisle two, next to the girl shown, but you can't see me. 
Eric Erlandson from Hole was also there; he seems to show up at everything.

There were a couple of guys that got kicked out because they were shoving people around n' shit. Not sure how you expect to start a pit in the vinyl section.

Those were the guys I was talking about!  I didn't see them shoving, but did see them get kicked out.

The Black Stooges drum ending.  Or at least that's what it sounds like.

I didn't see them shoving either, that's just what my brother told me because he could actually see them. We ended up talking to them for a bit and they appeared to be drunk or something so that could've been part of the decision to show them the door.

About 95% sure this is correct. I'm not sure about the order of Suicide in Progress through Billy Fish, I could most definitely be wrong.
Great show, fourth Melvins show. I was in the third aisle away from the stage.  I thought Dog Island rocked especially hard, a lot more dynamics than are recognizable on the album.  Jared flipped his bass amp over onto his bass at the end of the set.    I was at the record store early in the day, Buzz was also there early, talking to friends.  Watched them set up a little bit.  Saw the other guys arrive as well.       Looking forward to Detroit and San Diego.

Didn't you also mention ROADBULL, bHm?

[bUTTHOLEmAN]

Honey Bucket had a song following after it; pretty sure it was Roadbull, let me check

It was probably the loudest I've ever heard them.  I'm now considering going to the Glasshouse show on Aug. 29th and the Fuck Yeah Fest on August 31st.  They've really fucking made the most of this line-up.  And Coady is such a goddamn nice guy! 
My wife said that the thing that bugged her most (she is not really a fan) was that the harmonized vocals hurt her fillings.  If that's not a plug in favor of the Melvins, I don't know what is.
