Melvins and Down to tour

[Rusty Shackleford]

The melvins have spoiled us by being the best band in the world and now outsiders tend to think we are snobby about other music.   

I speak for myself but after the melvins most bands, including down, seemed tame and lame.

What's up Doc.?

the good doctor is alive!

 Since this tour seems to be a go, I think it's time Melvins do another whole album live, and what a better time to bring back Collosus Of Destiny . Throw in a few from Prick or an encore too.

[Uncle Danny]

Welcome back, Doc!

I think that sums it up perfectly.

I have to admit when I first heard of this I was very skeptical.  I listened to Down and didn't like it at first.  After a bit though, I'm interested.  I'm very much looking forward to seeing them live.

I love how this thread grows four pages everyday!  It's like watching a baby grow into a grotesque monster!

I have a software program that converts ALL CAPS to Upper and lower.
I was testing it out on a few of fil38's posts because I'm getting tired of PM's
from people complaining about his use of ALL CAPS IN EVERY POST.


p.s. personally I think down is a legitimately talented band, you can't
fault a band with a member of Crowbar in it.I believe the Melvins
have actually name-checked Crowbar in the past, and may have even
shared the bill with them at some point.

Give it a week or two.

(The Cat's Cradle is just getting too small for Melvins/Big Business tours as it is)....

I really hope you're wrong about this. Because, damn it, I just fucking moved to Carrboro -- Cat's Cradle is about a fifteen minute walk away from me -- and I was looking forward to FINALLY seeing some decent bands play where I live.

Ah well ... at least there's The Jesus Lizard to look forward to in November!

Did I miss anything while I was away?

Nah. Welcome back.

I didn't know that censorship was a fundamental part of this board.  Interesting.

[anaconda]

  it's not

[bigfil38]

INTERESTING.  I GOT CENSORED AGAIN.  I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THIS MANY PEOPLE GET THEIR PANTIES IN A TWIST OVER CAPS.

IF I PM YOU BITCHING ABOUT PEOPLE WHO DON'T CAPITALIZE THE FIRST WORD OF A SENTENCE, WILL YOU EDIT THEIR POSTS FOR ME?
