Rest of 2004 Tour Dates Cancelled

[EGO the Living Planet]

Wow. It sounds like we're going to have to say bye to Kevin.

I don't want to say to much 'cause privacy is involved (and I really don't know that much anyway), but I have some reason to think that's not so.

Dale can't be replaced period.  Obviously his drumming is superb, but yes he does sing too.  Background vocals on almost every song.  He has a great voice and compliments Buzz's vocals perfectly.  For good examples of this hear live versions of Night Goat, Boris, Easy as it was, and At a Eye Flies.  During the Melvins tour in 96, Dale performed Cotton Mouth to end the first set alone on stage with a guitar.

i couldnt remember when dale did do the solo guitar thing. thanks for reminding me.

instead of predicting another bassist switch, why don't we take their word for it and say kevin's just sick.  i'm sure buzz would have no problem saying he kicked him out if in fact he did so.  i for one don't think they are givin him the boot, buzz has said that this is the best period musically in his career and they work together wonderfully.  yeah kevin was pretty sloppy at the shows i saw but fuck it's kevin rutmanis, if he played it straight or acted normal, THEN i'd say somethings up.

[klump]

yeah, kevin is the only one i think really fits the melvins good!

[Bad Gas]

Kevin rules, and that's coming from me, so take my word for it!

lol...smell that sarcasm.

i wasnt being  sarcastic.

[LBowles]

For some reason I'm thinking Scott Reeder as a good replacement.  

[klump]

you mean the bassplayer from Kyuss? He wouldnt cover half of it...

[rusty_sheriff]

i wish kevin was my dad...

I love you pops....

[Dreambox]

When I saw them here in New York, Kevin kept spitting on the stage the whole show.  I didn't remember him doing that the other times I've seen them with him on bass.  Does he always spit a lot?  Maybe he just kept getting sicker and sicker....

Oh.       It just seemed like an obvious thing, since Stag came out in '96 and Dale first did the solo thing on that tour.

its all of the drugs i've done. i'll forget entire performances.

they must be getting paid an awful lot to justify flying to austria to play one show....

and i'm happy that this is the way the world works...
