was that a question or an answer?
its a bullshit answer.  what did you mean by yours?  you dont fuck with myspace or mackie? or claiming mackie as a friend(myspace-style)?

He would never sleep with Mackie!  He's got too much respect for King Buzzo!
sheeesh! :lol:  she is a hottie though!
Although..I have a feeling Anaconda coudn't resist her.  The glasses are his "thing".  :P

this title is incorrect, right?
isn't a gig something you yourself play in?

I hear ya, definitely can't miss this one. I'm ready for the letdown though. Melvins haven't played Buffalo NY since '95, Rochester since '97, don't see why they'd get booked now. They normally play Cleveland which is a 4 hr drive, always nice when it's on a weekend, don't have to burn vacation time.
Yeah I hear ya. I live in Syracuse. I end up travelling to NYC everytime they play, like a 5 1/2 hr drive. And the last time I saw them in 2004, the show wasn't that good. That was the show a few days before they cancelled the tour and split w/Kevin. Hopefully they will add some closer dates. I doubt Buffalo or Rochester will be added. It would be nice though. Syracuse doesn't have a venue anymore to support a show that size. They have all closed.


What about Club Tundra, that place closed? That's about the right size venue for Melvins. I saw Isis there in December '04, cool place. Then there's the Haunt in Ithaca. If they played Northern Lights up near Albany, I'd definitely make that trip. I read they played there in '00 or '01, didn't hear about it then. Great club, saw Buckethead there back in March.

It would make sense to play Buffalo, the southern Ontario fans would probably come down too. There have been some great shows with good turnouts in Buffalo this year by related bands - Isis, Dalek, Thrones, High On Fire, Pelican, Sword, Akimbo, Jello spoken word, etc. I know it's not up to the band though, the promoters/club owners have to make it happen.

Well im from rochester and i can tell you they have never played here, FOR SURE after 94 when I got into them.  I went to buffalo in 95, toronto in 2000  NYC in 98?(? not sure of the year here Stag tour), DC and San Francisco last year.  I have probably spent more on plane tickets to see this band than i should admit.  This year im not waiting...See you all in SEATTLE 
WTF ROCHESTER NY

FYI = Tix for PDX 9/9 at the Roseland go on sale Wednesday thru Ticketswest for $15. That's 20 bones less than buying a goddamned wristband. Iommi Stubbs is opening.

Also, can we get a forum rollcall? I'd like to meet some of you fuckers before I die.
Also melvins is gay cuz some of their songs are just noise, i tell you this so you all don't buy albums and find out only one two songs is good on them.

 Melvins did play Rochester in fall '97 opening for Helmet in the gym at R.I.T. I found that info on a fan site. I don't remember hearing/reading about it back then. They might have also played in Roch during the pre-Atlantic years - the late '80s/early '90s dates are vague. Nobody really has a list of all shows played in the early years. I saw that show in Buffalo with White Zombie too. Did you get to see the in-store show at New World Records that afternoon?


Just for shits you should fire off a friendly request to supernautbooking@hotmail.com and tell them to bring the Melvins. I did. They're in Buffalo and they bring ALOT of bands that are heavily influenced by the Melvins - labelmates Isis and bands on Hydrahead particularly. I don't know what else you can do. It's amazing that they can play every year in smaller midwest towns, but we in upstate/western NY get NOTHING year after year. You're probably more diehard than me. I would never fly to see a band. All night drives where I'm back home by 6:00AM are my limit.

I flied the three last times I have seen them.
and I am fllying again in december.  :?

This time around they're actually playing one Canadian date.. unfortunately it's in Vancouver, on the other side of the country, but maybe next time they'll come to Toronto.
