genious artists that know how to make music and noise, what else to say?
Seeing them earlier in the year up in Harlem they showcased a ton of new tunes too. Were they tight on both nights? Hell yeah. Just wanted to hear something I haven't heard. Safe bets with the oldies.
Great show. Like the Wilbur as a venue. Feelies did a great job, but it was Sonic Youth I went to see. No disappointments.
This was the seventh time I have had the pleasure of seeing Sonic Youth and to date it was the best show. The band's playing couldn't have been tighter and sitting in the mezzanine section of the Wilbur simply allow the quality of the music to be fantastic. I was able to hear the vocals every bit as well as the guitars. The music leaned heavily on their new album which is one of their better albums. I might have preferred a few more oldies but the quality of their play and the sound made that matter little. I think the most incredible thing of the night was at the end of the song History of the Message as the guitars wound down you could have heard a pin drop the audience myself include were so mesmerized by the band. Two unbelievable encores and the night was done. I waited three months for this show bought my tickets the first day they were on sale and I wasn't disappointed in the least. Hats off to the Feelies too as they were fantastic as well. A pleasant surprise for me as I was not to familar with their music.
The show was great. Absurdly loud, but great. Couldn't hear right for two days, but it was basically worth it. Both of these bands kick a*@.
this is the first time i've seen Sonic Youth live, and i never thought they would be so downright amazing. after seeing them live, I feel like now i finally "get" them. I'm in love
The band was very tight, and looked great. They played hard and fast. I kinda wish they had varied the tempo a little more on their jams, and played 1-2 of the chill tracks from Murray Street.
Dino Jr. rocked out big time... Shredd is the word! Played old tunes and some never played live tunes.... Sonic Youth still rock like it's 1988 ... their sound was incredible and they still entertain. Thurston is wild... he was rubbing his guitar on everything, the stack and it fell on top of him, on the floor, the mic stand.. he was going crazy! They played 3 encores ... EPIC!
Bravatto, minimalism, exploration, wandering, noise, fast, intoxicating. (+ a Pavement guy)
Both bands were amazing - Dinosaur Jr had a great set and Sonic Youth played for almost 2 hours! Well worth it and a great pairing!!!!
Solid show. Thurston really seemed to be enjoying himself. Ibold didn't stop smiling once.
Sound and vision intact! Great show! Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr. did what they do best...Rocked the house.
Great show! Cold cave was a great touch for openers, Dinosaur Jr really put on a show-lots of energy and favorite songs! Sonic Youth played a long and full set, but missed a few opportunities to get the crowd going.
This was literally the most incredible show I have ever been to. Everybody rocked the house down.
Great show, although it could've been louder! Maybe next time!
Dino Jr. played a remarkable set covering a lot of years worth of songs. Cold Cave (which opened) was mediocre and I have nothing good or bad to say about them. Sonic Youth had great sound mix and played with so much energy. However, they could have played more of their hit songs.
What a great show. It's awesome to see that both Dinosaur Jr & Sonic Youth can still put on a kick ass rock show.
Dinosaur Jr. and Sonic Youth rocked. The only downfall of the whole night was the less than great sound at Terminal 5. But, the bands rule!
sONIC YOUTH WAS EPIC!! DINOSAUR JR. AMAZING LOVED IT
