[kj] London gigs

[Rheinhold Squeegee]

A couple of web sites have the KJ NYC gigs mistakenly located at the Knitting Factory, which I find hilarious and sickly incongruous.
 
I hear John Zorn's Cobra is opening with Bill Frisell and there's a good chance Evan Lurie and various members of Sonic Youth plan to join KJ on-stage for an encore free-jazz skronkfest.
 
I guess I'll see you all downtown on Saturday...

I was going to review the gigs, but everyone has already said what I was going to say. Feeling shattered now, but on a real emotional high. I can't stop listening to the CDs, just can't believe I've seen the original line-up, I never thought I'd live to see the day.  For me, Friday was the better night. Stand-out songs for me were "Exit" and "Follow the Leaders". I don't think I've ever heard FTL live - hope it becomes a regular in their set, it was fantastic. Somebody put a clip of it on YouTube PLEASE! And the drumming on Exit is incredible. I've never heard a drum pattern like it, before or since. First time I've heard it live too - check out this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lud0WDSswyY&feature=related I'm glad they didn't stick to song order on the albums, sometimes gigs don't flow when bands do, and it always spoils the element of surprise.  USA Gatherers get ready - you're in for a treat - I'm SOOOOO jealous I can't make it to NYC! Regards to you all.Nuclear Girl
