Thurston Moore, Kim Gordon and The Sonic Youth E-Street Band :)

during the televised segment, due to time constraints I like how they cut out of Reena half way thru the song... that's shitty... i remember how that happened once before back in 1994 when SY appeared on the John Stewart Show and the Starfield Road was cut at the end of the program.

the camera work was abit less than typical, they had a large focus on whoever was singing the song which is expected but they had soe interesting angles but the timing to cut from one camera to the next was kinda poorly done... especially during incinerate during the guitar dualing/solo section the flipped from kim to steve and then thurston with no lee???

yeah again little lee...

i taped the broaddcast because i was busy witnessing and recording the most splendid Vampire Belt gig... Corsano and Nace kill, see them if you can and buy their plastic...

Yeah, but most times when bands appear on late night shows they do one song only anyways. I really like the whole outdoor summer concert series idea. I would go a lot more if I lived closer to Hollywood.

I thought that the camera takes on the band were pretty poor. I liked the angles, but their timing was way off. During the "solo" of Incinerate when Thurston slides his hand up the neck to create that high, squeeky sound, the cameraman cuts to Steve???????!!!!!!! Bad idea. Just goes to show you that the producers/cameramen on the show didn't really care about the band enough to know the song and plan out the camera shots ahead of time.

Also, there was very little Lee. Plenty of Kim camera time, who doesn't have as much to do with the song as Lee, yet they show her more. I mean, come on, Lee is the strongest guitarist in SY and a vital member who helped shape SY's sound as much as Thurston and Kim, if not more so. Perhaps because Kim looks younger than Lee? She still has a great body and from a certain distance, she still looks like she's in her early 30's. Lee is noticabley late-midddle-aged with his graying hair.

Kim looks great, but unless you're blind, there's no way she looks like she's in her early 30's.
