SY live at Paredes de Coura - 15/08/07
 
I went to see them yesterday, and it was fucking awesome, although I was hoping they played more of DN (they played Hey Joni and Trilogy), but great anyway. They came back to make two encores, Thurston seemed to be enjoying the show a lot, as did Lee. I only have one question, on the second encore, Kim seemed to be a bit pissed off (she came on stage with a coat on, to take it off only when she picked her bass up), and while the first encore was the already mentioned Trilogy, that was really majestic (people were flying everywhere), this second encore was a tiny song, like to say that they came and that's it, see ya. I'm a kind of a recent fan, so I'm not very aquainted with Kim's attitude, but I think I'd rather not have a second encore than having to see Kim like this.
What do you reckon? Is this Kim's normal behaviour?

yep. I think she's kinda in a middle age crisis :D

Thin_icE explains that they are "kind of a recent fan."
It seems "Shaking Hell" freaked him out a little.
Then Toxa gets on here and suggests that Kim's alleged mid-life crisis is the root cause of Thin_icE's discomfort.

I mean, whatever, you're complaining that they played "Shaking Hell" as a second encore; that you'd have rather done without it.

Anyway, "Shaking Hell" is just a guess. I suppose they might've played something else. They've also closed shows with "What A Waste" and "Jams Run Free" recently.

yep. good concert, bad crowd. I thought it was a bit short, too, but it´s a festival. I need to see them in a club show.

Well, I'm sorry for expressing my opinion! I just said that she came on stage like she was told to do it, with no will of her own to play another single note, I'm sorry if I don't appreciate that.

It's common in portuguese festivals to boo for encores, because generally it's the festival management that restrains the bands playing time, its at them that people boo, not at the band.

yeah... how many shouted their name?

they're fucking sonic youth, if they want to play, they play.
shout their name? no, let's boo at the festival management...
yeah they will force them to back... sure.
