Thurston Moore solo acoustic @SXSW2010
 

Haven't heard much of Thurston's solo performance...





After Frightened Rabbit, it was back to the east to see Thurston Moore at the French Legation Museum. This place is one of the best to chill out at with two stages and a nice lawn. Thurston Moore opted to perform at the smaller stage which was great as it is set up at the bottom of a slight hill which provided great viewing/listening. It was a mellow, intimate performance and afterward he stopped for photos with a few people including who I am pretty sure was Eddie Steeples (Darnell aka The Crab Man from My Name Is Earl).

opened the night(!) solo on an acoustic 12-string guitar, playing multi-layered, dream-like folk rock songs with titles like “Friends,” “Blood”, “Circulation” and “With Out.” The tunes were suggestive of what Sonic Youth (Moore’s day job when not running his label) would sound like sans effects pedals and a back band, and about a half hour in, Moore thanked the crowd for listening to what were essentially a bunch of demos.

some more pics here ... http://www.hilltopviewsonline.com/ph...2010-1.1267988

was this his only set? my friend took a pic that appears to be thurston solo acoustic in a club in the evening (i believe after the demolished thoughts set?)

I think he might have played two sets. I've seen other pictures where he played inside.

usually a lot of SXSW recordings can be found online, hopefully this year too

Fri/end on a twelve string...

Lyrics:

"Im not running away
Circulation makes her crazy
??She's like here to stay/say??
Shes came by to steal yr gravy"

I don't know about you guys but this is getting me excited....

thank you! new song seems like a nice continuation of TOTA. it's seems like it will be something from same waters..acoustic..maybe not.

I think this album is going to be a killer. Maybe thurston's gonna put a kurt vile psychadelic vibe over the record. Just dreaming

just seen that SXSW in six minutes video on youtube. Hole played there as well? what the..? new album? I doubt T would try to sort out TYPB issue. probably they didn't even met.

Thurston is smoking! Didn't know he smoked.
Great Song!:cool: What tuning is that? Sounds great.

i also would like to see the acoustic side of Lee.
