From Tinymixtapes:
We TinyMixMunchkins have never had much time for the whole "good is better than evil because it’s nicer" adage. It’s not that we’re insensitive. Far from it! In fact, sources close to us joyful minions swear they saw Mr. (mono)P(oly) just the other day drop a shiny 25-cent piece into an overturned flat cap in front of a couple of down-on-their-luck street urchins whilst declaring, "There! The world is yours, you adorable scamps!" Even though some claim it was a nickel that he spent the morning pounding out to the size of a quarter, and others say he quickly demanded a foot rub and the Caramilk secret in return, it really is the thought that counts, I guess. Nope, in our minds (and in P’s... no matter what he’ll have you believe!) evil kicks ass. We’re all about it, hence we’re busting our y-fronts to tell you that the evilest incarnate Acid Mothers Temple will once again be poaching souls across the country (yes, yes... and Canada too... calm the fuck down hosers. I KNOW Canada isn’t part of the U.S.).

Set your phasers to stun, set the controls for the heart of the sun, and set your agendas to fun beginning April 14 in Los Angeles, because the band who puts the... wait a second... April? Oh well, we won’t hold this distant future tour announcement against AMT, because it is clearly a band driven mad by the tour lust it needs to survive. And like the looney on the corner who walks the line between pure genius and pure nonsense and who smells a smidgen like doodie and screams passages from the "good book" (Sweet Valley High: The Pom Pom Wars), but who, at the same time, kinda starts making sense after you’ve had nine pints and a chicken shawarma platter and is darn near impossible to look away from, are just as mesmerizing when they play live.

Take the brown acid... take all the acid:

dammit. they're not coming to Spokane or Missoula. shit.

Fuck yeah!!!! I cant wait to see them. Their records are so amazing and bizarre. It's a damn shame that almost no one knows of them. Crap bands like Coheed and Cambria and the Decembrists are tearing up the charts while truly vissionary groups like SY and especially AMT are reduced to relative obscurity in todays music culture. Fuckin pathetic.

i went to the show at the grog shop @ Cleveland
last year. man it was it.

thats just another fantastic band that Savage Clone lead the way for me.

i hope they'll come to europe as well. and with europe i mean finland.

Saw them in dublin a couple of months back. If you like the albums the live show will probably kill you, messily, with chunks of brain all over the place. They really are good live. Very good. If you're into the whole extended, heavy, spacy, slightly unhinged & completely inspired jam thing, anyway.

Great hair too. (<------ See avatar)

Kawabata Makoto will also be doing a few solo and duo gigs with Jean Francois Pauvrois in Holland, France and Italy in a couple of weeks time... saw them a couple of years ago and I highly recommend to check it out if you live somewhere near:

Jan.31 (wed) with JF: @ Worm, Rotterdam
Feb.01 (thu) solo: @ Piednu, Le Havre
Feb.02 (fri) with JF: @ Rouen
Feb.03 (sat) solo: @Les Voutes, Paris
Feb.04 (sun) with JF: live recording @ Campus, Paris
Feb.07 (wed) solo: @ Lyon
Feb.08 (thu) solo: @ L'embobineuse, Marseille
Feb.09 (fri) solo: @ Le Var
Feb.10 (sun) solo: @ DobiaLab, Staranzano

i went to see Pauvros and Kawabata play together in 2005 (or was it 2004? i remember there was a thread about it on the old board) and i loved it.

it was in Paris, also at the recording studio Campus in Paris, and the date was also labelled as a "live recording". i have just noticed today that it looks as if the recording was released last year under the name "Mars":

yeah, i started that thread. it was in 2005.
i've seen that they released it, but i haven't heard it yet. i'll definitely pick it up if they have it with them on this tour.

i would definitely like to listen to the recording, but i guess i will have to order the album as unfortunately it doesn't looks like i will be seeing them play during this tour.

they are well worth seeing live. absolutely amazing infact. check em out!

yeah, i've seen them 3 times, always different line-up but everytime they've been really great. hope they'll come here again sometimes.

Saw them last tour, and they were amazing. I couldn't believe how heavy they were! It was like Slayer playing Hawkwind songs. Seriously, they really were thrashing it out for a bunch of old guys. Hell, they were thrashing it out more than any young group I've seen. Pretty different from their records, but awesome.
