Ive seen them only once, in London on september 2nd 2004 at the Brixton academy. It was during the Sonic Nurse tour and all i can remember thinking is "i can't wait to see them again" i think the second time i wont be as nervous/anxious. They were great though.

That was my first as well screamingskull! And still best sy show I've seen so far. Well I've seen them only 4 times, but 2 times @ ATP. London was exceptional, because of the fact that it was first time seeing sy live+it was great, great show+it was packed (couldn't beleive how massive attendance was)+brixton is really nice hall.
Then second time it was in Dublin at Marlay Park 8/19/05. Really weird. It was festival, but everything was weird. Like Sonic Yout with Chemical Brothers? Then attendace was a bit poor for a Dublin I think (which I didn't mind coz I really had plenty space to "breath" in front and watch). Sound was bit terrible, Thurston broke his guitar ( it fell from the stage down on ground), Thurston ended in tank of water (hehe), Lee almost got electric shock from his mic, weird, weird, weird.....still lots of great action.
