How does Pavement tour effect Sonic Youth?

silverfreepress (sdasher) · 09.17.2009, 12:48 PM

Now with Mark Ibold in the fold who gets him?

According to the press release it will be the 1999 Pavement lineup, Mark Included.

The Pavement announcemnt says that this will be a world tour and thats that. No new material no talk of a 2nd tour, just a jaunt around the world and done.

Will SY go back to a four piece for 2010?

Would Jim come back? Would another step into the role?

Question Mark.

jennthebenn · 09.17.2009, 12:49 PM

Mike Watt.

Mark Ibold · 09.17.2009, 01:22 PM

Mike Watt!

scott v · 09.17.2009, 01:29 PM

I would agree that Mike Watt would be the most obvious choice.

I'm still not quite convinced of this Pavement reunion though...

Where's Gary?

Sonic Youth 37 · 09.17.2009, 01:34 PM

Mike Watt is too energetic for Sonic Youth. SY and Dino Jr should just bite the bullet already and merge to form a supergroup.

I'm guessing that this Pavement "world tour" is only going to take up a month or two.

I doubt that will cut into the SY schedule too much. (Or The Jicks schedule or the Spiral Stairs sched, etc., etc.) They won't have a new album out next year anyway, so I doubt they'll be touring *that* much.

andrei · 09.17.2009, 03:11 PM

haha... i never imagined Watt in SY.
In a kinda way it would be great. Maybe they'll add some vintage 80s SY to the setlist

automatic bzooty · 09.17.2009, 03:19 PM

omfg. if they had watt, would they play in the kingdom #19?

Rob Instigator · 09.17.2009, 03:34 PM

if they had watt would they play BURNIN UP?

If Pavement doesn't tour during the Summer it doesn't matter.

pbradley · 09.17.2009, 04:22 PM

Sonic Youth playing with Mike Watt would be too awesome.

If Watt can't do it, then my top choices would be:

The guy from Soul Coughing (Sebastian Steinberg, I think?)
Chris Squire
Dave Ellefson
Sir Paul McCartney

SuperCreep · 11.07.2009, 03:33 PM

chris squire would be boss.
