you could just leave after sonic youth's set is over if it really bugs you that much. and sure, the tickets are more expensive than if sy played in a club, but they're a lot less expensive than if they were opening for almost any other band in that venue. it's not like you're shelling out $100 a ticket or anything.

I'm with the others. It's not worth it. You're paying more money to see Pearl Jam, who I really don't want to see, and are stuck with a shortened set of probably an hour or less.

On the other hand, you can wait to see a Sonic Youth show that they're headling(which aren't that rare, I've seen them play 3 times in the past 2 years), pay quite a bit less money, get to see them play for 2+ hours, and don't have to deal with all the crowds that go along with seeing a band in an arena.

Yeah it wouldn't be worth it for you guys (if you don't like PJ)....the tickets are probably sold out anyway. Not to mention expensive as shit. Thanks for yr interest fratboys!

$117 for 1 ticket? Damn! I'm not gonna go to that show...I'll wait for the proper SY Flaming Lips tour.

im not a big pearl jam fan but i was and alot of pearl jam fans wont be into sonic youth, maybe all that will change, i know if i just saw sonic youth then pearl jam live at any time in my life id come away loving one of those bands and being disappointed in another,

so possibly more sonic youth fans as a result of gigging with pearl jam,

that cant be a bad thing,

sure we here at the board might have to put up with maybe another tread or two about how sonic youth got ripped off by U2 but on the whole im happy if sonic youth want to try to play to new people.

soapbars · 03.27.2006, 10:39 PM

its 4.40 in the morning what the fuck is wrong with me?

goodnight!

dietzer123 · 03.27.2006, 10:53 PM

i enjoy pearl jam. i admire the fact that they pick good bands to tour with. i doubt they think that sonic youth is better than them but i'm sure they enjoy their music and respect them

SuchFriendsAreDangerous said it perfectly. Now that's the SPIRIT! JAH!

sellouteater · 03.27.2006, 11:12 PM

what does jah mean

marleypumpkin · 03.27.2006, 11:19 PM

sellouteater:

Jah is rastafarian's name for GOD. We feel the word GOD, is to I guess you'd say, negative sounding. Jah is just rasta's way of making god a more uplifting experience.

sellouteater · 03.27.2006, 11:21 PM

I'm still confused could you exsplain that again

marleypumpkin · 03.27.2006, 11:26 PM

I'll try my best to simplify. JAH is rasta's name for god. We do not use the word god when worshiping, or refering to him.

sellouteater · 03.27.2006, 11:30 PM

oh i get it now JAH

marleypumpkin · 03.27.2006, 11:41 PM

We feel JAH has a more uplifting, enlightening sound, as oppose to GOD which has a more threatening haulting sound.

sellouteater · 03.27.2006, 11:42 PM

jah your right

I've been a pearl jam fan for about 14 years...nothing hypocritical about that.

I'm sorry you don't enjoy them.

i never said AssBlaster was a hypocrite, did i? stop trying to pick up fights

i'm happy you enjoy them, i don't, i stopped caring about them after yield, it's rad you like bands i don't, that's what makes the board so cool, so many people with different tastes.
