i got shivers during Inhuman, lee playing the ukelele through his microphone and thurston lumbering around the stage like he was the swamp thing or something, screaming "inhuman!" over and over.

and after show beers were fun!

Work and family chaos doesn't allow me the time to check out posts here of who knows what they be playing etc. I go to Sonic shows anytime they play within 100 miles of mid LI, it's basically the treat i am allowed to do by myself.So i went into last night with no clue of what the set would possibly be. I thought it would be the same core set they have been playin the past year or so with a few additions/deletions.
I got right up front after Wild Flags set in front of Thurston and then got totally blown away. I couldn't believe the set change !!!!! I just kept saying to myself i haven't hear this live since .... or have i ever heard this live before !!! Hell, I usually know the song in the first few notes (name that tune) Ghost Bitch I couldn't even place it had been so since i listened to Bad Moon Rising all the way through.
All I can say is another amazing show by the greatest live band i've ever seen. Keep playing and I'll keep showing up.

I am still in glowingly shock from last night. Everything was perfect. The sun sinking over Manhattan to the west, The moon coming up over the Stage from the east, the skyline lit up techni-color and the sound.

Yes the sound.
The sound was key.
The sonic sounds.
I will always love them.

This was a show i did from the distance, out by the water, but was ALWAYS LISTENING, ALWAYS IN TUNE. Hearing waves of the East River crash on the Brooklyn shore with SY going was perfectly mixed.
I didn't mind the perimeter space and view. Room to dance too.

I also was stumped on a few songs at first. (so glad I had recently bought new vinyl copy of BMR)
My highlights were:
DV '69
Eric's Trip - Lee was really pouring it on!
Starfield Road>Drunken Butterfly
Sugar Kane - I hadn't seen this once since Hammerstein Ballroom 2/27/99
Psychic Hearts -This floored me beyond belief. You see, a band I was in back in '95-'98, called TENT, used to cover it. Memories of me playing it mixed with my idols rocking it before my ears and eyes was so much joy.

Yes, thank Sonic Youth for another perfect night and for always surprising us all.
Please play out more!

Psychic Hearts is too good of a track to languish in obscurity

I have seen Inhuman twice now. Shit.


"Anything is possible through the power of love."--Thurston at the end. "Psychic hearts" felt like it was for us in the audience. Lee was doing some nice, unobtrusive licks there.

Everyone I met, you rock the lobster. Sonic Youth, thank you for surprising me still after 58 shows. That was too good to be real life.

Cheers, Jenn!

It was so great to meet you and a number of the forum members here!

Thanks! (Missed this yesterday) - it was a pleasure to meet you too. All the Sonic Peeps - so great to hang with.

I was the one updating Jenn's iPhone during the show, but it reflected her emotions as well, I lost my shit when they played Starfield Road, was just floored, Kill Yr Idols was one of the best of the night, I was worried during Ghost Bitch cause during soundcheck Lee nearly smacked himself in the face with his cymbals he was so into it, Inhuman, just wow, just floored, well technically couched and can barely see straight with my sunburned face but yeah, I think maybe it was dream and only now awake, but it actually happened

It did actually happen.
