How many "new" songs did they play? ("new" because they've already been playing some of those for 3 years)

I guess they're not already selling the new album on this tour, right? Come to think of it, I'm not sure if they even had anything for sale when I saw them last time.

Well I'm not a huge fan so I don't know what 99% of the songs were, other than that they played the 'radio' thing, and something about being a aeroplane. Other than that, no idea but even so, thought they were very good.

Didn't have a good look at the merch stand, but Albini did mention something about the new album coming out June 5th - although I'm sure you know that anyway.

Considering I knew hardly any of the songs, and that i'm not the biggest Albini fan anyway, I'm surprising myself in confessing that they were indeed VERY good.

Not overly, just more impressive. Really controlled (which is someething I don't usually like) I wouldn't say they were that loud or anything, but from where I was (towards the back) the sound was really clear.

I might be the only person in the world though that finds the whole Q&A thing a bit boring.

You're not.
Hopefully I'll see them live for the first time on the 30th.

They're probably even better if you've already heard the songs they're playing.

Did they do the ever-tasteful "In A Minute" (y'know - "Fuck a Jew/In a minute" etc)?

Nice! Where did they play, out of interest?

I like Koko - it's got a good sound and it has an olde-world charm architecturally-speaking. Last band I saw there was the mighty Celtic Frost ("London, once more I ask, ARE YOU MORBID??").

I hate Koko, it's nothing but a hipsters' palace. It's nigh on impossible to get a decent view of the stage from 75% of the place, and it's acoustically dire. It's a place where people go to hang out, not to see bands. I'd go there if SY were playing, but other than that you wouldn't get me in there again in a month of Sundays.

Well, I saw the band fine (and the show was a sell-out) and the sound was excellent, I have to say.
