Well, I just got back from ATP having watched Slint play.....
It was amazing of course, but the world will surely be thrilled to know that Dave Pajo was wearing a Voivod tshirt. The classic eighties logo; right there on ATP's stage....
...in amongst Slint, no less.

HOW FLIPPIN' long am I going to have to wait for the real thing at ATP?

Sorry, if this is what passes for news these days... but some of you who also revere Slint will understand, I'm sure...

That's pretty cool, man. How were they at ATP? I've heard some mixed reviews of their performance.

Did you make the Slint gig in London last night or are you going tonight? I didn't manage to get a ticket & blagging it is far too difficult for this gig!

! Bummer...

I thought Slint were astonishing, or if not them - then the music - and yes, there are widely differing opinions regarding the whole of this years ATP...

They were pretty static for the whole performance, but that music... Nell, I don't know the chances of blagging it, but if you can, do so...

I'm not seeing them at all in London. I had this idea that it should be a one shot deal for me. Just see them once and that's enough.
Luckily I thought it sublime.

Last night I went to "Need New Body" again.
Amazing too. I doubt I persuaded anyone here to get there - a bit late, maybe, or my opinions an unknown quantity.

Tonight I'll be sleeping and trying not to think about my dwindling cashflow.

Here is proof of the lovely "hey, asianboy's"
tastes:

ATP

WOW!!!!
Remember, I once posted a post about how I thought Slint Spiderland (1991) was very influenced by Voivod's Nothingface. I once e-mailed some guy in Slint to ask about this, he didn't know about Voivod, but he said he'd ask the other members, but never got back to me.
Someone's got to e-mail Dave Pajo to ask about Voivod--was he a fan before Spiderland, or after?
SLINT/VOIVOD TOUR!!!!!!!!!

There's great links to photos from here, from all of their current shows.
Slint seemed as elusive as J D Salinger for years, but now there's loads of photos of them siting down and concentrating hard - in slightly various positions.
