okay so sonic youth are going on tour and i'd really like to see them. it would be cool to turn this into a GW EVENT thing and have a bunch of us go.
-
ps the 9:30 club in DC rules, The National in Richmond is okay and its the closest one to me 8)
i'd be willing to go as far as Philly if it's just an overnight thing or maybe even NYC if its a 2 or 3 day thing (ie if i can find somewhere to crash)
-
Fuck it.. I'll go.. Why not?
-
idk, i'm thinking DC would probably be the best option. it's pretty much in the middle of the east coast!
-
If I was more able to, I'd definitely go, but I don't see me being able to afford a flight to the east coast of the US during these dates. I don't know though, if I have money this would be something I'd consider using it on.
-
Awww fuuuck, I'm gonna miss the one in my city
-
come to DC :)
-
I'd go to the one in philly AS ALWAYS twerps.
-
July 1st I'm planning on gettin on a boat for some good ol fashioned wet smelly miserable assembly line work so no deal.
O well, I at least saw them tour for rather ripped and ill get to catch shellac in june
-
Miserable Assembly Line work.. Your Commie dream :sly:
-
Its part of my reeducation program.

paramore is a better band than "sonic youth" (seriously what a gay name) will EVER be

Paramore is just cool because the chick is hot.

do you like the pussycat dolls as well
-
id go to royal oak or chicago
-
DC or Philly I will go yes. absolutely.
-
also I have never been to the 9:30 club strangely enough. I haven't been to the Electric Factory either but then again it's not like I've lived i philly my entire life.
-
wait they are releasing a new album??? how come I haven't heard of it yet. gotta step up my game.
-
whattt the fuck where are the canadian dates
-
wait they are releasing a new album??? how come I haven't heard of it yet. gotta step up my game.
ya in june i believe. i heard a sample, was pretty good.
-
fuck cleveland
-
you should come panda :-)
-
I will for sure be at the Atlanta date. Excellent choice of venue too, the Variety Playhouse is an awesome place. If anyone else plans on being there let me know!
-
i will be at the one in kansas city
-
maybe philly but i dont like sonic youth that much
-
the new album got leaked. shitty 128kbps version only tho, im going to wait
-
i think sonic youth is one of those bands gw surprisingly ignores considering how the tastes have evolved.
like we went from mars volta to bort music to INDIE kind of and youth never really got more than panda and I discussing it imho but they're actually one of the few NAME BANDS i think are still surprisingly good to listen to.
i say all this to preface the fact i have a vague inkling from somewhere that i've heard their concerts are not very good for some reason. this is however really vague so take it with a grain of salt.
i also will not be attending as they're all too far away from me!
-
sonic youth is my favorite band i just never go to the music forum.

they're obviously not as energetic/good live anymore because they've aged, but the crowd is always so into sonic youth that it doesn't matter and you end up having an amazing time anyway. one of the best crowds you could get at a show :)
-
i think its more like a foregone conclusion. i didnt like them for a while because i just COULDNT GET INTO IT but theyre one of my favorite bands now and its like, theyre probably one of a lot of people's favorite bands here, so whats to say?
YES, THEY ARE GOOD
the least interesting music to talk about is the one that there's a common consensus on.
-
idk, i'm thinking DC would probably be the best option. it's pretty much in the middle of the east coast!
I live like, 10 minutes away from DC, in Greenbelt, MD...
Never heard of the band but I dun have much of a social life nowadays, so why not? I'll hang if you'll have me...
-
never heard of the band
-
hello my name is luvdisc. i do not respond to any stimuli what so ever

not gonna make fun of you for not knowing the band but i will make fun of you for just saying you'll show up at probably a relatively expensive concert for an album release you don't know about to meet with internet strangers you've (i assume) never talked to.
like there's no social life and then there's that.
-
Why yall gotta hate? Maybe he has a bangin sister with sweet tittays he'll bring along
-
uh if you've got a banging sister with sweet titties you should be fucking her instead of going to concerts. hope this helps. fuck your hot siblings, send the pics to me.
-
PLEASE do not make this one of those serious derails we've been having now guys i was joking I WAS JOKING.
-

quotin' for emphasis. if youve got a hot sister fuck her. then bring her to the sonic youth concert so i can fuck her
on a serious note: i would fuck kim gordon somethin fierce, even though shes like 55

dont forget even going to a sonic youth concert when youre clearly not into music all that much at all so youll probably not have a good time
-
i mean if you've never heard of sonic youth you probably never listen to any music at all but yeah ill go to a "concert"!! what do you mean i have to stand up
-
"I think there might be something wrong with their equipment because they're getting a lot of feedback"
-
i mean true enough but i still think the worst part is SURE I'LL SHOW UP TO THIS "CONCERT" WITH "HU-MANS".
hmm what would be the most entry level concert you could have someone who didn't care about music, still have a gw meet at, and not have everyone else be annoyed to fuck by the music. probably coldplay or some shit although i bet you could have a National/Gaslight Anthem/Hold Steady concert since you can tune them out even when they suck.
everywhere else i bet some gw guy would get sulky or the music would suck!
basically luvdisc wtf man it's less you dont know sonic youth and more everything else about the situation.
an "aids wolf" concert? do the proceeds go to benefit aids research or rabies...welp im down either way.
-
ugh what am i saying i would hate a coldplay concert. i would actually probably turn down a free coldplay concert if i had something even slightly better to do.
i would definitely go to soulja boy though and if oyu wouldn't you should reexamine your social life and think about the question again before reacting.
-
why do you guys care? sure, luv-disc, come along. it'll be fun.
-
i would definitely go to soulja boy though and if oyu wouldn't you should reexamine your social life and think about the question again before reacting.
what. why would you go to a soulja boy concert.
FREE TITTIES
-

FREE TITTIES
some of his recent auto-tune stuff is pretty good.
-
you didnt do what i said huh.
protip its not like going to sonic youth.
-
I can't drink.
Never been to a concert either.
Lets go see Kevin Smith instead. http://viewaskew.com/events/carnegie/
-
nah we're not lame LoL
-
kevin smith probably doesn't want to go see kevin smith man.
jesus get a fake id psyburn if a loser like me can figure it out aren't you in fucking NEW YORK.
not saying go to a concert you dont know anything about (chef is being really stupid by saying luvdisc should drop however much to go see sonic youth and hang out with gw members who can tell you nothing about luvdisc other than hes one of three members who kept his name pink) but saying you don't have an ID and then ASE's all WHATS FUN ABOUT SOULJA BOY you guys really don't know how to have a good time.
-
I bet the BO stink would be stronger at a kevin smith event than any sweaty concert
-
I know how to have a really good time but there's no way I'd go see soulja boy
-
yeah me neither lol
-
The last thing I want to do is give that kid more money
-
lets go see sufjan stevens and weep the weepy way goddam i make jokes about LETS DO X but approx 90% of all very good SOCIAL GATHERINGS i've been to has at least made you feel like someone on ecstasy or drugs wouldn't be out of place (not to claim they were all good but the ones that were!)
you're like 20 somethings you should be having some crazy times and if you're going to plan a gw meet it should be based much more on the shep/lars model than lame guitar hero shit and guess this is a call out on that as well.
I know how to have a really good time but there's no way I'd go see soulja boy
it would be too expensive and NOW it might be a lame time because he's exploded so much and i'd get wiped out in twenty minutes i bet surrounded by kids just trying to dance but when crank dat was up and not quite taking off you know that shit would have been hilarious even at worst and it would be the most bumping fucking time otherwise!
you guys dont go to good parties or i guess my concept of good party involves at least one person on cocaine or something.
this is all a lie i'm 23 and cancered so i actually would have zero interest now in any of this but i'm distressed by how many of you are like SONIC YOUTH...COOL..W.HATS THAT ANYWAYS MAYBE I'LL GO AND WE'LL CHAT.
-
The last thing I want to do is give that kid more money
fair enough replace with....hmm not lil wayne he kind of actually sucks now and kanye makes terrible shows but replace with some generic not great rapper you wouldn't really listen to who would have a killer show that could still be slightly intimate to make the example apply.
CAM'RON
cam'ron would be a great show i bet.
like the concept of a SHOW vs a concert here and that's why you'd see soulja boy which is why i threw him out there but bulletpoints:
-its a dumb idea to go see this concert because you want to meet GWs because this is not going to be a concert like that
-you guys are making me sad with your "but the music/i have no id" thing because you are way too young to be talking like that and i hope it doesn't come from a false sense of superiority that i dont think any of us, even a huge learning books nerd like me, deserves.
-the best concerts i've been to were the ones where people went a little fucking nuts.
-
man if you've got any idea on how to make TREK ACROSS SOUTH AMERICA or something equivalent affordable then let me know! a gw meet doesn't have to be some EPIC ADVENTURE, i just wanted some guys to go see sonic youth with me pretty much LoL
-
I would really like to go to a Soulja Boy concert tbh. I don't know why, but I have a strange fascination with his tunes. Like, the whole "turn yo swag on" bullshit.
I really liked An Evening with Kevin Smith, really cracked up watching it. I really don't see how his Q&A's are lame. :(
-
ugh what am i saying i would hate a coldplay concert. i would actually probably turn down a free coldplay concert if i had something even slightly better to do.
glad u made this double post
-
even tolerating coldplay is one of the Worst Things
-
i guess my concept of good party involves at least one person on cocaine or something.
Lol its never just one person
-
man if you've got any idea on how to make TREK ACROSS SOUTH AMERICA or something equivalent affordable then let me know! a gw meet doesn't have to be some EPIC ADVENTURE, i just wanted some guys to go see sonic youth with me pretty much LoL
no i'm just saying the fact that there are several replies where people are clearly unaware its a concert for music to listen to or just DONT KNOW and then other people are like umm whats a good time mean just leads me to believe a few of the people saying HEH SURE are in it for basically the same thing as LETS MEET EAT SOME PIZZA and i really think if anyone does this they should expect to enjoy the concert instead of being like "lets talk about forums in a corner while easy muzak plays".
and if you don't want to do that you should be wanting to do something a little more wild than going to a sonic youth concert but i honestly dont get why chef told luvdisc to come along when it sounds like he'd have a really awful time.
Lol its never just one person
this happened once and it was really really fucking funny because he actually tore down a bathroom with a sledgehammer and i was the only one not scared and laughing and this one girl started crying but yeah not something you see happen.
-
glad u made this double post
i actually panicked when i saw what i read because it was a complete falsehood and i was thinking of DS or whatever and realized wait I AM THE GUY THAT WOULD HATE THIS ugh.
might as well have written porcupine tree and said lets bring panda and bort along they'll love it.
-
*6 people pour out of the bathroom with the sniffles trying to look inconspicuous*

i totally understand your point about going to concerts to have fun as opposed to "EXPERIENCE THE MUSIC" *sways lighter left to right for 90 minutes*
but this doesnt explain why you would go to see soulja boy as opposed to... uh.... ANY other rapper????
-
Soulja Boy Tell 'Em, yeah
Right now it's going down, yeah
Looking for that Soulja Girl
Ay, oh yeah, ay ay ay
Damn, watch me do
Damn, watch me do
Yeah, ay ay
-
because rap shows are like all other concerts and soulja boy would be full of completely insane people dancing all in unison going completely nuts and if this doesn't sound like an insanely fun time you weird.
-
I'd go to a soldier boy concert just to see him. He's a cutey.
-

nah nigga you weird. this sounds lame. whoaaa a bunch of stupid kids with bad taste in music doing a stupid dance yesss lets pay for this shit
-
ugh what am i saying i would hate a coldplay concert. i would actually probably turn down a free coldplay concert if i had something even slightly better to do.
man i met someone (who i never talked to again) that was SOOO OBSESSED!!! with coldplay he got on a plane and travelled from halifax to toronto everytime coldplay came for a concert and made sure he got front row tickets. he said he cried last time he saw them.
he looks like astereotypical homosexual
-
man i was going to travel down to seattle with my friend this summer to see sasquatch festival. it was going to be fucking awesome, we were going to go to vancouver and drive down to america and fuckign EXPLORE and i was going to suggest meeting gws if there were any around ther but the tix sold out :(
-
i'd go to a soulja boy concert. i've seen to far worse artists and it was fun as hell so fuk u all
-
at this point i'll be honest i would be too TIRED to participate in a soulja boy concert but when i was like 21 man are you kidding.
a bunch of kids it's not paramore dude. it would be a lot of dumbasses our age off their ass and it would be a great time. are you also like UGH I WOULD NEVER GO TO ANY PARTY EVER or something because that is literally all a soulja boy concert would be and joe has a point in that he's probably a bad artist to support but i've always gotten a distinctly snobbish vibe from all the gw concert goers that they go to really boring shit.
and i know you mostly dislike concerts too so i'm kind of surprised you wouldn't be down with at least SEEING that shit and having a good time.
-

I had 2 tickets to every day of the sasquatch festival but I sold them to a couple friends a little less than a week ago cuz something came up that weekend. Shoulda posted that you wanted to go sooner

i dont really like parties no. theyre just loud and annoying man
-
headp's idea of a good time: crossword puzzle and a bag of worther's originals
-
i like parties i am going to one tonite. prolly gonna get fucked up
no coke that I know of tho :fogetshrug:
-
im not antisocial at all although sometimes i can be reclusive for months at a time but
i like small groups. CLUBS//PARTIES//whatever have never really appealed to me.
-

damn dude. i bet we could still scalp that shit but it would be expensive as hell and we would sort of HAVE to take any price since we'd be down ther ealready...
but yeah its kindof a long trip from toronto so we'd only buy them a few weeks/days prior to and its kind of a hassle so we might just go to like nyc or somethin instead, maybe to see sonic youth??
-
i'm going to a party tonight too. ive been partying like every day this week/probably next its kinda crazy (cuz i finished first year of uni and i have nothing important to do till i find a job). i might also do party photography starting next week
parties rule :)

sonic youth are playing the Capitol Hill block party in seattle and I think that would be the best place to see them IMO cuz it's a massive street party/concert in the hipster/gaypeople district of seattle
aaawwwwwwwwww fffuuuuuuuck http://www.capitolhillblockparty.com/
i just found out that the jesus lizard are gonna be playing there as well i cant believe im gonna miss that

i feel this
-
clubs dont do it for me but i like parties where everyone sorta knows each other
-
i've got clubs sorted into different categories. i hate the club club places where every guy is wearing a striped dressshirt, is a huge douchebag and is constantly trying to get laid with awful music blaring. those're usually the "big name" places tho. they're kinda like bros but older and we call them striped shirts
-

yeah those are the ones i'm talking about
-
do you like the pussycat dolls as well
No, those are a weird hybrid of crackwhore/girlband which I really don't like. Give me Hayley Williams!
-
yeah I'd go see soulja boy but some conditions would have to be met:
A) I'd have to be really really fucked up and steel said something about x that would probably be the perfect thing for a soulja boy concert
B) I'd have to have a couple peeps with me for company
thats about it
I'd go see about any show live for fun as long as it wasn't some brutal death metal shit that I probably couldn't physically take. There are no shows playing around here very often but I do whatever I can whenever I can.
-
big parties are honestly REALLY dependent on how many people are really fucked up for me. like that converted me from being a really big stick in the ass guy about cocaine to just "i'll never do it and some of you shouldn't" and that's maybe a stupid way to think but have you been to a house party with yuppies.
-
the weird thing is most of the straightedge kids i know actually party HARD AS FUCK so huh.
-
i've never seen anyone do cocaine or heroin or any of that shit. it has PIQUED MY CURIOUSITY
-
i like big parties where i know a decent amount of folks. the hippie collectives throw some good ones. i just go really shitfaced so that i dont care about mystery people
-
its alsoa good way to get people to feed me weed for freee
-
cant believe so maqny people on gw hate fun
-
cant believe so maqny people on gw hate fun
i want a dom party lets watch family guy dvds and charlie brooker while listening to paramore and bashing off to pics of hayley williams FUNNNN
-
oh shit i would actually do this :fogetnah:
-
what hte fuck is 'bashing off'
-
i think its british
wait a second...
-
paramore parties are the best what the hell are you guys talking about?
[/sarcasm]
-
look, sorry for hijacking the topic but i want something to be clarified
i thought this dom's paramore-craze is just a joke. is it a joke? i hope it is a joke. it's the singer right?
-
what hte fuck is 'bashing off'
what do you THINK bashing off is?
-
look, sorry for hijacking the topic but i want something to be clarified
i thought this dom's paramore-craze is just a joke. is it a joke? i hope it is a joke. it's the singer right?
i love paramore
-
paramore is just blink 182 again and i dont care if dom irony likes them or whatever but they're just a boring little fun band no one should rail for or against imho with a kind of hot singer.
i know phiz or whatever might have an actual love of them but its still boring mall punk music no matter how you shift it but you should also not have an opinion of boring mall punk music!
-
can i have an opinion about how gay all the dudes in the band look
-
you can but you also have to feel bad for caring about it enough to form an opinion beyond "hm. meh"
-
well im not sure how it translates but i dont know if my opinion is more or less potent than HM. MEH. i think i just watched the this is what you get or w/e video and noticed that they all looked really ridiculous and then saw a photo and realized i couldnt tell any of them apart
white people ... yall just look the same to me
-
steel would u... come meet me
-
the only merit of paramore is the hot singer. Except she looks 16 and still trying figure out herself.
-
if you even noticed there are dudes in paramore you probably aren't looking at them right OR you've scrutinized them too far or saw a bad youtube or something.
i can tell you NOTHING about anyone in paramore's looks other than the girl and I think that's the intent.
if you were the bassist of paramore i imagine its the musical equivalent of being Akakiy from the beginning of the Overcoat.

i think it's the hair that really does it
-
the hair is what pulls me off actually
-
I wonder if her bush that colour too xD
-
she doesnt have a bush you fool
-
http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/070919/10artists/paramore_l.jpg
hey anyone notice how she's in the front and wearing diff colors plus the neon hair half the time. It blatantly looks like SHES being marketed, over everything else.
-
weeeiiiiird
-
Now Morn, her rosy steps in the eastern clime
Advancing, sowed the earth with orient pearl,
When Jeremy waked, so customed; for his sleep
Was aery-light, from pure digestion bred,
And temperate vapours bland, which the only sound
Of The One AM Radio, Aurora's fan,
Lightly dispersed, and the shrill matin song
Of Bowerbirds; so much the more
His wonder was to find unwakened Hayley
With tresses discomposed, and glowing cheek,
As through unquiet rest: He, on his side
Leaning half raised, with looks of cordial love
Hung over her enamoured, and beheld
Beauty, which, whether waking or asleep,
Shot forth peculiar graces; then with voice
Mild, as when the girl from Rainer Maria breathes,
Her hand soft touching, whispered thus. For
A pessimist, I'm pretty optimistic!

'Cos they are being heavily marketed dude. And the label is probably trying to push the fact they have a girl in the band. It's fucking ridiculous but it often happens. Next thing you know, you have a diva! But what I mean is that she IS the band, if she probably none of their old fans would listen to whatever the other guys would release.

Of The One AM Radio, Aurora's fan,
Lightly dispersed, and the shrill matin song
Of Bowerbirds; so much the more
His wonder was to find unwakened Hayley
With tresses discomposed, and glowing cheek,
As through unquiet rest: He, on his side
Leaning half raised, with looks of cordial love
Hung over her enamoured, and beheld
Beauty, which, whether waking or asleep,
Shot forth peculiar graces; then with voice
Mild, as when the girl from Rainer Maria breathes,
Her hand soft touching, whispered thus. For
A pessimist, I'm pretty optimistic!

yeah i've been looking for a good place to post this. maybe you jumped the gun but i hope at least one other person read it and lolled that wasn't me because aaaaaaaaa it was such a good post.
Nah bro, I'm in Jersey.
sorry but this was not an excuse for not having a fake id!
like i'm not even saying HEH GET DRUNK but man how do you get into places?
-
when i go to the US do you think they'll accept a shitty fake canadian id? like it used to get rejected here except for sketchy places/convenience stores to buy cigarettes or whatever but the major places rejected it right away, but that's because they know what IDs are valid.
21 is ridiculous.
-
grow up
lololol
-
screw that, quebec here is even 18!
-
i never needed a fake idea tbh. when i was in nyc i would just go into bars and get drinks. i was only like 16 then too. not that i look particularly old or anything (i dont really) but most places (shitty ones prolly) rarely card anyway
-
yeah most of the people in america have no idea

Shit.. I'll buy the booze for ya... just front the cash and gimme a list...
-
thats right folks luvdisc here will meet underage kids off the internet and buy booze for them!! he'll even go to see a "band" with you! hes not an old fuddy-duddy yet, he can still have a good time ;-)
-
Shit.. I'll buy the booze for ya... just front the cash and gimme a list...
Hahaha maybe its not a great idea to bring this guy along.
-
the closest thing i ever did to partying was dancing at an Indian bar/restaurant. there were free drinks and it was pretty amazing. I went twice and both times were enjoyable. I didn't really care much for the music, but it was fun.
as for concerts, i went to fucking warped tour a couple years ago and it sucked. i only went because this girl who was very attractive wanted me to go.
i think the only good thing about it was that tiger army was going to be playing. but for whatever reason we had to leave before they started playing.
we should have a gw meet in my hometown and we can all play at open mic. it'll be gr8.
-
that was seriously a great post
-
Shit.. I'll buy the booze for ya... just front the cash and gimme a list...
woooow holy shit okay.
uh
wow.
-
kinda felt like a dick for making my post making fun of that but its 2 late now
-
no dude i'd go so far as to say luvdisc maybe dont come.
because that's honestly creepy as shit because i don't think anyone at gw knows the first thing about you and all you've posted is you have such a small social life you'd visit net strangers who dont know you and you'd buy the underage kids liquor and uh that's every fucking commercial about internet predators.
this is mekesss 101.
-
i teach a class at the community college: How to Avoid Mekesss 101.
seriously though for some of you talking about coming you are still like 19 years old and at the age of 19 if this was in Raleigh and I was planning to go that post right there would have made me ask a friend to come along jesus christ could you not feel how creepy that was when you posted it?
-
Hi.
I don't think that's creepy really. He just seems like a 20-something social shut-in who's really in to RM2K and doesn't know any better.
-
yeah uh why is that creepy? whoa the 25 year old said he'd buy the booze if the 19 year old gave him the money???? p.....pedo alert....
-
you guys are pussies. like, genuinely pussies. i can't even think of another word for this! if you are NINETEEN and MALE and are afraid of getting molested/assaulted by some 25 year old who says he can buy the booze if you front him money you have more issues than the guy who says "yeah sure i'll meet you guys and we can have some drinks and go to a concert even though i dont really know you that well". this is especially ridiculous because it was not some comment that came out of nowhere. flowerpower said aww i can drink in my own country but not in the us and someone says W/E I CAN GET DRINKS. wow
what. a. fucking. creep
-
dude that description is of a creepy guy.
if you were under the age of 18 and someone said "we're going to meet a 20 something social shut in who apparently has no friends and doesn't know this band and we know nothing about (this is kind of key btw like if Coxswain says I'LL BUY BEER okay we know kind of who he is but no offense luvdisc who the hell are you) BUT has promised to get us copiously drunk" you wouldn't think oh so an insanely creepy guy will be there?
let's ignore the fact i dont know of any venue that lets you byob alcohol to give to minors so he's basically talking about an afterparty away from the concert venue. we can actually probably ignore this as he doesn't seem to know anyhthing about concerts but fyi: luvdisc you probably can't get a list of alcohol, buy it, and take it into any venue ever. this is why they have bars that charge you two dollar pbr etc.

what. a. fucking. creep
yeah you can rewrite this too fun game. tell me one thing about luvdisc that hasn't been kind of weird and come from this topic.
-
guys lets meet a complete weirdo that would daterape our sisters for sure. dont worry in panda's hypothetical we're not a group of gaming nerds.
i'm not saying he would and we all know he wouldn't but if you are not reading that into those posts you're weird. its funny i'm not being serious although i still think luvdisc shouldn't come for the aforementioned reasons mostly because i dont understand why anyone would want to meet a complete stranger who admits to being really awkward irl and it sounds like it would be a boring fucking time for him.
yourhero...stay away from luvdisc...
-
haha i am doing exactly what we talked about this morning RIGHT NOW. war...war never changes.
-
yeah orrrr the more likely scenario is youre freaking out about absolutely nothing and kind of being an asshole by being like HEH LUVDISC....BETTER YA WHY DONT U STAY BEHIND. that could be ANY GUY. i'm luvdisc's age, and i'd buy flowerpower beer. do i want to want rape flowerpower???
if i felt any inclination to HANG OUT WITH GWERS, it wouldnt matter where we were going. i'd be down for whatever! whoa a concert by a band ive never heard of, HOW FUCKING OFFENSIVE. unlike you i dont necessarily agree itd be boring. NIGHTS OUT can be pretty fun even if its not shit youre normally into or familiar with. go figure
also if you really wanna break it down we can do it. in fact i'd prefer it because you're making about five billion assumptions and just hoping no one calls you out on any of them. welp guess what
what you think he said:
"social shut in who apparently has no friends"
what he actually said:
"I dun have much of a social life nowadays, so why not? I'll hang if you'll have me..."
HMMMM. it's almost as if you.....you took his words and twisted them until they fit your ridiculous and unwarranted suspicions. how....how very out of character. I DONT HAVE MUCH OF A SOCIAL LIFE could mean a lot of thing. most probably it means that he just doesn't get out as much as he'd like to so, SURE, going to a concert and hanging out with some gwers sounds like fun. don't need to know the band, we're just gonna chill. whoa he's down to hang out......creepy @_@. nah wait ya just a lil girl, whoops
the only other thing he said was "yeah i can get some booze if you give me money". but again you ignore context. flowerpower complains about drinking age and asks about fake ids, luvdisc says nah dont sweat it, i can get some. you mean he's...he's willing to buy beer for 19 year old men?? PERVALERT
also
"who admits to being really awkward irl"
source???
so ya youre ignoring the context, you're making stuff up randomly (for instance offering to get beer = promising to get you drunk enough that one might find it easy to...heh...take advantage??) and its kind of insane really. would i bring my LITTLE SIS to this? no. he's a 25 year old from the internet! would i go as a 19 year old adult male? uh yeah. whoa this guy who doesnt get out enough wants to tag along and says its fine that we cant drink outside canada because he can get beer....gonna go ahead and fear for my safety here
-
hey luvdisc, i didn't read this page but apparently they're flipping out over something. i don't really care and since i'm going and they're not, you can come and you don't need to feel bad about any of this!!! bring lots of beer for whoever it is who can't buy it himself.
-
yeah luvdisc, definitely come man. also has anyone been able to find somewhere to buy tickets? id hate to have to buy them at the door
-
ryans gonna get raped by luvdisc ~me
but for real you can't bring alcohol into a venue probably and you definitely can't bring a LIST AMOUNT OF ALCOHOL to give to an underage kid in a venue so if you are bringing alcohol you need somewhere afterwards or just buy it there.
-
http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?orgid=3595
go down till you find sonic youth.
tickets are only $25, hell yea
-
okay so who is DEFINITELY coming? id like to get a list together
-
what thats actually cheaper than I thought! i would have gone 40 bucks.
oh its just them and no opener. that's kind of lame actually. ahhaha no offense but i probably wouldn't go if this was in raleigh just for sonic youth! i thought the national were opening or something but man that's not a good enough concert for me.
all i do is pop bubbles in this thread.
-
you wouldnt go see sonic youth for $25 if they were playing in the same city you live in? damn dude
-
just go to a park or somewhere kinda private and drink a bit. it really shouldnt be that difficult man
-
you wouldnt go see sonic youth for $25 if they were playing in the same city you live in? damn dude
nah i'm kind of burned out on concerts anyways and not a big youth fan and i also like multiple bands because some bands can be OFF one night and then i've spent money to have a bad time. just statistics!
just go to a park or somewhere kinda private and drink a bit. it really shouldnt be that difficult man
i disagree, anywhere nearby a venue cops like to troll for exactly this. at least they do around here!
seriously just buy the dude beer at the bar if its that big a deal, no one will notice in the venue itself.
-
dc is not a safe place to drink in the park at night.
-
oh right it's dc, i forgot! go to a hotel or something.
-
well the 9:30 club isnt in the bad part of DC iirc, it's near the mall area. but yeah i wouldnt recommend chilling in a park at night in DC. i think my cousins coming, not sure yet. but if he does im sure he knows somewhere for us to chill at after the concert
-
oh shit you guys are going to DC.
well i still can't come but man i know enough dc people and i didn't know chef was showing up that if i wasn't you know NOT ALLOWED TO TRAVEL MAYBE JUST YET i could have shown up. i've been even looking for an excuse to go do some shit and this would have worked. that's a pity i guess.
-
well if you can come you should! im taking a bus from lynchburg so you could always take a bus from raleigh to lynchburg and ride /w me. i have no idea how you're doing health wise though so im just talking out of my ass
-
why dont you drive?
-
its the weekend after july 4th so the traffic is gonna be terrible. plus its cheaper to ride a bus.
-
no i'm almost sure to be forbidden from interstate travel. actually july maybe not lemme count my pill days.
yeah i wont be in the safe zone quite then. we'd actually be checking my etoposide function and determining my next chemo course, whether it's more pills or something else. nah i'm probably not an option.
-
i love sonic youth for having such cheap tickets all the time! also, are you sure there's no opener? there usually IS even if it doesn't say so here sometimes.
-
well the 9:30 club isnt in the bad part of DC iirc
mmm pretty sure it is. then again what with all the gentrification these days it's probably not so bad anymore.
edit: to clarify though it's not in the WORST part of DC but the area is kinda sketchy
-
so you're definitely coming Roman?
So far its:
Ryan
Ryan's cousin Brian
Chef
Roman
-
yeah definitely. now that i think about it tho i've never been to a rock concert, how am i supposed to dance
-
i plan on smoking a lot of weed beforehand so well figure it out.
-
yeah definitely. now that i think about it tho i've never been to a rock concert, how am i supposed to dance
lllol
-
sheltered life world
-
no i just think roman's only been to rap/electro concerts. like i swear i've heard him tell a story or two about being at a venue and seeing some hiphop guy i knew about, and he said he knows where this one is. and that isn't sheltered much!
dom your assumptions have doomed you at last!
-
some girl just starts saying "i'm against barack obama because like taxes are bad" dom laughs and says "you;re stupid as shit" and its...its paramore...oh no they're spitting all over him! oh god no dom, no hes melting :(
-
n...no! (apology post to roman)
still applies to al ot of this thread though
-
dont be so FUCKING stupid hayley williams would never say something like that. u think someone so dumb could write "Born for This"?
-
yeah I was half-joking because I had an image in my head of me cupping my mouth and swinging my other arm while kim gordon walks on a guitar and I realized that I had never been to a non-hip hop concert before.
-
i thought you were really in to punk
-
yeah but most of the punk I'm into is early 80s hardcore punk like circle jerks/black flag/dead kennedys etc that either you can't see live these days or you don't want to. DK Kennedys? no thanks. also my roommate's a fan of modern hardcore but i find that i just can't seem to get that into it.
-
What kinda tickets are we getting... I looked it up and saw general admission at 80 bucks... and if thats the case I might be able to swing it...
-
tickets are $25
-
uh jesus christ.
-
i generally dont go to shows that cost over £10 except for special exceptions am i the only guy that does this??
i seriously consider £15 to be "too much" the only time i ever paid that much was to see Low
-
i generally dont go to shows that cost over £10 except for special exceptions am i the only guy that does this??
no most of us are in college and while i dont want to keep up this luvdisc thing MAN are you a rich shutin or something because
no gonna let it go.
-
hey luvdisc, i didn't read this page but apparently they're flipping out over something. i don't really care and since i'm going and they're not, you can come and you don't need to feel bad about any of this!!! bring lots of beer for whoever it is who can't buy it himself.
Totally dude, I'm not stressing about what a bunch of forum posters say..
Yeah, never heard of Sonic Youth, but then again, never heard of Jekyll either, and still enjoyed myself at the Michigan Theatre...
Why the fuck not? Isn't that the point of socialization? Get outta the house, meet some people, try to make some friends? Of course, not doing that leads to not having a social life. -=shrugs=- Oh well..
I'll be gettin a case a beer, as I dont drink the hard stuff... Hell, I'm pretty sure three's my limit anyways, so someone will be goin home with some brews...
Someone's gotta bring pot though.. I'm not supplyin my whole stash man...
-
my cousin deals bro so i think i got us covered
-
i dont think thats the point of socialization no
-
also you are apparently ignoring everyone saying something negative so i will reiterate it is a terrible idea for you to bring alcohol to this because you have nowhere to drink it as we've established so unless you are crashing somewhere stop saying you're bringing lists of liquor/cases of beer!
ryan and chef apparently are devoted to bringing you to this thing but you clearly have NO CLUE whatever else I think so I am telling you I would be HELLA SURPRISED if this venue lets you bring alcohol into it as I've never been to one that does and the 9:30 has a bar in it.
it's like walking into a movie theater with a bunch of popcorn.
-
Yeah I was kinda confused as to why someone would bring liquor or a 40 or whatever to a concert. Its just a little weird!
Maybe if there was talk of an afterparty at someone's house or something, the whole 'let's get an alcohol list together' would make more sense! But driving across state lines and brown-bagging a 5th of wild turkey that a stranger from the net bought you in the park before a sonic youth concert just doesn't make sense at all!
-
i don't think he means he's bringing alcohol to the concert! for one you can buy drinks there anyway. ima see if i can get some kind of afterparty thing going after the concert anyway
-
that's still kind of weird because how can you dudes not polish off six beers on your own and if he means A CASE yeah you can't buy that at a venue for sure (i've actually never seen venues sell sixpacks either because it makes much less money) and he mentioned bringing weed. no i think he meant from home!
i mean the bulletpoint is dont bring alcohol to the venue unless you are going to drink outside the venue somewhere because i dont know how that would work.
-
dude maybe he was just trying to be friendly? i think you're overreacting a bit!
-
he was and i am telling him it isn't going to work and he's ignoring the multiple posts that said so!
jeez steel i was just trying to bring these huge metal objects into this mri machine to look at them why do you keep saying no...*keeps posting about doing it*
vvvv make sure you tell him beforehand if he doesn't reply because i think we all said this over four pages and he still posted it and also after you said 25 bucks and we had a derail about the price he thought it was 80 so whatever you guys think he's at least postoblivious!
-
luvdisc: don't bring alcohol to the concert. if we end up drinking we'll just get it after the concert is over.
problem solved!
-
Iam sure luvdisc is a good guy, i just thought it was funny that he was publically announcing that he'd buy booze for minors!
Not that this is a horrible thing, but just something you prolly should keep on the DL
You guys should pool money together and just get a big hotel suite if nobody lives nearby. That way yall could get fucked up and make a mess and not have to worry about cleaning up, roommates, etc..
-
devoted to bringing him. steel. we want him to come. we want lots of people to come. it doesn't bother us that he wants to bring beer or that he made some stupid joke about not having a social life. you are blowing things completely out of proportion. you do this sometimes. stop.
-
if any of you bring a car just stick a big ass case in the trunk, keep one sober driver and put the keys in the back (I'm not sure about DC drunk driving laws but in florida as long as the keys are in the back seat or "not accessible" to the driver you're good) and just chill in the car and do your thing. While you're parked.....in the parking lot............................not driving...
-
I didn't plan on brining the booze to the concert... Jesus Christ.. what a horrible person you must think I am..
After the concert, I'm gonna end up goin out to dinner with the little lady, and while it might just be McDonald's or some shit, it would be the opportune time for me to assist anyone in any party favors for their after show hi-jinks..
devoted to bringing him. steel. we want him to come. we want lots of people to come. it doesn't bother us that he wants to bring beer or that he made some stupid joke about not having a social life. you are blowing things completely out of proportion. you do this sometimes. stop.
Don't worry about Steel... I'm not.. I've a pretty high self esteem of myself that I doubt a random forum poster can make me feel bad..
So what up, Steel.. are you comin' to the concert or not?
Honestly, I'm excited, even if noone shows and I end up goin alone... Been a while since I've been to a concert, and the few people at work who've even HEARD of this band has said some pretty good things...
-
aaaaa wtf sonic youth just announced a show in t.o but it's 61$ for the best seats, 50ish for the mediocre.
-
Two "shittier" 36.50 tickets turns out to be $96.00 :(
-
"A PARTY ISN'T A PARTY UNLESS SOMEONES ON COCAINE AND BUSTIN DOWN WALLS"
"THIS GUY IS 25 AND OFFERING TO BUY YOUR BEER FOR YOU DON'T GO IT'S TOO DANGEROUS"
also are you guys just meeting at the concert, concerting, then leaving or will this be more of an event than just the event?
-
$16 for a fucked up / women concert, should i go? i'm afraid i might get killed
