how far of a hike is that for you?

― brock (brock), Friday, 14 May 2004 10:55 (twenty-two years ago)

mmm. if memory serves, it'll be about 16, but we're playing a few other shows along the way and house hunting while in tennessee, so should be really fun

― roger adultery (roger adultery), Friday, 14 May 2004 20:04 (twenty-two years ago)

better "late" than "ashcroft"

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 14 May 2004 20:08 (twenty-two years ago)

good one. But I regret never actually having seen Ashcroft play. I loved the concept. Pro-administration hardcore. Genius! I mean it.

Wot a lovable nutjob.

Alright, now that sobriety and wakefulness have set in, here's a more thorough rundown.

The most wonderful surprises were The Skaters, Isle of Citadel and Spires That In The Sunset Rise, none of whom I'd heard before and all of whom ruled. The Skaters rocked the noisy tape loops/hand drums/craziness. I must be out of the noise loop or something for having missed out--WHERE IS THE HYPE? Really interesting gritty noise over crazy rhythms. Isle of Citadel are a vaguely Sonic Youthy drone/rock band. Their drummer really held it all together, and reminded me a lot of the Intima's drummer with lots of solid changes. Spires = discordant psych with crazy crazy vocals. Bizarre howls and chants over clattering with the occasionally really sweet lead melody.

Non-surprising highlights = Jack Rose, Black Forest/Black Sea, the Blithe Sons, Wooden Wand, Pelt and Born Heller. The Blithe Sons in particular deserve credit for playing in a culvert that ran from a dried-up stream/ditch underneath the road. I was particularly drunk during their set, so maybe the beauty was magnified, but chimes and acoustic guitars and candles in a corrugated metal tube seems like a winning combination to me. I kept falling asleep during Pelt's set (late Saturday night) but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Mr. Adultery, I also must let you know, that the second tune you guys did at Pasture (with Jessica singing) blew my head way open.

The atmosphere at the fest was consistently amazing. All the folks who lived there were incredibly nice and accomodating, and the grandmother knows how to cook a wide variety of delicious pasta dishes. Similarly, the complimentary oatmeal was just what was needed to fill the belly before a day of drinking/tripping. The bullfrogs were amazing; the bonfires were amazing. The dampness and rain weren't quite so amazing, BUT the rain did incite a mad dash to the Son of Earth tent. Once at said tent, various bottles of bourbon were broken out along with a box of wine. I'm actually kind of impressed with myself that I didn't need to wander into the woods to vomit in private.

Hilarity: the event was sponsored by Red Bull!

― brock (brock), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:05 (twenty-one years ago)

I really regret missing this.
DAMN.

― Sean Witzman (trip maker), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:42 (twenty-one years ago)

what about Virgin Eye Blood Brothers?

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:44 (twenty-one years ago)

VEBB were good dreamy dronessss

― Ian c=====8 (orion), Thursday, 22 July 2004 00:08 (twenty-one years ago)

― brock (brock), Thursday, 22 July 2004 13:28 (twenty-one years ago)

― hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 22 July 2004 13:47 (twenty-one years ago)

"recorded live in the deepest hole in louisville" i think was the first one. the second cdr is in two pieces of paper held together with red duct tape. dont want to open it yet........

― brock (brock), Thursday, 22 July 2004 15:32 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah that "recorded live in the deepest hole in louisville" is new, haven't heard it. Kris gave me this great 2CDr/2 3"CD thingy of their stuff last year.

― hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 22 July 2004 15:40 (twenty-one years ago)

― Ian c=====8 (orion), Thursday, 22 July 2004 16:03 (twenty-one years ago)

― emma cleveland (emma cleveland), Wednesday, 28 July 2004 23:26 (twenty-one years ago)

oh yeah. i forgot to rave. i liked the part where i was shittalking/giggling manicially about performance art as "of" was scratching rakes on the side of the barn. not to say he didnt serve his (TOAD'LY PSYCHADELIC) purpose. best weekend of july.

p.s. (attn:roger) i hope you are nestled in the busom of tennessee by now. give the ladyfriend a nudge.

― emma cleveland (emma cleveland), Wednesday, 28 July 2004 23:35 (twenty-one years ago)

attn: Emma, Brock, Ian:

I will mail tent photos to the person who can and will put them up here on ILM, as I do not possess the know-how to do this. Email me or post here and I'll send 'em off this weekend to the lucky person

emma - was just checking out yr blog, thanks for the kind words! it was amusing to look back - you paint a pretty accurate picture.

― roger adultery (roger adultery), Friday, 30 July 2004 03:05 (twenty-one years ago)
