encoring with two late ones! good ones imo but still - weird to me they wouldn't save for example "rattled" for the encore

They actually ended the show with Conduit for Sale!, but it's cut off in the photo.

I know I an a mere down-channel fashion flunky with a BS in Physics+MBA but if GQ/Klosterman ever need an editor, I did a little bit of copy-editing for my college radio program and can pitch in:

it was an amazing show, thrilled that i was able to see them first. setlist is missing random rules (!), a very pleasant surprise
― randomrules, Tuesday, 2 March 2010 10:30 (fourteen years ago) link
wow, they did "Random Rules"? nice!

I'd love to hear "We Dance" but I think I would absolutely DIE if they played "All My Friends" or "Fillmore Jive"

I mean, seriously, could you close a main set better than with "Fillmore Jive"?
I haven't been able to get interested in the Pavement reunion, probably because I saw them 3 times in the 90s and they were pretty awful all 3 times.
Kinda want to go to the show with the Clean supporting tho.

Damn, that's a pretty fantastic cover!

is it on that page? i'm just getting a blank page ...

Really? Erm, check yr mail in a minute.

that what goes on cover is so horrible... ugh.

what's so horrible about it? love the droney synth backdrop for one.
― willem, Thursday, 8 April 2010 20:02 (fourteen years ago) link
heyo, thanks, willem! i liked this version when i heard it way back when ... not the band's finest hour or anything, but fun.
― tylerw, Thursday, 8 April 2010 20:07 (fourteen years ago) link
fun's definitely a big part of the appeal, but not just that. well, maybe being very tired/lack of sleep helps as well :)
― willem, Thursday, 8 April 2010 20:11 (fourteen years ago) link
isn't the version on the btc vinyl reish the one from kcrw, and not this version?
― Trollmatic Reflexions (ojo), Thursday, 8 April 2010 20:14 (fourteen years ago) link
btc deluxe version is from kcrw yeah ... wish i could get it w/o buying an absurdly priced vinyl box set! it really isn't available for sale digitally anywhere?
― tylerw, Thursday, 8 April 2010 20:38 (fourteen years ago) link
Saw them in Glasgow tonight - pleasantly surprised by how excellent it was. Only rough spots were S&E cuts...not enough treble.

Oh, and Silence Kit and Kennel District. Those didn't make it onto QTP did they

Great gig in Dublin the other night.

Classic. I'm fairly seriously blown away by the Jicks project too. Sweet acid fried guitar swirls there.
― ImprovSpirit, Thursday, 6 May 2010 16:49 (thirteen years ago) link
just heard a rumor that Beck is producing the new Jicks album? weird. don't really believe it.
― tylerw, Thursday, 6 May 2010 16:51 (thirteen years ago) link
Beck did a great job on last year's Charlotte Gainsbourg album.
― willem, Thursday, 6 May 2010 20:06 (thirteen years ago) link
according to the latest issue of mojo, beck is indeed producing the album, which they're saying should be out in september
― kamerad, Thursday, 6 May 2010 20:41 (thirteen years ago) link
Saw them in Dublin during the week. Got off to a bit of a shaky start i thought but by the end they had really picked up steam. Malkmus really didn't seem to be into it however. Apparently he and Mark Ibold did have to make something of an epic trip to circumvent the ash cloud though so he could have just been tired.
― Number None, Saturday, 8 May 2010 00:12 (thirteen years ago) link
pitchfork also says that the jicks recorded with beck, but the pavement reunion will delay the release until next year.
― mizzell, Saturday, 8 May 2010 03:04 (thirteen years ago) link
it's a shame they left the between song banter off the kcrw parts of the brighten the corners reissue...really funny stuff
― iago g., Sunday, 9 May 2010 02:29 (thirteen years ago) link
Hoping the next Jicks album is less produced, and further reminiscent of Pavement. Which obviously isn't what Malkmus is going for.
― kelpolaris, Sunday, 9 May 2010 03:01 (thirteen years ago) link
last jicks was pretty great

Yesterday Pavement played a great show @ Paradiso, Amsterdam. Mostly songs from Quarantine The Past, with a few notable extras (The Hexx, Father To A Sister Of Thought, We Dance, Rattled By The Rush, Kennel District and Starlings Of The Slipstream). I'm seriously considering going to the other Dutch show in July.
― Marty Innerlogic, Sunday, 9 May 2010 12:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Malkmus was really bratty and uncommitted in Glasgow as well. His playing and singing was fine, but he looked quite petulant at times, especially when Spiral did a song. He'd pull ironic shapes and dick around with his guitar held high. People have said this is what he's always been like, but that's no excuse. It was a very different Malkmus to the one who plays with the Jicks. With them he's relaxed and banters away. Ok, it's his project, but he could at least try to look interested. The rest of the band interacted well and looked as if they were having fun, Bob and Westy in particular. It was a good show once they got going, and I did find myself singing along, but it was hardly amazing. Maybe I just can't get that excited about 90s indie-rock anymore...
