I understand that Sonic Youth has been opening for Pearl Jam. I like them alot, and want to see what some of you guys think? How do they perform, and what songs do they play? They're gettin' pretty old, as in, age. I mean..23 yrs is a VERY long time. So, how are these guys?

They don't look old.
Eric was using surfaces to play his guitar, he jumped off the stage and played it on a security guards head.
That's awesome!

I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I said, I dont want it.
I just need it.
To breathe, to feel, to know Im alive.
I agree with this. I enjoyed maybe half of their songs. The other half was a lot of feedback and screeching, sometimes for 3 or 4 minutes at a time. It was entertaining seeing the one guy rub the guitar strings on someones head, but it didn't make for good sounding music. If it weren't for the potential Ed preset I doubt I would make the effort to show up for the whole SY set, especially for all 6 shows I'm going to this tour.

I know SY is NOT for everyone. But you can't deny that they have been a band for 25 years already!! Plus, they are a very talented bunch!!
