    i still don't understand all the venom towards SK, they are awesome, i mean there really have been only 4 bands that have blown me away live: bowie, PJ, SK and the killers.

    and janet fucking rules, period.

    RIGHT ON GIRL!! :D This band TOTALLY blew me away at the San Antonio show in 2003. I was impressed...i mean, 3 female musicians just playing music...NO lights, no fire, it was just them and their music...and that is what won me over :cool:

    Lydia, i agree. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but also, why the hate guys, I just don't understand, just b/c they are singing w/their favorite band on stage, that gives you a right to say crap about them? Whatever happened to respect?!

    anyoot!

    GREAT songs btw, I LOVE Turn It On..such a dancing song!! Here is another one:

    Good Things
    Album: Call The Doctor

    Got this feeling
    When I heard your name the other day
    Couldn’t say it
    Couldn’t make it go away
    It’s a hard place
    Can’t be friends we can’t be enemies
    It’s just too much
    I feel the weight crushing down on my face

    The hardest part is things already said
    Getting better worse I cannot tell
    Why do good things never wanna stay
    Some things you lose some things you give away

    Broken pieces
    Try and make it good again
    Is it worth it?
    Will it make me safe today?
    It’s a dumb song
    but i’ll write it anyway
    It’s an old mistake
    but we always make it why do we

    This time it’ll be alright
    This time it’ll be okay

    it's fine not to like SK, i understand they might not appeal to everyone but to bitch about it every five minutes is unnecessary because you know it could be worse ;)

    and i think they definitely deserve respect because it's just them and the music onstage, you don't get any fluff.

    Listened to The Hot Rock tonight...

    And when the body finally starts to let go
    let it all go at once
    not peice by peice,
    but like a whole bucket of stars
    dumped into the universe
    Whoooh! Watcb it go!
    Good-bye small hands, good-bye small heart
    good-bye small head
    My soul is climbing tree trunks
    and swinging from every branch

    They're calling on me,
    they're calling on me...

    Do you think I'm an animal?
    Am I not?
    Do you like fur
    Do you wanna come over
    Are we captive only for a short time
    Is there splendor, I'm not ashamed
    Desire shoots through me
    like birds singing
    (The way you move no ocean's waves were ever as fluid)

    They're calling on me,
    they're calling on me...

    I hit the mark!
    I target moon, I target sky, I target sun.
    Fall down on the world before it falls on you.

    Like beggars, like Stars,
    like whores, us all
    Like beggars, like dogs
    Like Stars, us all

    Shoot straight for my heart
    (And when you were near no sky was ever quite so clear)

    Like stars, so small
    Like us, when we fall
    Like beggars, like whores
    Like lovers, Get Up!
    Get up...too far.

    Get Up.

    GREAT song Viggs20...I was thinking of that song while I was walking to work...just love their ode to Sonic Youth in that song, in their style.:)

    and thanks Lydia for letting me listen to Harvest Moon by the girls...how can people say they ruin songs w/PJ on stage?! You guys are INSANE! And they CAN sing, just maybe not in the style you guys are used to:)

    LOVE this part:
    Like stars, so small
    Like us, when we fall
    Like beggars, like whores
    Like lovers, Get Up!
    Get up...too far.

    nah i missed SK on their tour this year but i saw them open for PJ twice at MSG and PNC, both times they were amazing. and MSG was the first time i ever saw SK and I like how they just bring it, straight up rock and roll, no fancy schmansy lights or whatever.

    I finally sat and watched their set in Hamilton and damn they kicked ass. I couldnt stop watching Carrie, she owns the stage!!! Yet another band that PJ has turned me on to. .............It was cool during their set in Hamilton, Matt was rockin out to them on the side of the stage for pretty much the whole set, and Mike and Ed were watching for a bit too.

    AWWW that is TOO cool!! I am glad that you watched them and listened w/an open ear :D Yep...Carrie is always fun to look at, w/her high kicks and jumping around the stage, you can SO tell that these girls are having such a great time!!

    At the San Antonio 2003 show, I went to, Matt joined the girls during one of their songs and played tamborine. It was just TOO cute!! Then Matt and Stone were watching from the right side of the stage during their set...those boys LOVE these girls!!:)

    YES THANK YOU! CARRIE IS THE SHIT!! Looooove her little kicks! :D Yeah totally Nadia, they are ALL having such fun up there. I love that. They have such a great vibe.

    <~~~ listening to HARVEST MOON from Montreal and can't stop :o

    *does hula dance*

    Seriously, how amazing does this sound??? Eddie and the girls sound perfect together. Jesus! See, while some can't stand Corin's voice...I've never been a huge fan of Neil's (I know, I know :rolleyes: )...totally repect the man as a musician but never been huge on the voice. I've always thought this song was absolutely gorgeous though...and now there's THIS version..with ED AND THE GIRLS!!! It's straight up heaven. I LOVE IT & can't get enough!!!!!!! And the lucky bastards got it again tonight!

    Also wanna say how I love Ed for doing a increase of pre-sets when SK opens for them. :) He wants to make sure people get there early! Awww! I love the love! :)

    I agree Lydia, that verison of Harvest Moon is absolutely GORIGOUS :D:D

    PJ + SK=PRETTIFUL music together! :D:D

    I am SO tempted to put this on the Negative Sleater-Kinney threads, but I will constrain myself b/c I am nice like that! ;)

    I LOVE it how they asked Stone about playing w/S~K:

    And what about jamming with Sleater-Kinney, the smart, gritty guitar band that's opening tonight's concert?

    "I don't think that we can help ourselves but to do that," Gossard said.



    AWWWW that is why Stone kicks ASS!! :cool:

    I know that S-K has been ask to play Bridge School before, and said it would be tough breaking their music down, but I hope the decide to give it a go. acoustic punk works for me, lol

    been listening to some of my old s-k concert boots, and Corin's voice is always brilliant, 96, 97, 98, 99, and up to now.

    I do wish they would play a little longer and bust out more of their pre 97 stuff though.

    They did a song both nights I saw them that I cannot find on either of the albums (woods and one beat) that goes "my whole life is jsut a picture of a sunny day"
    Maybe I missed it, but that song is really good (like the rest of them), any help would be greatly appreciated.

    That's "Modern Girl" from "The Woods"....it can be hard to understand under the distortion.

    I've been listening to What's Yours is Mine here lately.

    PBM


    YES!! When I first heard The Woods this one really stood out to me & now I am just completey in love!! This song is AMAZING!! Ooooh man, and that breakdown?! :eek: These sounds??! All distorted and bluesy! Holy !@#$#$! I know it's a bold statement that some would want to kill me over, but totally reminding me of a live Hendrix jam. Looove it! Mmm mmm good. Looove how they ooze back into the song too. And JANET at the end?? :eek: Whooooooooa.

    Damn these chicks can fuckin shred! \m/ :D

    *dances away to......

    ºº~WHAT'S MINE IS YOURS~ºº

    Sit down, honey, let's kill some time.
    Rest you head on this heart of mine
    Tell me, honey, cause you look so blue
    Just how did they, did they get to you?
    If it's all a waste of time
    I'm gonna spent it
    Yours and mine.

    Someone's in the kitchen
    Cooking hearts over the stove
    Don't lie to me, never say goodbye to me
    I don't want to be here alone
    Someone's at the front door
    Selling Band-Aids for our sores
    You can bleed it, as long as they don't see it
    We're not going to be ignored

    Come on darling, let's hang around
    Let's wreck their precious, their perfect town.
    If it's all a dirty shame,
    I'm gonna do it night and day

    Did you ever get the feeling
    That you don't belong
    Said the teacher in the classroom
    I think there's something wrong
    But your desks are too heavy
    And your walls are too white
    Your rules are all wrong
    And it's either run or fight
    I'm still running
    I'm still running

    Sit down, honey, let's kill some time.
    Rest you head on this heart of mine
    Come on darling, let's hang around
    Let's wreck their precious, their perfect town
    If it's all a waste of time
    I'm gonna spend it
    Yours and mine
