and it was freakin awesome!

i could go on, but suffice to say that hearing saturnalia live is an intense experience, plus they threw in older material, which was great to hear, as were the covers, especially gonzalez's 'down the line' and 'st james infirmary blues'

those two were born to sing together.

    yeah.
    the show i saw at One Eyed Jacks in NOLA was kick ass!
    And just seeing a show there was a reminder of how cray weird the vibe is in ole' Orleans. Goths, vamps, tramps, and scamps abound. Crazy.

    I think Dulli steals the show, to be honest.
    But they are definately a great pair.

    And like you said, the songs sound SO good live.
    It puts the disc to shame, imho.

    My favorite, i think, was Gods Children, when they played it it just crunched so good!

    If I opened it now would you not understand?

    I can't listen to the disc after seeing the show live. That maybe the most intense show I have ever been to. There is a good bootleg of the Seattle show floating around if you want to try to re live it.

    got to get that bootleg!

    Can anyone help out? Pretty please...

    God's children is so much better live than on the cd.

    Its hard to describe those opening seconds when you hear 'o mama' :) when they open with 'the stations'

    “Life is life everywhere. Life is in ourselves and not outside us. There will be men beside me, and the important thing is to be a man among men and to remain a man always, whatever the misfortunes, not to despair and not to fall - that is the aim of life, that is its purpose.”

    I saw them the other night in Dublin. Amazing show - St James' Infirmary, Methamphetamine Blues and Number Nine all stand out as highlights. But the pinnacle of the show for me was Dulli prowling the stage during Front Street, the entire audience in the palm of his hand, belting it out with so much more passion than on the record... It was a spine-tingling moment.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    Listening to the Manchester show and the quality is really good. You can hear Lanegan a lot better on this show than the Seattle.

    For the boots----Thank you so much!

    I only acquired the Gutter Twins record yesterday, haven't had much time to properly listen yet, tonight that will change! Big fan of Lanegan, not so much Dulli other than the Gentlemen record so we'll see......

    I really want to see them live... I somehow was completely oblivious to the fact they played here in late Feb prior to the album release and there's no London date on their upcoming Euro tour. I'll be seeing Lanegan with Isobell Campbell in June, but I would happily trade.

    I think you'll have another chance. I've heard a few rumors that they're going to do a bigger tour late summer.

    I sure hope so. I get chills when Lanegan comes in on Circle The Fringes. His vocal delivery in that song is sick.

    im downloading away, getting happy thinking about it!

    lanegan's vocal delivery is usually sick, as is dullis, its just that he is more theatrical with it, whereas mark is clinging to his mike stand for dear life. bless.

    Sweet i was at that show and it was amazing. The slower bluesy songs were really good. Hope they get round to do another album/tour soon.
