# I did not...
I didn't realise they were on until it was too late...

What were they playing, songs or mental noise and screaming?

# Sonic youth? Play songs live?
That's what kicking around footballs and wasting people's money is for, right?

# I saw them a while back...
When Jim O'Rourke was still hanging out with them. They played a whole set of songs, with tunes and everything.

The encore was apparently a barrage of white noise that didn't stop until the last fan left the building.

# There's a difference though...
They'd already done the impressing bit... The encore was just a bit of fun for them. The deaf-arsed bastards.

:D

# They're not to everyone's tastes
And I can appreciate that...

They vary enormously though... their recent, quiet stuff is actually rather lovely...

# I know :)
I don't get the opportunity to talk music that often tho, and always feel compelled to defend Sonic Youth...

Not that one off show of Kim Gordon's that I saw though... that was just mental beyond reason.

# Can't remember the name of the song but the have a new album coming out

It was quite tuneful actually.

With about 12 guitars on the go

# 12 is not enough! I demand more!
the most I've ever used on one track is...

*counts in head*

18. There were also three basses, two drum kits, four vocals, strings and a vibraphone.

# haha

# A recording... technically that doesn't count...
But if I could have performed it with all those parts on it, that would have been ace.
