Mogwai is My Friend

[suprefan]

Ooops $40, how did I miss that. L.A. is only $22.50 but add fees and whatnot and it will be $40 pretty much. Just remember to go in person and buy it, itll just be over $20 for you.

[betao]

oh yeah definitely. The venue is like a 10 minute drive, i'll definitely be buying tickets there. Fuck ticketmaster.

[rage patton]

tickets for my Richmond show are only $15!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is a dream come true.

If tickets to the Vancouver show are $15... I will go.

[luckyface]

If tickets to the Vancouver show are $15... I will go.

Go regardless of how much it costs. You will thank us.

[rage patton]

Well I am already considering the Sigur Ros show in Seattle... and with all the money I am spending on concerts... I don't really know if I could afford much more.

[Boourns]

I just noticed that the Wiltern show starts at 9, and there's an opener. Why do all the Wiltern shows always start so late? I'm a night owl, but they have a curfew of 11:30, so no 2 hour set. The Dresden Dolls went over curfew but still played for a half hour shorter than usual. Still an amazing show, but, yeah.

no no no...fuck you...go see Mogwai. There's no questions here. You see Mogwai, you get your face melted and your stomach kicked in and you vomit from the sonic joy entering your ears. And you enjoy every fucking second of it. You don't not see Mogwai...that's a rule.

[luckyface]

Tyler speaks the truth.

In case you wanted to know, Album and single covers here.

[suprefan]

The kid is slow to come around. He will regret it later when lets say they play Coachella, he sees a bit of them and realizes the awesomeness he didnt witness 8 months prior cause he thinks we are overhyping this.... That 3 week time period in sept/oct is gonnabe insane, Mogwai, Sigur Ros and MBV, I love the fall..............

Hahaha wow. You really love Mogwai eh?

Who is more likely to be at Coachella next year? Sigur Ros or Mogwai?

Maybe I like em a little.

Mogwai...Sigur Ros...hard to say. Could be both, could be none. If I were to guess based on history, I'd say Mogwai...but that's still no reason to miss them...EVER

[leo01g]

Wow is this sold out already? damnit why didnt i see this yesterday

[leo01g]

nvm tickets onsale the 13th

[justinaqui]

Tickets for the Atlanta show are only $18. They're going to be screwed when they go back to Scotland and it turns out they only made GBP300 after the exchange for the whole tour.

[shakermaker113]

$22.50 for san francisco... that's less than I thought. great!

on another note, I avoided buying the re-release of Young Team when I was in the uk, the logic being that it would be available cheaper once I got home. which would be true if it was being released here... but cannot find it anywhere. is it a uk-only thing? fuck.

[suprefan]

Young Team was re released here and everything. And its ''cheaper'' per say.

Are you talking about the CD? They had tons of them at Amoeba and you should be able to pick it up on Amazon if you cannot find it in stores. The vinyl is a different story. You will need to buy that online and have it shipped from the UK. Only 2,000 of them were made and only 500 were being sent to US distributors.

[shakermaker113]

odd, when I was at amoeba last weekend I couldn't find any copies. I see it on amazon now -- it still displays the original artwork, which is why I didn't see it before. did they reuse the old artwork for the US release?

Kind of. There is a slip cover, which is the black and red cover you see on websites. Once you take that off, it is the original artwork. You will probably receive the one with the slip cover through Amazon.

oh, yeah this photo looks like it was just a slip case:



that's probably what I saw when I was in the uk. then it all makes sense. except for amoeba being all out of copies... I guess I'll check elsewhere.

Man, I wish someone would invite me into Dracula Family...

Enjoy.

[Sushov23]

does the wiltern in LA have a box office to buy tickets? because I am thinking about going to this now, but I don't want to pay ticketmaster rape charges. 25 bucks flat would be nice.

They have one, but you cant go buy tickets. You can do what I doing friday. Going to an outlet in person and buying the tickets with cash.

[fatbastard]

Great picture.

Josh, Tylerdurden is really not kidding. I have said the same shit.

I love the Sigur Ros, but I'll take live Mogwai over them anytime.

THEY ARE SO FUCKING LOUD!

[shakermaker113]

I really like that. is it from the album?

mogwai are loud, yes, but I really wish people would stop putting so much emphasis on their volume. loudness does not equal greatness. it's not loudness alone that makes their shows so epic.

having said that, finding the right words will take me a moment.

[luckyface]

I really like that. is it from the album?

It was an unreleased song that is on the Spring 2008 Rock Action sampler. I am not sure if it will be on the upcoming album yet, as they haven't released a track list. If it is any indication of how the new album will sound, it sounds like it will crush Mr. Beast.

[shakermaker113]

it's not on the album. check it out, from their official website:

The Hawk Is Howling: some facts

Our new album The Hawk Is Howling is released by PIAS/Wall Of Sound on September 22nd and Matador in America on September 23rd. It is just over 63 minutes long. It was recorded by Andy Miller at Chem 19 in February apart from one song which was recorded by Tony Doogan at Castle Of Doom last summer. It was mixed by Gareth Jones at Castle Of Doom in March and mastered at Abbey Road by Sean Magee in April. The songs on it are:

1 I'm Jim Morrison, I'm dead
2 Batcat
3 Danphe and The Brain
4 Local Authority
5 The Sun Smells Too Loud
6 Kings Meadow
7 I Love you, I'm Going To Blow Up Your School
8 Scotland’s Shame
9 Thank You Space Expert
10 The Precipice

"mixed at Castle of Doom". how awesome does that sound? also, they forgot to add the part "and will be remastered at a location to be determined in Spring 2018". sorry, I'm a cynic.

I believe Castle of Doom is their studio. They've been using it since Rock Action came out I think. If you watch the DVD from Mr. Beast deluxe, you can see them in action. And being hilarious.

Livenation's tickets are $30 compared to TM's $35.. just saying. Got my ticket.
