Mogwai is My Friend

[obzen]

Yeah I figured as much, it's not really a long, epic song; more chill.

[luckyface]

Sorry West Canada friends, Vancouver show is canceled. The visa issue isn't allowing them to play there. Must have been some re-entry issues if they played there. Suck.

On the bright side, maybe this means we will get a 2nd west coast leg later this year.

[rage patton]

Oh man. I was considering going. I know a lot of people who are gonna be choked.

Freaking Mogwai. I got my ticket refunded and I bought a ticket for Gang Gang Dance tomorrow and some groceries.

[schoolofruckus]

Does anyone know what time Mogwai have been beginning their sets on this tour? If they're starting later than 10:30 pm, I may still be able to make it on Tuesday.

[suprefan]

Satan to close main set, lovely. Hopefully they drop in Christmas Steps, We're No Here and Killing All The Flies tonight.

[GeezrRckr]

Yeah, that was pretty sweet. Just love the build up to the explosion on that one. Btw, the drummer from Errors is doing a fine job of filling in. He may have been the highlight for me last night..especially given that it was only his third show playing with them. Impressive.

[luckyface]

He has actually been on tour with them since April. He has played about 10 or so shows at this point, but still impressive.

God, I hope they keep in MFS tonight. I still need to hear that one. I also have to back out of SD, so this is the only shot I get.

[send me ctrpllrs]

They have to play MFS tonight. It hasn't happened the last two times they've been to LA, at least. I'm hoping I get to see it tonight and tomorrow.

[TallGuyCM]

I hope I'm in the vicinity of both you guys when they do play it.

[GeezrRckr]

He has actually been on tour with them since April. He has played about 10 or so shows at this point, but still impressive.

Really, I could have sworn I heard "3rd time" when he was introduced last night. Maybe the combination of the Scottish accent + the srong edible affected my comprehension at that moment. But, regardless...yes, his play is impressive.

[schoolofruckus]

Looks like I'll be able to make it tonight. I wish I could check out Errors, but I should be walking in the door right as Mogwai takes the stage. Anyone have parking tips for this place?

[Kyliediscope]

I will see you there tonight!

[obzen]

Good show, I really enjoyed the bike ride video. I didn't know it was Stuart's a birthday, dude is funny; reminds me of one of the prisoners from Alien 3.

[obzen]

Someone got a setlist, huh?

[luckyface]

Such a kick ass show! So fucking pumped when they launched into Satan! I have been waiting seven years to hear it live! I know Sasha would disagree, but I loved the new material live. Especially White Noise, Lionel Richie, How to Be A Werewolf, and Mexican Grand Prix. Sorry SF that we got Helicon instead. Cody is the rarer of the songs, though, if that is any consolation.

Nice to see Sasha and Tall Chris tonight, if only for a brief amount of time. It has been awhile since I had seen boardies. Had to get the woman back to prepare for her defense tonight. Tuesday at This Will Destroy You, it is on!

[TallGuyCM]

Amazing. My one minor complaint is that they really should ditch the cheesy visuals (although yeah the bike ride one was ok) and just let the lights do their thing.

Great boardie turnout tonight, cool meeting Cutter and his bro.

[obzen]

No, fuck that -- the visuals are chill.

[cutterbutter]

Insane. Still processing. Sound was amazing, glad I brought my earplugs though. I feel very spoiled by the setlist. Helicon 1 and MFS?! Batcat and Jim Morrison slay, along with the best ones from the new album. Surprised to here "I Know You Are But What Am I?" Didn't think I'd get anything from my favorite album of theirs.

Put this up from the picture of Kylie's setlist I took. I don't believe they played anything other then what was on the list, but if so please edit. http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/mogwai...-23d3e863.html

I liked the visuals, and they only had them for some songs so it didn't feel overdone. Bike rider part was really well done, and the one with the city from the album cover was great I thought.

Poster! Spencer (my brother) grabbed one and I'm glad he did. Looks great upon closer inspection at home. I'll post a picture tomorrow if someone doesn't before then. Got 66/80.

Mogwai is certainly my friend.

[R41N570RM]

Brilliant show, had a fantastic time, set list was great, mostly stuff off of Hardcore Will Never Die.

Getting to hear "I Know You Are But What Am I" was really a powerful moment for me. Jim Morrison and Mogwai Fear Satan were also highlights for me personally.

[obzen]

Cutter and his bro.

The two jew-fro bros?

[cutterbutter]

Ha, yes. I'm the older one with dark hair for reference...
