Maintainer
Despite some misgivings about the {{Maintained}} template, I've added my name to a few pages. I think its an idea worth exploring, and view my participation as an experiment. The pages are: Best response, Evolutionary stable strategy and Game theory. That my name appears as a maintainer does not mean that I necessarily endorse absolutely all the material that may be on those pages (and certainly should not be taken to imply that I have any more business editing those pages than anyone else).
The Clash, Ottawa Civic Center 5/3/1984 --- The crowd rushed the stage during the encore, the band played on, hugely outnumbered by kids (one in a CRASS t-shirt! Intentional irony?) dancing on stage.
Nomeansno (& many other bands), Montreal 1985 --- The "It Came From the Pit" show. Hitchhiked to Montreal the day before and slept on an anthill between shortstop & third base someplace downtown. The show was in a huge church basement. Rob Wright wore his priest get-up, smiled this beatific smile to all the kids as they came up and thanked him for letting them have a show in his church. Then he got up on stage... Bang! start - stop start BANG! STOP!
Beefeater, Ottawa Sandy Hill CC. Fred crooning "Fred's song" to the six pack of chrome-domes in the pit. Priceless.
Meat Puppets, Toronto RPM. Bruce stole a van and we drove to Toronto to see the band, Catherine's fake ID failed at the door, I hit Cris Kirkwood with a raw ear of corn, he used it as a pick. They were in fine form. On the drive back, in the middle of nowhere, we blew the motor out. Moral of the story: check the oil before a road trip, especially if the car is "borrowed". (The show was simulcast by an FM station, I have a low quality booleg of it somewhere...)
SWANS, Ottawa, One Step Beyond. loud, very Very VERY LOUD, and tight, very *very* tight.
Bad Brains, Montreal, Aug 1989. On a trip to Montreal after the end of field season. Slept on Aidan Girt's livingroom floor. Indoor-outdoor carpeting if I recall correctly, but maybe I just remember it that way because I was covered in poison ivy. Had a hard time explaining the bottle of DEET in my pocket to the bouncer, I guess they don't call it "bug dope" round here. Seriously, you can't smoke up and play like that!... can you?!
Fugazi, Ottawa, Glebe CC, Sept 1989. Fugazi in your broom closet, Intense.
Jonas Hellborg, Stockholm Sweden Fasching. Dr Death invited himself up for a visit and stayed in our batchelor apartment, we took him out to see real music, he whined about how silly live music was compared to raves, half the women there hit on him, we could not figure out why. Hellborg played great (Shawn Lane played great too, but it would have been nice if someone switched his mike off...)
The Jesus Lizard, Portland OR, Satyricon 1998. I thought I had seen it all! Indiscribable, unbelievable! A riot with soundtrack. From the first chord of the set David Yow was off surfing the crowd, mic cord trailing behind. From somewhere in the second song he was buck naked save for a pair of cowboy boots. The pressing question was not "How did the jeans come off while the boots stayed on?" but "How can this band play so f***in' tight". The whole drive home, we just kept muttering back and forth "Do you believe that!...".
Sex Mob, Austin TX Elephant room, SxSW. March 2000. If this is jazz, then I wasted my youth going to see punk shows!
Shuffle list
First ten songs from shuffle on Friday (rules as per Steinsky)
