  • i will be at the Parkside show. see you there!
  • of course the shows should be 21+ and i am 20 >:O
    i would make the effort to go to both shows if i were of age
  • oh, no. :(

    do you mean both "bay area" shows?
    if so, we should totally jam sometime; i like your lovers cover.
    :)
  • i'm in the south bay, but i go to school in davis!
  • soulpiercing,
    you should come to the oakland show too!!! i'm really jonesing for some new lovers material
  • that's weird. the stork club doesn't list lovers on their calendar.
    thee parkside definitely does, i have tix.

    what up with that?

    oh, but, also, imagination, how is my going to the oakland show going to get you new lovers material?
    did you find yourself a way into that show?
  • oh, by me jonesing for new material is me hoping that there'll be some cds lying around to be sold
    the show for oakland was moved to the house of nostromo which is an all ages; i got a message from a friend and checked the h.o.n. myspace and it looks confirmed, so i'm hoping i'll be making my way there!
  • huh. very cool. :o)

    turn me into an optimist, please. i want to find cds lying around to be sold,
    but i'm frightened to commit to that dream. eek.

    maybe i will try to make both shows...
  • Definitely going to both shows. :o)
  • any idea what the order is? i'm hoping lovers is first; i might be going solo via bart and i know bart's like a mile away from the venue so i'm not so sure about walking around
  • looks like lovers is on last since they have top billing.

    lemme know if you want a ride to/from bart.
    lovers lovers unite.
    peace.
  • thank you so much for the offer! i'm waiting for a response from a friend who also wants to come (he's trying to get the friday off)
    i'm crossing my fingers for good news! unless i can convince another friend to accompany me, which wouldn't be as bad walking
  • damn, i ended up not being able to go :(
    i hope it's amazing stephen! lucky you, going to both! looks like i'll end up ordering that cd online after all haha
  • fantastic show at house of nostromo last night.
    not that i can compare as i've never seen them live before, but i was digging it.
    :o)
  • another superb show at thee parkside last night. yay!
    really nice line up with this new version of the band.

    two late nights in a row has done this old fool in.
    zzzzzzzz
  • Forgot to mention... they're doing a few new song live. New as in, newer even than the album.
    The songs on the album are all at least a year old because of the delayed release.
    The new new stuff is even better than the album material IMHO.

    peace
  • any form of a setlist available?
    also, another west coast tour is coming up in may! hopefully i can make it to one/a few of those!
  • nope, no set list.

    one of the new songs is something like "no regrets" and the other "the boy who cried wolf". i think, could be wrong about those.
    speaking of their new material, some of their new songs sound akin to Tegan and Sara to me, which is fine, because they're another
    of my favorite bands, but i thought it a little funny as their earlier work sounds nothing alike.
  • I saw someone (an audience member) take the set list off the stage. Kinda funny. So perhaps the listing will appear.
  • ah.
    well, i was just wondering if songs from the first two album were played at all haha
    i can't wait to see them!
  • no, nothing off first 3 albums! everything off I am West or unreleased.
  • looks like someone's hitting up homo a go go in sf this year...
    http://www.homoagogo.com/
  • very cool; hadn't noticed.

    looks like Athens Boys Choir will be there too.
    check him out too if you go.
    Katz is hilarious.
  • i'll check it out
    i'm definitely taking my girlfriend out to see mirah and lovers, if age isn't discriminate
  • lovers at 3:45 at somarts!
  • changed to 4:15, just checked the homo a go go site once more
  • thanks for the update. i'll definitely be there.
  • No idea when they're playing, now their myspace sez this:

    8/15/2009 1:00 PM at Homo A Go Go
    , San Francisco, CA
    Cost:
    This is a time change, people! We are now playing Sat at 1pm instead of Sun at 4pm!
  • good performance, but somewhat disappointing 5 minute set. :Z
  • wow, really? 5 minutes?
  • 3 songs... 2 of the new (post-I am the West), including No Regrets which I totally dig.
    I like the other as well, but don't know the name. They said 5 minute on stage, but it might have been 10.
  • Anybody going to the Berkeley show?
