chris, i'm stalking you all over last.fm and youtube :) i do have a video of 'soon' but the sound is terrible. i'm hoping against hope someone taped this show and will post it to www.dimeadozen.org. if that happens then i'll mix the video with the audio and release it. otherwise - its just embarrassing.

One of the best shows ever and folks still find ways to pick it apart. The fact that people are saying that MBV was too loud makes me think that SF isn't really a rock town....MBV is supposed to be CRUSHINGLY loud and they delivered. I was feeling a bit closed in, so I moved behind the sound guy for the most of the show and thought the sound was perfect. I even heard the vocals clearly enough to sing along to most of the set. As for the venue, I actually preferred it to most of the larger venues....Fillmore included. Bar lines were short and drinks affordable, it was easy to move around, and security/staff were laid back. There was even a short bathroom line if you went to the one closer to the stage furthest from the entrance. On average, I attend about 1-2 shows per week and this was easily one of my favorites.

I vote for three nights at the Great American Music Hall...

Hate to be the contrarian here, but I thought this was the perfect venue for MBV. The sound, I would imagine, was exactly what they were looking for. The sight-lines sucked, no argument here. But are you really surprised you couldn't hear the vocals at a My Bloody Valentine show!?

And where should they play next time around (fingers crossed there IS a next time around)?

Never, ever going to the Concourse again for a show. MBV was awesome, venue sucked.

i enjoyed the airplane hangar ambiance as we were sitting on a rocket for realize. i took out earplugs a few times and i could mostly just hear a high-level white noise. beautiful.
