Charlotte Show

[jeremiah]

If any of you are going to be at the Charlotte Chow on the 14th I’ll be there too so keep an eye out for a 6’4" goofball [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Looking foward to meeting some more locals with good taste in music!

[jeremiah]

Also, if you are in a band based in the area, be sure to mention that…..

Very cool, hope I see you there [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] It is a small club but I have never been patted down. I don’t know how they will be if you ask them about recording though. If you get there early and catch J, Mike, George or Eric outside they might help out. ESPECIALLY IF YOU MENTION THAT YOU ARE GOING TO ENCODE IT FOR FREAKSCENE.NET [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

I am starting to go after poeple selling cdr shows and bootleg videos on ebay because they are the reason it is such a hassle to record at shows. I know most bands don’t have a problem if it is going to be traded, shared and not sold.

Look foward to hearing it live as well as your recording for later [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

WOW. This is the 3rd time I have seen Dinosaur/J and he has as usual blown me away again. I went to the show with Jeremiah and our friend Emily. As soon as we got there Jeremiah knocked on the door to see if we could get in to get some posters signed for a contest when Freakscene.net is reopened. Some guy on the Tremont staff said the band was out getting dinner and would be back later, to knock again when they get back and we might be able to get in. About five minutes later the same guy came outside and said Mike Watt wanted to see Jeremiah, so we all went in and talked with him for what probably an hour maybe longer. We talked about computers, of course and Mike was talking up his iBook and about how Macs are so great. It was a very cool [img]images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img] conversation. After that we all went into the Tremont lobby and talked with J and his tour manager. His tour manager told us the story of how they met. He was managing a band (not sure which, Jeremiah will probably remember) a couple of years ago that was playing the same gig as Dinosaur and there was some kind of time conflict about who could play at the gig and of course Dinosaur Jr had priority. They went on and didn’t let his band play. A year later he was having a party on his boat and he saw J there and immediately kicked him off for what he had done the year before. He then said over time they kept running into each other thru different acqaintances and became friends now laughing about their former argument. Anyway, for the next 2+ hours the opening bands played one of them included J’s former roadie (there’s a really funny story that involves a stripper, a guitar strap and his former roadie Jeremiah will have to tell you about). While the opening bands played, Jeremiah talked with people from the freakscene boards and we waited patiently for J & the Fog to come out. Finally the taped preshow soundbyte (I think J said it was snippit of Charlie Richie? [img]images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img] yelling at his band) started playing and we got in our positions at the front and they came out to play. For anyone who hasn’t seen J or Mike Watt play live yet, do it [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img] . J’s screaching solos and Mikes thundering bass and energy on stage make a unique and amazing combination. After the show we stayed and talked with J and George for a little while. In all the experience was surreal, I never thought that I would be able to talk to J. He and his entire crew were very friendly. Sorry if I ranted too much, it was a lot to take-in in one night and I am still recovering from an amazing experience. Anything I have left out I am sure Jeremiah will mention.

-a little note: Jeremiah managed to get some posters signed by the entire band for the reopening of freakscene.net, hope i didn’t give too much away [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]

I was at Tremont Music Hall for the Charlotte show 04/14/01. Peace. I was fortunate enough to get stage left(in front of Mike "the bass machine" Watts) thanks to a 6’4" giant who let me video the show with minor, usual disturbances. More on this video later. Just wanted to let my "new" friends in on a possible, raw video and set list for those interested. Talk some later…

Looking foward to seeing that video [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] Hoped it turned out ok (saw 3 other tapers to…) Also, could you mail me a copy of the setlist or post it here? I know I keep forgetting a song and I want to get them right before I do the full review thing [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] . Very cool meeting all you guys there! I’d have to say we had some of the best seats in the house for watching Watt ‘Freak Out’!
