jeff leopard Posted 17 September, 2009 Posted 17 September, 2009 One of the greatest bands of my lifetime, I'd absolutely love to see them play live again. At the mo though, they're only playing a one-off gig in nu yoik. If they do a proper tour THEN I WILL PHUKING BE THERE!!!!!! :smt036
Ludwig Posted 17 September, 2009 Author Posted 17 September, 2009 as will i, most definitely, if they come to these shores.
Seany S Posted 17 September, 2009 Posted 17 September, 2009 My mate emailed me about this earlier. I was lucky enough to see Pavement on five seperate occassions and not once was I disappointed. The London Astoria NME Awards Tour show they did with Mogwai, Gorkys Zygotic Mynci and Broadcast was one of the best shows i have been to. Wouldn't suprise me if they did something like All Tomorrows Parties, perhaps as curators? I see Mark Ibold is now a permanent member of Sonic Youth, too. Not sure how that would affect long term pavement plans... Am going to listen to some Wowee Zowee when I get in tonight.

Due to bad luck and a degree of laziness on my part, I only saw them once, but they were suitably unforgettable. I wasn't convinced by Steve Malkmus's solo stuff until i saw him live at green man last year, and yes i was hoping he'd play a few tracks off crooked rain but had big up respek for him not playing any pavement tunes at all. and then i think i found peace within myself that maybe pavement won't tour again. and now this!!!! Yeah, i'm sure ATP are on the phone to them as we speak/i type. And if they do a whole album live thing, i'm praying for crooked rain, although wowee zowee if more likely as that's their fave pavement album. dammit, i'd pay good money to see them play kerplunk.
scott_saints Posted 17 September, 2009 Posted 17 September, 2009 Well, I think they suck. Yay anyway...
Ludwig Posted 17 September, 2009 Author Posted 17 September, 2009 world tour announced. Jick. omfg i just came in my pants
Ludwig Posted 17 September, 2009 Author Posted 17 September, 2009 if they played crooked rain crooked rain and most of slanted and enchanted omg

Ludwig Posted 17 September, 2009 Author Posted 17 September, 2009 Orn, stop acting like a Take That loving girlie. stop fixing races
Rory Posted 17 September, 2009 Posted 17 September, 2009 Well, I think they suck. Yay anyway... Shed 7. LOL
Stanley Saint Posted 18 September, 2009 Posted 18 September, 2009 Bugger! I saw them at Brixton Academy for their 'last ever gig'. Was hoping that ticket stub was going to be worth something someday....
redkeith Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 All Tommorows Parties confirmed for May 2010. Tickets and ferry look too pricey for me. I'll have to wait to see if they come to France.
jeff leopard Posted 9 October, 2009 Posted 9 October, 2009 All Tommorows Parties confirmed for May 2010. Tickets and ferry look too pricey for me. I'll have to wait to see if they come to France. I know what you mean. If this is going to be their only UK reunion gig then trapesing up North and spending hundreds of pounds would ultimately be worth it. But I don't fancy doing that if there going to play some shows or festivals nearer to home and less pricey. There's a facebook petition going around to convince the festival hall to give them an eight night residency but the venue doesn't think they're popular enough. Arrrggghhh!!!!! What shall I do!!!!!
redkeith Posted 12 October, 2009 Posted 12 October, 2009 On Friday, for the first time, Saints won on the same day that I listened to Pavement. This was an on going superstition, evet since Adam and Joe played Shady Lane on the morning of a home defeat to QPR (perhaps it was to blame for Kelvin's moment of madness in that game).
Deppo Posted 12 October, 2009 Posted 12 October, 2009 I also listened to Pavement that evening. If we can get the team coming out to 'Cut Your Hair' we'll be unstoppable.
the stain Posted 12 October, 2009 Posted 12 October, 2009 I remember when Peel introduced a new Pavement song, which he initally took to be called 'Rattled By Ian Rush'. Can't remember whether Saints won that day or not. Sorry. I just wanted to help. Sorry.
jeff leopard Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 GET READY TO BE VERY EXCITED Pavement @ Brixton Academy on 11th May 2010 tickets on sale 9am friday morning (23rd oct) if you haven't ejeculated already then you're dead inside.
Seany S Posted 22 October, 2009 Posted 22 October, 2009 Wowee zowee. Definately going to be there. The last time I saw Pavement at the Brixton Academy they were supporting Sonic Youth there >_ Can't wait, presuming that is that I can get tix!!!!
redkeith Posted 9 December, 2009 Posted 9 December, 2009 Got my tickets for the gig in Paris. Bit pricey (40 euros), but I never thought I'd get the chance to see them. Must dash ..... the trolls in the glen are consorting again
jeff leopard Posted 12 May, 2010 Posted 12 May, 2010 Saw Pavement last night at Brixton and they were brilliant, the majority of the set was taken from their first three albums which suited everyone down to the ground. From the moment they started with cut your hair till their final encore of stop breathing the crowd went nuts, and the band were clearly enjoying themselves. So many highlights - stereo, we dance, father to a sister of thought, gold soundz, two states, shoot the singer. If anyone wants to see them tonight or thursday then go for it, last night there were loads of tickets being sold outside the venue for not much money at all.
