    I'm very excited about this show as well, should be amazing; going even though I have a final exam tomorrow at noon.

    Anyone have a good estimate of when they'll be on? Is 9pm typical for a doors-at-7:30 type situation?

    Haven't seen stage times posted anywhere yet but it's quite possible Godspeed could be on stage by half eight given that there's a 10.30 curfew in Tripod.

    10.30 curfew!! Thats crazy :eek:

    It's standard for Tripod unfortunately.

    Anticipation is killing me now, don't think I've ever looked forward to a gig this much


  • Registered Users Posts: 172 ✭✭Tree Scape


    Any news on stage times.
    LCD finished at about 10:50 I think.....so presumably on just after 9???


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭OctavarIan


    To those asking what time GY!BE are on at... Has any support actually been announced? If not it's possible that when doors open at 7:30 Sophie will already be on stage playing drone music, then the band slowly join in over the next half an hour and proper start at 8.

    Can't wait for this gig tonight. Going alone for maximum immersion factor. Oh yes :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    I'd say they'll be on stage before 9.

    Also the place is going to be wedged so if you leave it until just before 9 to go up you'll get a **** spot.

    Godspeed and my team's christmas party on the same night!

    Should be a good one! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,135 ✭✭✭✭John


    I'm absolutely giddy with excitement. Ten years I've been waiting to see them and it's finally happening! *head explodes*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    It will be class alright.

    Although since I'm going by myself I kinda wished I'd both a seated ticket now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,135 ✭✭✭✭John


    I'll be on my own too but hoping I'll meet someone I know. I'm wearing a green flannel shirt, have a beard and should be taking photographs if you spot me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45 st_jimmy


    On me todd too tonight.

    I've been really pissed off with the sound of the Tripod recently. Back when Slint last played it was good however.

    Here's for a good night! :)

    I'm sorry fellas it must suck to have friends with a crap taste in music. :(

    I've managed to get 3 other lads although it's kinda a haphazard bunch. They don't know each other haha!

    Right so here's what I think the tracklisting was tonight. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Couldn't be arsed naming the actual movements! :D

    1. Storm (minus ending)
    2. First half of Sleep
    3. Don't know. Sounded cool whatever it was!
    4. Static (minus ambient sections at beginning and end)
    5. Providence (at part of it at least)
    6. Moya
    7. BBF3

    Probably missing something but that's all I can remember.

    Oh yeah, best gig ever! :D

    The encore was the Slow Riot EP in it's entirety, which is Moya and BBF3. They didn't play anything from Yanqui which kinda pissed me off coz it's my favourite album!

    Yep last track was Rockets Fall on Rocket Falls. Took them a good 10 minutes to come back on for the encore.

    Great gig though. I was very happy with the setlist and even happier that they played A Slow Riot.... in it's entirety. The band were as good as I've ever seen them - hard to believe they just got back together after a 7 year break.

    I never realised that they use actual tape reels for their visuals as well - that was very cool to see.
