[Ram27]

amazing stuff

reading about the 91 show on nirvana's side:

Because this is the last show of the tour, Nirvana were getting really tanked-up backstage prior to their set. Usually this happens after the show. Krist informs me Kurt is flying on mushrooms, but I'm not sure if I believe him. I film Kim Gordon doing the band's make up. It's a nice, quiet moment. Smashing Pumpkins are playing the festival too. Courtney Love enters the room with Billy Corgan and introduces him to everyone. I think everyone was vastly under whelmed. After they leave the room, Kurt scrawls on the wall in magic marker; "Courtney + Gish" and smiled incessantly. I capture this moment for prosperity.

Nirvana goes on and just about drives me to tears. They were fucking up too, but fucking up gloriously. I film most of the set, loading the cartridges non-stop. I was even calling out songs from stage right. "Hey Kurt, play In Bloom!" {They haven't played that song on this tour 'til tonight.} At the end of the set Kurt goes into distructo mode, and doesn't stop until bouncers accost him. Alex the road manager soon puts a stop to that.

Not sure if this is a hot take or not, but it is definitely my lowest ranked cut on Gish.

So there's that, but - the fact that there was such a jerky shift in the energy of the show surely was NOT helped by the white hot jet fuel fire version of Tristessa that preceded it...

I think it’d be better if you made one thread and just updated it each time you have a new upload. It would keep everything in once place for future reference and viewing instead of getting forgotten about once the thread drops off the first page. Just sayin’.

[NickS]

Yeah I asked that a couple times, so far everyone has said keep making threads.

Anyone else wanna chime in?

[Ram27]

more threads definitely

it's not like the forums are running out of space. easier to tell if it's a new show or just discussion

[Joey Goldberg]

tbh i think the best option (tho probably least convenient) would be a locked stickied listing of all the NickS show threads, or some other such "index" of that nature

tho i suppose one could simply "see all threads" the man if they really wanted the whole rundown

Nah

Like oh my gosh Ram

Ok like not everyone is gonna appreciate what a couple droning, physically-felt bass thuds can do to the chemical mixture feelings in your particular meatbag, or want to get lost in trying to find some pattern between that ominous thud and the colored lights swirling on these misfits/goons up there, and your dad or someone’s cousin isn’t always gonna wanna appreciate that, finally, there is a breather from this oversaturated storm of bricked out wavforms, at last some space to play with the way touching the neck gives the different tones to the stabs/snarls a mysterious/conversational emphasis like almost in a jazz sort of way

So i grant u or concede if u will that not everyone can just be into that. But gosh

[New Art Rioter]

Thank you!

The line up on that '91 show is insane, Frank Black, Nick Cave & NIN also played

[NickS]

I think I'll stick to the SPLRA thread for any upgrades, but any brand new stuff, uncirculated, i'll make a thread.

[Big Truck05]

Thanks, NickS

Welcome! Tried to make a thread but the forum was broken every time.

That show is amazing. Lots of closeups. First Farewell and it was great. Really loved the Take Me Down too

[Cool As Ice Cream]

[NickS]

Yup sorry, a few went out that were small upgrades that I didn't think were worth a thread.

All releases here:

Are new threads working yet? Went to make one last night and got a server error.

[Ram27]

they've only been working randomly like 1/3 of the time for me for months

[NickS]

Still can't post new threads. Oh well.

[reprise85]

I am not having an issue with threads... I think it is certain words that is doing it.

If you want to post something with any title and PM me with the title you want I will fix it.

Sorry there's nothing else I can really do

[Ram27]

oh wow, thanks

do you see the failed threads piled up somewhere? or are they just lost to the ether?

I can't seem to post anything. Just tried a couple word post and got a 500. Server error logs should show what the exception is.

[smashingjj]

hm yeah netphoria is a weird one. it does seem to have to do with specific words, but I never really kept track. plz try again with a different thread title :/
