Question Opener for Sonic Youth 2001-2003?

I saw SY back in 2001 - 2003 at the Roxy in Boston. There was a great opening band that I never caught the name of, but they were an all girl band if that helps. Would anyone know what the name of this band is?

Many thanks!

I saw them around this time, but might be off by a year so I may not be of help. But the show I saw was led by two women and had a male drummer. "Magik markers," awesome noise band.

Erase Errata might be it. I remember them being quite short, and with short hairstyles. I'm not sure about Magik Markers though, but I'll listen to both and see. Thanks again!

It certainly wasn't Magik Markers that I remember, but I like what I've heard of them so far. I can't believe they are from CT, where I grew up, where nothing happens.

Erase errata ruled. This would have been around the time of their first record. Didn't care much for the others.

i remember the ecstatic peace website around this time had some killer magik marker footage. their earliest live stuff sounded nothing like their albums.

anybody remember mouthus? they were like that too.

i learned not too long ago that axolotl (can't remember his name offhand) was sharing a house with james ferraro and spencer clark of skaters in berlin during this period (2007). mark mcguire of emeralds was staying there for a summer during this time as well.

2007 was a great year for post-noise cum new-age

I saw them around this time, I really want to say it was either Sebadoh or Low.

No I would have remembered that. It's more plausible it was someone boring like Low or Sebadoh whom I would later forget.
