WEDS.MAR.19 "Love You Live" 2 -- NEIL YOUNG "Live Rust"/THE WHO "Live at Leeds"

...at The Velvet Underground (510 Queen St.

W). Jay from Soundscapes/Old Soul, Justin & Katia from Lullabye Arkestra, Nick from Old Soul perform "Live Rust" Jeremy Fiinkelstein makes a special appearance as Keih Moon with Al from OPG, Dwight from Basement Arms, Dan from The Brown Hornets and more covering "Live at Leeds." The series kicked off brilliantly with The Beauties and Friends reviving The Velvet Underground's "Live at Max's KC." And it's Jay's birthday on Wednesday, too!!!

In addition to performing the "Live Rust" album, Jay's gonna take over the drums for a major Keith Moon episode in "Live at Leeds." With Jeremy Finkelstein also guesting as Moon, I wouldn't want be that drum kit!

Just ran Heaven and Hell and Can't explain with Jeremy yesterday, and then Shaking All Over and My Generation with Dan right after.

Both are sounding fucking amazing!!!

Hooking up with Dwight Tuesday.

This is going to be some serious shit. Anyone know about the backline situation, specifically drums and bass?

If Lullabye Ark is bringing their bass rig, that would be wicked to play through (if they'd be OK with it)!

Can't wait!

Great players perfoirming two great albums!!!!

It really is gonna be exciting.

Ya live rust..gonna be great..think mr Doc Dunn of MV&EE/Bloodhoney/Ghostlight/Trancedental Rodeo fame is in the band as well!

Dan emailed me today asking us to start off this night. What can I say, but yes! Some seriously great musicians playing here.

Most I have never actually seen before, but there work is well documented, and their skill speaks for itself. I am really looking forward to checking them all out.

Both of these albums are fantastic! Hopefully you all come earlier and dig what we are doing. We start it off at 9:30. Adam. We have some old rough tracks up at: www.myspace.com/leftofzeromusic New album coming out end of April/early May.

Dunn! I think I'll have to check this...

Great to hear that we've got Parkade onside!!!

And I've also added an opening band at 9:30 -- Left of Zero, who are REALLY good!

I'm getting the feeling that this is gonna be a big night.

I'm getting the feeling that this is gonna be a big night. I was already into it on the xopg tip, Live at Leeds should be a trip.

Dunn seals the deal...

Wow live at leeds is it gonna be the WHOLE show including tommy?

We're sticking to the original vinyl, rather than the extended cd reissue, but with a couple extra tracks put in there.

There'll be bits of Tommy, but we're not doing all 33 tracks!

We are only human!

Quote: from: directions in music on 18 Mar 08, 08:29wow live at leeds is it gonna be the WHOLE show including tommy? I'll ask the Live At Leeds crew to answer that question in a reply here...uh, and there it is!

Beat me to it. As pointed out, the Love You Live album performances are all based on the oriiginal vinyl versions.

The true albums !

Should be fun...see you there Wednesday.

We are only human! thats still awesome.

My band are huge who fans too and we are working on ALL of tommy live.

For a 3 peice no doubt.

We have the essentials down (were not gonna take it, go to the mirror, amazing journey/sparks etc.) but alas our own songwriting gets in the way (a good thing) so its been an ongoing project.

We also play "a quick one while he's away" in fact were playing at the Silver Dollar this thursday and if anyone wants to hear "a quick one" we might just do it at the end of our set especially for you

Learning and performing covers in addition to original material is a great way for bands and individual musicians to sharpen their skills and grow.

Players play and covers are a staple of the game.

The Sadies probably have a few hundred up their sleeve....

Especially covers like this.

It's like learning how to build a paper airplane, by working on a 747

I'm really excited to see these songs live. On another note, I would totally be down with working on anyone who wanted to do the Ween, Toronto Live for an upcoming show..

Either as a part of this..

I know it's not on vinyl, or opening up with some tunes for a future one of these..

Or something.. either way, it continues tomorrow night.

Any word on backline?

Gear sharing?

Left of zer0 *heart* dan burke. we dont know any covers yet, so we'll be covering ourselves for the time being! D

Quote: from: RandomWork on 18 Mar 08, 14:40Any word on backline?

Gear sharing? Lemme get ahold of Al and Jay and get rolling on that.

I've got a sound guy down at the club right now and we're the PA, board and stuff prepared for the show....

I believe kit is being shared between the two bands, with Jon from XOPG bringing breakables and an extra cymbal stand to use for the second set (am pretty sure that Jeremy can use Jon's breakables, unless he prefers to play on his own and bring them).

I think i'm sharing the Lullabye bass rig.

Guitarists are bringing their own amps - i know Mike from XOPG is bringing his for the second set. this is all preliminary, but what i know at present.

Now that I have Left of Zero doing an opening set at 9:30, the set times I had planned are: Left of Zero 9:30 Live At Leeds 10:20 Live Rust 11:30 Is that what the bands are geared towards?

Emailed other bands about gear. Next question, is there a sound check?

And if so, what time? Thanks again.

Quote: from: Parkade on 18 Mar 08, 08:25...Dunn seals the deal... Mark!!!!

Thanks bro, sooo look forward to seeing you face to face...been WAY too long...LOOK OUT MAMA!!!!

Now the thread is complete....

Anyone know the cover charge?

Last one was $7 i think

Correct

Incredible performances last night.

A rare level of passion and skill.

Justin playing lead guitar on Cortez was a mind blower.

Quote: from: dan burke on 20 Mar 08, 09:03Incredible performances last night.

Justin playing lead guitar on Cortez was a mind blower. awesome.

I bet the My Generation jam was mind blowing too....

Dan from The Brown Hornets fronted The My Generation segment after doing an AMAZING job on Shakin' All Over (great backing vocal on the title line in the chorus, too).

The main band for Leeds, xOPG, are really something.

The guitarist fucking killed on several songs -- and he's real cool stage style, too. In fact, the guitar play on both Leeds and Rust -- three players for Rust -- may be what made the night for me.

Nick from Old Soul/Dirty Hearts -- man, did he ever soar.

Justin's play on Cortez -- fuck!

I really wanna be there wqhen he does again. There was also Dwight from Basement Arms doing that Young Man song on Leeds.

With his Tom Waitsy voice, it was amazing -- down-and-out Bukowski blues.

And the bass playing by Al hit some total virtuoso peaks.
