pavement - BTC

[caribou]

i'm betting most folks here won't give a crap, but for those that are interested and didn't already know, matador records is finally re-releasing "brighten the corners" as a 2 disc set, complete with lots of unreleased songs on 18 november. if you do the "buy early, get now" option through the website, you will also get a live LP recorded during the BTC tour.

thanks for the heads up on this. the real question is when are the reunion shows!

[GIGART]

I care. Thanks for the update.

no kidding...i'd love to see them again, but i doubt it will happen any time soon.

Yeah... Malkmus and Spiral seem a bit content with their solo careers at the moment.

One of my favorite albums...thanks for the heads up!

finally got my copy in the mail yesterday. haven't had a chance to spin the LP, but the cds are great. forgot how great "destroy mater dei" and the radio version of "harness your hopes" were.

At Pitchfork one year, Malkmus played with Bob Nastanovich, and Ibold was playing bass with Sonic Youth...that could have been a good day to get together with everyone...so I thought...SM did play some Pavement songs.

He is playing a solo gig here in SF for Noise Pop next month - so I would think he will play a bit from his career...who knows.

i've got a tape of him playing a solo show from the LA museum of all places from 98-ish, and i seem to remember him playing a few covers, a pavement song or two and a few silver jews songs (i think it was right before american water came out). anyways, that would be cool to see him nowadays do a similar career retrospective.
