So. You guys down south had how many V/VM shows this past week... three or four right? How come I haven't seen any reviews or comments on them then? Come on, come on! I couldn't make it down myself (plans fell through), so I'm eager as hell to hear what I missed. Probably just a bunch of noise anyway... ;) .`-). | ; christopher miller o o' evil@digital.net = ' ps.

WARNING: THIS POST CONTAINS JUDGEMENTS. IF YOU CANNOT HANDLE SOMEONE'S OPINION WITHOUT FLAMING STOP READING NOW! Hey Christopher, James would have been the first one to tell you not to go. After the first show my ears were numb. They didn't actually begin to ring until six o'clock the next night. That was actually my first performance, and I was quite proud to do it with the likes of V/VM. This tour was one half of the original v/vm, Andy stayed home to continue the Jansky routine. I don't know what was more entertaining, hearing the music or watching this man in a ridiculous pig mask nodding his head along to it. I went to both shows at Churchill's, a disgusting punk-rock venue/English pub. Quite fitting. Needless to say I brought along my earplugs for the second show. A lot of butchered pop tunes plus the British national anthem summed up his repertoire. After the ear-bleed beginnings I remembered why I was so excited to get a chance to see him perform, it was truly amazing. The sentimental feel of the pop songs mixed with the awful sounds he created was very moving. "ChartRunners" is one of my all time favorites albums. Though James and Andy weren't completely responsible for all the tracks, it still contains the amazing, distinct v/vm sound that I think is a perfect child of the idm output. Vaudville lives on in this work. I love Autechre, Aphex, Schematic, MaS, et al., and the v/vm work and performances belong just as much to the Hall of IDM Fame. To leave them out or write them off is to take this music too seriously, or not seriously enough for that matter. He and Ashtray Navigations still have some east coast performances left, if they are coming to your town make the trip. > 11/03 CHICAGO - Smart Bar.
