you made me realize

i have this long running stance that band reunions are really dumb. i think that for the most part bands belong to a certain era or timeframe and should be stuck to that. there are of course exceptions to the rule. i have passed up numerous chances to see a variety of bands that have gotten back together after however long a hiatus, because i wasnt really interested in seeing some rehashing or attempt to recapture a time long past. ie: the current bad brains comeback.

needless to say after that. this september my bloody valentine will be playing a show at the aragon ballroom, and i will be making an exception to what i had said to the above. i have for quite some time answered the "if you could go back in time to see any band at any point in time?" question with my bloody valentine. i have in my head their live performance to be something like mogwai x 10. mogwai being the current greatest live band ive ever experienced. im hoping that i will be able to secure tickets for mbv and i hope they do not disappoint and disprove my belief on band reunions.

this is one of my top five favorite uses of youtube ever...
