Just saw SWANS. Fucking incredibly loud.
Power juiced and went out 15-minutes in. They came back and played for a solid 2 hrs and 45 minutes after that. Pretty incredibly. Hypnotic. Walls of sound. I don't know.
Amazing while being relaxing and then abrasive. Definitely a good show. Check the tour out if you can.
As far as all goes as planned I'll be catching Whores on Saturday in Chicago. Shaping up to be a sweet week.
Yeah my rough estimate was ~6 songs over two and a half hours. They reminded me a little bit of the Disco Biscuits in the first half of their set, which was a very, very strange phenomenon.
I didn't think they were that loud while it was happening, but I was pretty far back from the stage so it was mostly PA. The opener was pretty awesome, too.
Club holds 420 (lollllll) and I was very close to the front. Definitely quite loud.

I have to be at home to shit...i cant stand thinking about sitting on seat that i dont know who else has been on before. Its fucking sickening to think about.
On the odd occasions that ive had to...ive put paper towels on the seat and a bunch in the bowl to stop splashback.[/quote]
I'm not a huge fan of blasting one in a public restroom either. Three days a week I have to share exactly two poorly ventilated, unisex bathrooms with a school full of teachers. I don't like pooping their either, mostly because they smell like fucking truck stop bathrooms by the end of the day. Moral of the story - teachers take some mean shits.
I used to abhor shitting in public. I once snuck out of school when all classes were locked down for exams. A bunch of us were finished with our exam, unseasonably warm spring day, open windows. I just jumped out, crept out to my car, drove home, came back home and took a shite.
Driving to Detroit later that year broke me though -- had the shits and had to stop a few times on that 2.5 hour trip.
Now I just shit wherever, man.
I tend to think that certain places have cleaner bathrooms than others but you're not always blessed with that.
buy baby wipes. I can shit anywhere and leave feeling refreshingly clean, if I have baby wipes. Army fieldcraft 101, bring lots of babywipes when away from acceptable toilets.

Any time I can't shit as necessary, I seriously get all claustrophobic feeling to the point of near anxiety. When it's time to go I gotta go.
As someone who suffers from UC and Crohn's Disease I must be nearly 100% prepared to shit anywhere for any amount of time on command. My bowels know no master, and I daresay I fear them. I'd rather touch my ass on some thing that has been touched by many asses, than shit my pants.
