they gave out earplugs at the doors... they should’ve given everyone a pair of sunglasses too!

My Bloody Valentine live is a visual and auditory workout! Despite the fact that the band played in my second least favourite concert venue in Toronto last night, their sound was mind-blowing! This is the only time (and probably the last time) that I can say the sound was actually good at the Kool Haus; in fact, it was nearly perfect! "(When You Wake) You're Still In A Dream", "Only Shallow", "You Never Should", and "Nothing Much To Lose" were so loud and so incredible! ...oh and that last song, "You Made Me Realise" + "the holocaust" ...a 25 mins of noise so loud that the ground was shaking the entire time! It felt like a train was passing directly below and thunder striking at the same time... holy crap... what an experience! There are only four My Bloody Valentine shows left, anyone who even has a slight interest in the band or want to experience something ground-breaking should really go to one of the reminding shows!

Sept 27 at Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, IL
Sept 30 at The Concourse in San Francisco, CA

Here’s a recording from a show at ICA in London, England (June 13, 2008) that’s been flowing around the internet:
