I would definitely need a time machine. New York, early 80s, Sonic Youth around their 'Confusion Is Sex' period, Swans at the same time and Glenn Branca to rein them all in. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have any hearing left after that, but...lose some, gain some.

almost exactly the same

i would travel to 1986 and see Swans record the live album Public Castration Is A Good Idea (only i would insist that they squeeze 'Blackout' in the set and end it with an ungodly long version of Time Is Money (Bastard) )....before that would be a hefty Sonic Youth set consisting of songs leading up to and including EVOL....and to open this glorious evening i would want the young insane rantings of David Yow and Scratch Acid...who only have a rather short LP at this time...so i say they could just do the entire album

dankrsta · 10-11-2010, 05:20 PM

^^Wow! Oh and Scratch Acid. Thank you for bringing them up. I haven't heard them in god knows how long. I have to fix that.

Replace Sonic Youth with Foetus and I'd be all over this show.
