me n alco will be at the Chicago show holding court on who's a massive srupid fuck

[usagi]

just don't step on any piss bottles m8

[ghOsty]

Are those the only dates?! That's not much of a tour...

[sweepstakes]

Seriously? One West Coast date and no East Coast at all? Is this normal for MBM?

[Rubin Farr]

I think their label support, if there is any, has pretty much dried up these days. These might be self funded, or with a SF promoter, so probly expect a laptop tour with the classic video screens they own.

Exclusive 5 track CD EP and new t-shirt available only on this tour.

CANT WAIT TO SNAP THAT FUCKER UP

[dr lopez]

Gonna be goin stag to this one homies- if u wanna hang with d-lo just grab me before I hit the floor. Can't interrupt the dancin!!

[dr lopez]

really really fun show. Felt like time travel to 98

[Rubin Farr]

What was the set list like, did they have the dual screens as usual? Was there a drummer or just laptops? Can you travel back in time and take me with you? LOL

[joew]

couldnt make it, need more details :(

[dr lopez]

set list was mostly "greatest hits" - some I remember:

 

prime audio soup

acid again

second half of book of shadows

i got the fear

radio babylon

God. O. D.

did a great slow groovy version of transmission

she's unreal

sound innovation

 

they also played nocebo from the new skam 12"

 

some others too... was hoping they would segue from she's unreal to asbestos lead asbestos as they do in the album but no dice.

 

visuals were great. just jack and some other guy (not sure who) managing the video and mixers and laptops. just good clean fun.

 

here are some excerpts:

[Rubin Farr]

the "other guy" is Ben Stokes, AKA Dimensional Holophonic Sound, he's been in MBM for almost 20 years now, lol.  He came out of the H-Gun collective of A/V producers in Chicago, and released "The House of God" back in the 90s, among others.  He and Jack also did all of the Tino's Beats releases together.
