...to see Magma playing! Attention all Americans, the current best live band  is going to visit your continent this year. This is not confirmed yet but I hope it's going to happen. News from Herve from Magma .... Magma will be playing in Washington, DC on September 26th, 2010, at Le Maison Francaise. Two nights earlier, they will be playing in Wurzburg, Germany, so I hope that they won't be too jet-lagged. http://kohntarkosz.blogspot.com/2010/05/magma-in-washington-dc-september-26.html - http://kohntarkosz.blogspot.com/2010/05/magma-in-washington-dc-september-26.html |

Sweet. Now they just need to make their way to the west coast and we'll be in business. -------------

Good man. If I could afford to travel across the country to see them (if I was rich that is) I would. If they hit any of the adjacent states here I will go, but I am pretty sure they will never come to the west coast. -------------

You never know, I didn't expect them to come to the US at all and yet here's this and, according to one of the comments on the blogpage, possibly one in NYC as well. West coast isn't too much of a stretch once they're already here.

Shh, that was before I knew about them.   And I'm expecting nothing less than the best show of my life, this is the one concert I've really hoped and dreamed I'd get to see at some point. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Salty_Jon" rel="nofollow">

Of course I found out about their last show in NY the day before so I can't go. So I come to Paris for a semester hoping to see them on their home turf. They're playing less than a month after I leave. Of course.

I was hoping you might be referring to the Triton concert in late June, as I thought you might not be aware that they play a concert on June 12 somewhere in the Parisian area. In this case you'll be missing both of them.  I am probably not going to attend any concerts for the rest of this year because of financial difficulties.  But looking at the bright side, I have already seen Magma three times during last April |

I'd love to see Merzbow live, that's got to be an interesting experience. |

Date Posted: July 02 2010 at 16:06

By the way, http://dc-soniccircuits.org/index.php/2010-festival/ - here's the full schedule for the festival . Somehow I find it funny that Merzbow is playing at the French Embassy. I'll probably go, he's playing with an acoustic guitarist so that's cool. I'll just bring earplugs! The Univers Zero/Miriodor show might be cool, except that I've never heard an album from either of them. And a bunch of people I've never heard of are playing at Fairfax, which is only 20 minutes away from me. ------------- if you own a sodastream i hate you |

Why do all the awesome artists not come to west Michigan? And shame on you for not hearing a Univers Zero album. |
Posted By: Henry Plainview
Date Posted: July 02 2010 at 16:25
|
Although I have to say, I didn't see Nels Cline in DC because of volume concerns, so seeing Merzbow might be pretty stupid.
I've heard some UZ, but it was ehhhhh so I never got around to an album. I feel like Art Zoyd does what they do better, and 20th century classical composers do it better still. :P ------------- if you own a sodastream i hate you |

I'm going to go to that UZ + Miriodor show, and that includes buying plane tickets (for a rountrip in the same day) + the tickets for the show, and I'm sure it'll be worth it.
What's nice though, is that Magma will be preceded by The Muffins. That makes my decision harder. ------------- Les mains, les pieds balancés Sur tant de mers, tant de planchers, Un marin mort, Il dormira - Paul Éluard |

| We will definitely be there, both for Magma and UZ+Miriodor. The tickets should be put on sale very soon - the Sonic Circuits website mentioned early July, so it should be a matter of a few days yet. |

Le Masion? Sounds pricey. I'd see Magma for like $25 bucks at the 9:30 Club, but any more than that is too much. I'll just go see Katatonia. -------------

Posted By: Henry Plainview
Date Posted: July 10 2010 at 04:00
Yeah, I really want to know how much the tickets are, but I guess 2 months in advance might be stretching the capabilities of some of these venues. Or they just don't care about updating their website, I don't know. Somehow, however, I think Magma would not go over well with the 9:30 club crowd... ------------- if you own a sodastream i hate you |

Only word I have so far is that Sonic Circuits has mistakenly written "early July" instead of "late December" as they seem to mean.

Since Jon is a jerk, http://dc-soniccircuits.org/index.php/2010-festival/ - here is the ticket information . Magma and Univers Zero is too pricey for me, but I'll probably be at Ashley Paul, Fennesz, and maybe Merzbow depending on my current feelings re: hearing damage, if anybody wants to party with the least interesting man alive. ------------- if you own a sodastream i hate you |

Well yes, it's true that I hadn't considered the fact that the link itself hadn't changed, but it also was good because now it's on this page too! The link should be on every page, since the OP does not have the link and also claims it is unconfirmed. In fact, http://dc-soniccircuits.org/index.php/2010-festival/ - here it is again!

True. Now there are even moooooooore links since I've quoted this. Maybe there should be a topic for the Sonic Circuits festival as a whole, rather than it sort of being discussed slightly in the Magma thread. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Salty_Jon" rel="nofollow">
