Stereolab Concert

Tonight, David and I went to Stereolab’s concert at the Fillmore. It was the third time I attended a concert from this all time favorite band of mine, and it was the very best of them. The groop seems to have found a new source of militant energy, maybe as a result of the current financial crisis. During the previous concert, May and I asked for Lo Boob Oscillator, without much success. This time around, our favorite song was played, in the original extended version that was part of the Refried Ectoplasm LP (1995). Joy! From the same LP, we also got treated to French Disko played at a very high BPM rate. Then Cybele’s Reverie from Emperor Tomato Ketchup (1996), and Double Rocker from Sound-Dust (2001), among many other very cool tracks. The opening was made by Monade, with lots of tracks from their third LP, Monstre Cosmic. Awesome! Many thanks to David for the ride and for coming along, it was a lot of fun.
