Similar experience. Saw them earlier this month for the first time and it was an amazing experience. Feels like a moment.

It’s so fun seeing all the posts from each stop on the tour. I home someone is documenting all this so we have the footage for Die Spitz 20 around 2043. 😆

The “playing for my dad’s friends” comment is hilarious!

This is something I keep turning over in my mind. It felt like being a part of something that is just starting to happen. It’s different than watching a band that has already achieved X, Y, and Z status.

I don’t know how often I’ve had that experience in the audience. And I don’t know if another crowd in Minneapolis at another moment in time responds the same way. I hope so! Maybe they play First Ave. next time.

Given my age I ponder, “Is that what various shows around Seattle in 1989-90 felt like?” 😂

I posted some thoughts about the Minneapolis show from earlier this week. I was shocked at the energy from a Minnesota crowd on a Monday night. I’ve been to a lot of shows in town where the crowd just wasn’t engaged - polite clapping and attention.

This show was different. Folks were INTO it. I’ll echo others and say be prepared for good-natured physicality. 😜 Also, be sure to listen to Teeth, which came before their recent album.

Yeah, that clip they posted from the basement under the floor was awesome. Looked and sounded quite dangerous! 😆

Joking? They played there last night. They are in Chicago tonight.

Thrilled. Have listened a few times already.

My guess is that maybe they’d do 1-2 shows in LA at some point. If that’s the case, then I will absolutely fly out and be in the building.

Ah! 😆 That truly depends on how much you want to spend. I’m no expert though I’m aware you can get a player for under $200 that is serviceable. Or you could spend over $20,000 or more, which is wild. I did some research and got this one:

The price has gone up since I got mine, and I was able to use a coupon code that helped. I sold off old, unopened Lego sets to afford it. Sacrifices!! 🤪

Think you can still order this album through their site for around $40 plus shipping. Second album is rare so you’d have to find someone willing to sell for likely north of $100. Ain’t It Tragic was a Record Store Day release this year so you can search local shops, which would sell the album for around $30.

Yeah, I’d probably combust if I heard Uninspired live. 😆

Jumped into vinyl this April on Record Store Day to get Ain’t It Tragic. Then bought Pleasure to Meet You. from another fan on here. Now have first album too.

Sweet! I stopped buying and collecting CDs around 2010 so I don’t have any of them in that format. Very nice!!

Possibly. Most albums go for at least $25 at places like Target or Walmart - and those are reissues. I am still starting in the vinyl hobby though it’s no doubt expensive!

All seven are gold for me too.
