Who went? I wanted to go but I've been sick as fuck for days and unable to even walk properly. I am pissed that I missed this show, but I would feel a little better if I heard some reviews.
Anyone able to help? - Sun, 17 Oct 2004 4:40pm

I was there.. I guess I didn't get it.. Call me shallow if you will, but I'd say it sounded shallow.. I can't enjoy a band without a bass instrument. I did admire some of the singers comments though: "Let's hear it for.. US!" and to top it off, he was wearing his own band's shirt! Not a lot of bands can say stuff like that and get away with it. Not a lot of bands can have a 70 year old guitarist with a mohawk, flying-v and bubbles glasses either. So yeah, they were funny, that's about all I got out of them.. Enough people seemed to like them though.

I thought "bullets and Octane" were quite enjoyable.. really entertaining, grity rock 'n roll.. - Sun, 17 Oct 2004 11:09pm

Despite the name, the Eagles of Death Metal are not a death metal band. J.Everett Hughes says the name came for a response to a drunken man who argued Poison were death metal. He said that Poison were the Eagles of death metal.

From all accounts on this thread and from people who were there, the studio album slayed their live show. I still would have really liked to have met Jesse "The Devil" Hughes and Dave Catching! I bet those guys have some very entertaining stories to tell. I am told they stayed at The Red Lion Inn. Maybe Brother Goose has a story to tell?
Josh is doing production work in the studio, therefore could not commit to touring.
Just as well... - Fri, 22 Oct 2004 1:42pm

thanks for the ridiculously short show guys. next time you charge 16 bucks for a show, could you put in a little more time? a lot of people were lookin' forward to the show for a good month and were sorely disappointed by the length of the set for the money that was shelled out. boo-urns. sicerely,
everyone i've talked to. - Sun, 24 Oct 2004 3:50am

I wasn't going to reply to this thread, but its starting to annoy me. I am an Eagles of Death Metal fan, and discovered them from their contributions to Desert Sessions Volumes 3 and 4. My opinion of the show is that it they fucking slayed. As far as not playing long enough goes; WTF do you expect when they only have one album out. Fuck, when I saw QOTSA at the Ice House they played a set of equal length; and I don't remember anyone complaining. My guesses are, if any of you people bitching had heard the album a few times before you going to the show, you probably would have had an equally enjoyable experience. Maybe you're not "qualified" to comment. - Sun, 24 Oct 2004 11:21am

Hello,

Saw the show and fuckin' loved it. Although it was short, it was great to hear the tunes I've been loving for the past 6 months finally played live. Shared a couple of joints with J. Devil after the gig and he's a damn cool muhfucka. BTW, both Dave Catching (sometimes guitar for QOTSA) and Joey Castillo (drums QOTSA) were indeed playing. Mr. Hell, sorry you missed the gig. I know how you feel, I had that flu for the whole fucking month of September.

Have a good day all
