REVIEW OF THE MOIST SHOW DEC/4/99
Well lady's and
gents this show was amazing, marked my 10th time seeing Moist, they started
out the night with tangerine there was a little suprise at the start of
the show but i don't want to spoil everyones fun. An interesting
point to this moist show is that i wasn't killed since being front and
center in the pit. All three bands decided to have no crowd surfing,
after the incident where a girl recently broke her neck crowd surfing.
They played stuff from silver, like push, machine punch through, and ofcourse
silver, then they played leave it alone, gasloine, opheila, and ressurection
from creature, i have to give out one goodie and don't read on if you don't
want the fun to be spoilt, they ofcourse played underground, and breathe
and comes and goes, but the highlight of the night was dave playing the
acustic guitar during fish or was it the amusment i get everytime david
flubs on his lyrics Jeff and kevin were in hysterics at some points in
the songs, espeacially machine punch through, but no, dave playing the
acustic was great.. I would have had pix of that being posted but...sadly
the ones with dave playing the guitar arn't going to turn out, me being
the idiot i am exposed my film, thinking it was rewond, i was unexperienced
with the camera it was not my own. Minus that downer it was a very pleasurable
concert, they managed to keep the crowd a roaring no matter what album
they played from, yep those boys who pumped it out to us in 94 live, still
know how to really ripp it up, i am miss nix just telling ya my thoughts,
not yours on this wonderous evening.

WERE NOT EXPOSED I GUESS IT WAS DARK ENOUGH THAT THE FILM DIDN'T GET RECKED*

HOME
Produced by David
Leonard (Barenaked Ladies,
Wide Mouth Mason), "Mercedes
Five And
Dime"
is a more collective and organic
album
than Moist's previous outings. The
members of
Moist have grown
individually and collectively
as songwriters. In the past members
would
bring in riffs and "we'd just jam
on them for a
while". For this record, they all
brought in
songs that were closer to being completed
which
allowed the band to experiment
more with the
arrangements
and the sounds in the studio -
you can here the band having more
fun with the
music. For "Mercedes
Five And Dime", the
band opted to use
more acoustic guitars,
percussion instruments,
synthesizers, loops
and "bells and
whistles". The results are the
instantly catchy first single "Breathe",
the
thematic "Mike
Hammer" and the eclectic
"Fish",
"Mandolin" and "Pleasing
Falsetto".
