Hi,
Does anyone have any interesting (or boring) Merzbow stories to share on the forum.
Mine is that I sat next to Masami at a bar in Birmingham last time he was over here (just before he played at the Custard Factory) and I bottled out at speaking to him. I was no further that 3 feet way and I didn't say bugger all. I look back and wonder what amusing or interesting comments I should have made to strike up a conversation and to this day I still can't think of what I should have said.
Did anyone else see him at the Custard Factory?

Did anyone else see him at the Custard Factory? Did he actually play that show? Wasnt that the one with the bombscare? From what Ive read, his English isnt the greatest, but you still shoulda said something man! |

Yeah, it might have been the year after? Genesis P. Orridge was due to perform too ( with Merzbow I Think? ), and the whole place had to be evacuated!

I might be wrong because I can't be bothered to check, but wasn't that printed within the CD booklet of Bondage Performance? I have to say that the two bondage Performance CD's are like no other Merzbow CD's. Excellent stuff and you can really imagine the girls being tied and tortured whilst the sounds are being played. Stiring stuff.

Just been in battle for a copy of Paradise Pachinko on eBay. I went up to £80, was winning until the last couple of minutes when it all went nuts.
Went in the end for about £160!Jesus.....

PP has got to be one of the rarest. I have an mp3 of it. For a short while Tochnit aelph (or what ever the label is called) were offering it as a free mp3 download. I have to admit it's not one that I listen to much if that's of any consolation. But what a catch if you had managed to bag it!!!

Thrench In a way Im glad though, cos sitting as the winning bidder at £90 odd quid, I thought " Shit man,thats alot of money for one cd!" Oh well..... Just noticed your profile says female Thrench? I always assumed you were male! ( sorry! ) |
