I'm curious about their NYC support act. I saw them at the knitting factory in NYC previously as well, and really enjoyed The Noodles who were supporting them at the time. I bought up a few Noodles CDs and their DVD after that show.

I wish they were coming to Toronto. I don't know if anyone would appreciate them though. In the past when I used to go to concerts people generally sat on their hands. It is a bit discouraging to groups that come here. I have no idea why the Stones like this place.

I did the same thing. Saw noodles; then bought all their CDs & DVD.

I also had Sawao Yamanaka autograph my "Little Busters" CD.

Shoot! Not performing in L.A.?

I'm sure it'll be good, maybe I could try to go to the Hollywood tour.

I was there as well. Hopefully I can get both Fool on the Planet and the Delicious Bump USA tour DVD (in which I can see myself!) signed.

And yeah... aside from Noodles and Pillows, their support act for the Knitting Factory was laughable. Daddy was almost reasonable, but Male Room was ungodly hilarious (the boxing gloves) and at the same time uncommonly bad. It doesn't look like they have any accompanying acts this time though.

Lucky I got my tickets to the Knitting Factory show weeks ago.

Yes it did sell out. 2 days after the tickets went on sale, in fact. I was oblivious to this and had to beg for tickets the day of the show outside the door.

On another note, is anyone else pissed that it is the same day as the A.F.I. show?

I didn't stay for Male Room (heard they sucked, anyway); but calling Daddy "almost reasonable" is an offense. The lead singer was rude, horrible, and had no reason to be performing with the pillows. Remember we were all going "BOOOOO!!! GET OFF THE STAGE!!!!"? And then they did a Slayer cover so bad that if they were there they would've beaten the crap outta Daddy. Anyways, they should've either had just pillows/noodles or had another band that would've fit right with them in between.

in SF, they played with almost all awesome bands. the only one i didn't especially like was tsushimamire or whatever their name is. the emeralds, petty bookah, noodles and the titan go kings were all great.
