:thurab: Talk about lucky... I am home for two weeks and it just so happened I got to see Swans Wednesday night. It was amazing, and ****ing loud! I'm a huge fan of their older music over their newer stuff (though it's all good) and I was ridiculously happy with the song choices. The sound hit you so hard, Mike and his gang have to be deaf. No ear plugs doing that every ****ing night?
