NYLON TV+THURSTON MOORE

[BennyGaberMusic]

Thurston rules

[LadyStardust011]

"talk about idols!" read my mind

[peaceflowersandlove]

SONIC YOUTH

[mikzomatosis]

Thurston is a BAMF.

[iwtlhs112]

I really like his name.

[jing479]

Vinyl sounds better to me, but I listen to a lot more music since the advent of CDs because CDs are more portable.

[Capuano231]

vinyl and cassettes are wicked because you actualy have to listen to the whole album because its such a pain skimming through all the songs. and your hearing what the band actualy wanted you to hear when they first released it. Not a digital remasterd version... and yea if he hates CDs so much why does he make it so hard to buy sonic youth vinyl records.

[pandaknow]

when r u guys gonna make nylon tv+ Lil wayne

[fuckVEVOSgayass]

[checkurbrain]

Thurston was born with a silver spoon, heir of the Moore legacy, he's actually More the 3rd , just a rich man who went into art ,cuz he has no worries he was set

[Chuckjagermeister]

Moore is such a nerd. Yeah, tried selling cassettes on the street for <1 cent a piece and people didn't go for that. The internet is as about as fleeting as the automobile. But really the whole point is enjoying playing music no matter who likes it and who doesn't.

[Mystery13Cat]

i cannot believe that they are in the Guggenheim!!!!!

[playorgans]

I love this dude.

[shannonccw]

Oh Thurston, I love you.

[dangeroftime]

Does anyone know the song at the beginning?

[rinneganpwnsU]

ive always thought about forming a band and doing it the classic way with the cassets and whatnot

[CoralineMattice]

As if Thurston talking about Bowie isn't awesome enough,

I get totally surprised by The Helio Sequence in the background.

Yesssss

[noiseball]

thurston is 50 years old in this video, but looks more like half that - what's his secret?!!

[Johnnyo743]

@noiseball he listens to records not cds

[TheLegitMan93]

Thurston's right... I should start doing that.

[suburbandrone]

"make cassettes and records and sell them at merch tables"

honestly, he's right, it's good advice; but when he doesn't lead the pack in using his own advice, it makes me wonder what his real M.O. is. Who is paying for that lovely mansion in western massachusetts, thurston? oh right, the common fan that has to shell out a ton for all your CDs, tee shirts, DVDs, and concert tix.

[i6wnine]

I don't think they've ever broken even with their records. Most of that money comes from ticket sales and licensing -- NON-DIGITAL!

:P

[MONARCHPROJECT]

Who's paying for it? It's called Lollapalooza i think.

[odh202]

I think he's just saying he likes analog musical formats. I definitely agree that MP3's generally stink sound-wise. The problem with vinyl is it takes up so much room.

[LittleMissBrianna]

Thurston is pure greatness!

[ThurstonProduction]

Mmmmmmm

[nashby12]

whats the song in the backgrond called!

[ZRN959]

superstar

[dudette5555555]

sonic youth kicks butt!! =]

[cammydi]

he kind of makes me think of a new-age andy warhol.

[Paulljz]

My Printer can print the above image on candles, flowers, nails,T-shirts and so on as Christmas gift!!!

[rickybojangles]

cassettes fucking rule!

[TightBros]

bogus fluff interview

[mggimcg]

Agreed.

[surrealevolution]

[vai82]

oh hush arbors, ok

[vai82]

[transttorner]

thurston the best ever mi idolo joder

[aannddrreeaahhh]

thurston+bowie

what else do I need? ^^

[lolipoper69]

cassettes are hard to store, they consume so much space

[iamalena]

lol digital anything is not a passing faze its here to stay.

cassettes on the other hand...

[odh202]

But they still haven't come up with a format with better fidelity than a vinyl record. They've made music more convenient - not better sounding.

[PrincessAspen3]

second ..nylon rocks

[snaps4emma]

love sonic youth
