i like sleater kinney ALOT, but they are by no means my favorite band. however, when asked what the best live show i've ever seen is, i have no choice but to respond with "sleater kinney!!!"
@ice9001. Learn to play guitar before you start a band? It's obvious that both these ladies can play well. Just because they don't do a ton of penis rock shredding like Richie Sambora or some crap doesn't mean they suck. This is fierce and energetic, Just because they don't sound like today's Clear Channel metal doesn't mean it's bad. So what do you like? Nicklesuck, Creed and Theory of a Dumbass?
ahh thank you so much for posting this. i was at this show! i was 13 and it was my first concert. i recorded the whole thing on cassette with a talk boy, but the sound quality in your videos is (obviously) much better!
again, thanks so much! finding this made me happy.
Are there more clips of this show? You can't see my face, but I'm the guy with the slicked black hair jumping up and down next to the blonde that's jumping up at down.
these biches r hot but they need 2 quit makin dam suk ass punk rock shit.punk rocks for lesbins and faget ass biches!whats this dig me out crap?they just need 2 stop playin all this bullshit put down theyre giturs git nekkid and put out!LOL!thatd be reel cool man and gooder than this!
Both Janet Weiss and Carrie Brownstein are tremendously underrated. And Corin Tucker looks like she's ready to whip out a flamethrower. This version's pretty nuts...even faster than the relentless recorded version.
I was blessed to live in Seattle in the mid 1990's and see them play live twice, at the Velvet Elvis and the Crocodile Club there. It is Pat Benetar meets Mudhoney. I have a sense of ownership of a stake in their rock and roll world, vis a vis, if we mention the name "Sleater Kinney" to most people, they wont have a clue what that means, unless they have driven on the actual road in Oregon that sports that name, the one the band named themselves after.
"Pat Benetar meets Mudhoney" really doesn't do them justice, they were miles above Mudhoney and light years ahead of benetar. Wish they were still playing
No. Sleater-Kinney street is in Olympia Wa. Well, I guess Oly-Lacy. If there is a Sleater-Kinny in Oregon it's not the one the band is named after. A lot of the music that happened in the 90's worldwide was spawned from the Evergreen state college in Olympia. The name of the band is homage to that fact.

It always sounded to me that these girls and Fugazi were a logical progression from early veins of punk. It kinda feels a little nostalgic. No?
