The Ex - Touch and Go 25th Anniversary gig

Video and text taken from http://www.touchandgorecords.com/

All of us here at Touch and Go are very pleased about the ongoing web series of mini-videos about our 25th anniversary birthday bash held last September at the Hideout here in Chicago. Now, for all of you who couldn't make the trek, here's a way (other than all those blurry youtube videos) to check out Big Black's stellar set, David Yow in all his writhing glory, or any of the 29 other bands that rocked thousands of socks off in one glorious weekend.

The series kicked off in January with an overview of the block party and how it came to happen. Now, every single week, we're posting band-specific clips from every set of the weekend. In the weeks and months to come, check back every Monday for a new video from a different act blending live performance and interview footage in commemoration of 25 years of Touch and Go. Trust us - it's worth it

@pazisad it was cold and nasty and the whole weekend was a bit of a marathon. But the vibe coming off of everyone who'd seen the Ex was anything but bored.

the second one is "waiting"

[obsolescenzaprogram]

And please the name of this song? Thanks.

[tmschafer]

they probably were too stunned to do anything. this set was great, I can't believe all the bored looks. then again it was probably 3 in the afternoon and just finished raining...

[NOGOD13]

great band. I saw them in Los Angeles in 2000 I think. They are mind blowing live!

[LukaszPi1]

hey fly, thanks. i'm Piasek if you want to know.

[thatdamnedfly]

the first one is "theme from konono," it's on "turn." the second one is "waiting" it's not on an album yet, i don't think.

[LukaszPi1]
