A Live Recording Taken From 2/14/02 to 5/15/02 During The Tour They Did With SYSTEM OF A DOWN This Record Does A Good Job Of Showing How Insane A MSI Live Perfomance Can Be!
Having Never Heard MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE I Was Asked To Attend One Of Their Shows By A Friend (ROB KLEINER Of TUB RING Who Was Also Performing)... Being The Good Friend I Am I Conned Another Good Friend Into Driving And We Made The Journey To LOUISVILLE KY.
The Minute We Stepped Into The Venue and Saw The Multitude Of PUNK ROCK CROSS DRESSERS And CATHOLIC SCHOOL GIRL UNIFORM ADORNED FREAKS I Knew We Were In For Something Grand!
After A Long Wait In A CRAM PACKED STANDING ROOM ONLY SWEAT BOX the band Took The STAGE!! Just From The Look They Had I Was Excited... STEVE RIGH? (guitar) was in full on PUNK ROCK BAD ASS GEAR with his tall black Mohawk!.. LYN Z (bass) was in the cute as hell Catholic School Girl Style Uniform.. KITTY (drums) looked like someone strait out of a FLASHDANCE 80s PORN.. and LITTLE JIMMY URINE (vocals) reminded me of a beautiful tower of COTTON CANDY!!!
Go check out the pics in the Party Pics Section!!
I Still Did Not Know What To Expect But Trusting ROB That I'd Like Them Waited Patiently!!!Then It Hit!! They Went Into Their First Song TORNADOE And I Was Hooked!! Pounding Like a Jack Hammer The Beat Is Driven Into Your Head And The Inanity Has Begun!!
I Was So Glad They Gave Me This LIVE CD To Document My Experience!!
The Live CD Is Shorter Than Their Usual Set But Is Still Fucking Awesome!!
You Start Off With TORNADO Which I'm Guessing They Start Most Of Their Shows With... Catchy As Hell And Full Of Energy You'd Almost Expect This Song To Be An END SONG But HELL NO All Their Songs Are Like This!!
Next We Get THANK GOD (one of my favorites) Which Is Only Availabe On the THANK GOD Promo Disc and THIS LIVE CD!!!
TWO HOOKERS Comes Next Kicking You In The TEETH Once Again.. Then We Have REVENGE... GOD does this band EVER breathe..
Finally We Have MOLLY This Song Has A Great GROOVE To IT For All You People Who Want Something A Little Slower.. I said A LITTLE SLOWER I Didn't Say Much Slower...
LIKE SHIT Is Next.. I Love This One..
Then DIABOLICAL
After That We Get LAST GAY SONG Which Starts Off With A Little Bit of URINE's Humor.. You Gotta Love This Guy!!
RIP OFF IS Another FAST PACED MONSTER OF a SONG
Then You Get The Show Stopper.. PANTY SHOT!!!!
Actually Released On The LIVE ALBUM After Years Of Waiting For It!!
You Must Get This CD BUT If You Haven't Heard MSI Yet Go Buy FRANKENSTEIN GIRLS.. Their Second CD First!! You Gotta Prepare Yourself First.. MSI Are Kinda Like... hmmmm.. SYSTEM OF A DOWN On SPEED!!!
A Little Bit Of THE TOADIES STYLE Vocals!! With LOTS OF IN YOUR FACE PUNK ATTITUDE!!! Or Possibly An INDUSTRIAL DEAD KENNEDYS!!! Either Way You'll Love Them!!! GO GET IT DAMMIT!!!!!!!! And IF You Have Any Chance At All To See Them Live DO IT FOR YOUR OWN SAKE!!! Do IT DO IT DO IT DO IT!!! If I Seem A Bit Edgy Or Shakey IT's CAuse I've Been Listening To This CD NON STOP Since They Gave IT TO me!! Actually To tell You How Good It Is! They Gave Me The CLEAN RADIO PRESS PROMO COPY For Review And I Liked IT So Much I Went Out And BOUGHT the UNEDITED VERSION TOO!!! (which has cool LEFT RIGHTS videos on it as well)
PS... Thanks ROB For Inviting Us to The Show I'd Never Had Heard This Beautiful Band If It Weren't For You!!!
