Slick Idiot 2009 tour

http://slickidiot.com/

seems like they’re doing at least 2 shows in every state they listed so far… no New york/jersey dates yet though but 3 PA? thankfully they say more are coming.
glad to see that bald head still is going…

on a completely gossipy trashy kinda note, although en has aged rathere well, just putting on a few pounds, gunter really looks like time took it’s toll, rather harshly, on him

with this upcoming slick idiot tour, thrill kill just having toured, etc… you’d think a bunch of these guys would have just put together a package tour and played to bigger venues/crowds… get a bunch of old ex wax trax bands and call it the “was trax” tour or some nonsense *keyword nonsense
seems to have worked for Janes addiction. I mean I absolutely LOVE them and as a fan having the old lineup back is a must see for me, but to the average joe it’s a who gives a shit, but throw in nin and they’re doing sell out shows, on their own it wouldn’t have been so much.
can’t we get this on a smaller scale with a bunch of “industrial” bands?

I’m sure they will play NYC.

Goddamn, am I psyched.

Wonder if En would sign my copy of “Cheesy”?

[laugh]

SI doesn’t play big venues or to bigger crowds because of their lack of popularity. I can see KMFDM doing that or even Ministry/cocks, but SI has very little noteriety, and what credit they do get is mainly very underground. Esch’s work with Mona Mur is probably the “biggest” thing he’s done since leaving KMFDM.

that’s why i said they should get on a bigger joint tour… i’m sure en has lots of friends from his kmfdm days

That would end up with Atkins…

There’s reasons why Sascha can live comfortably and own studios in his home, while esch can’t. And i find it odd that there’s no nyc dates, doesn’t he still sorta live there?

Am I alone in thinking KMFDM and all related projects are a complete waste of time? PIG was alright I suppose. Like a poor man’s JG Thirwell…But certainly not outstanding.

I thought Slick Idiot was Canadian.

Guenter lives in canada, but Esch lives in NYC, or at least used to. Not really sure if he fully moved to berlin or not. But that’s why I find it hard to believe that there’s no ny dates, since i’m sure he still lives there
