Wax Trax! Records Retrospectacle: 33 1/3 Year Anniversary

I meant THURSDAY. So discombobulated in between getting our son off to the world robotics championship in Orlando ( where his team is competing), my own deal and Paul’s deal…it’s rough being me. Still not packed.
Sorry for the “misprint”.

In case ppl don’t know TKK will be there saturday which means 242 will be headlining tomorrow. Who’s gonna make a bet on which night RevCo’s playing other than sunday

Gaddafi’s on his way to Chicago:

It looks like Razor’s Edge was playing on the car stereo.

I have landed. See a few of you later.

Gerda, I’m ecstatic that your son is at the VEX Robotics World Championship!
I will be going to St. Louis later this month to support a different robotics event.

Both of my kids RULE. they’re both mad scientists, in their chosen fields. (can’t imagine it has anything to do with genetics…)

My fucking flight to Chicago, via Dall-ass went the way of bad, three planes, two with mechanical issues, and the third with no guarantee I’d get to Chicago tonight. I could spend the evening in Dallas , courtesy American Airlines. fuck dallas. See you at 11 AM at o’Hare tomato.
(btw, my ride has been alerted. whether or not he can pick me up is cool. I grew up as a city kid, and I don’t care. I have always managed to find my way around. Man.

heh i found a room this morning because i am an organized man.

just saw that “revco” will be playing saturday AND sunday, which sucks since i have to miss sunday. this happened with the chicago ministry farewell shows, where after i had all my plans set they added like a 4th show or something. (although only getting to see one of those shows was a blessing i think, missing time with all my friends who went was not.)

either way, i have a huge rev-boner. also, has anyone mentioned merch? i can’t be arsed to look back and read stuffs.

I knew RevCo and TKK would be playing on the same night. Idk when yall are meeting up but take a shot or chug a whole beer or take a fat bong rip for me

KMFDM set list if anyone cares

Don’t blow your top
Friede
Go To Hell
Leid Und Elend
Achtung!
Juke Joint Jezebel
Flesh
Hot Hole
A Drug Against War
Godlike
Brute

Nice to see they squeezed in one PIG song

Can’t give you a complete setlist but Juke-Joint Jezebel and A Drug Against War were highlights for me.

Partial list from memory:
Don’t Blow Your Top
Go To Hell
(the song in German)
Hot Hole
Flesh
Drug Against War
Godlike
Brute

Damn you guys are quick, faster than I can post on the phone.
And yeah, juke joint jezebel!

Idk that’s kind of a lackluster set list. Some of those songs Idk but then again it was an opening set. And like I said it’s cool they squeezed in one PIG song. But imo the PIG song should’ve been from one of his waxtrax albums

I dunno, I’ve never been a big KMFDM fan, but that set kicked ass!

Heh, that was hilarious when the Rights of the Accused lead singer made fun of the wax trax! crowd for predictably wearing all black. [laugh]

Didn’t get the full 242 setlist, but they played:

Body To Body
Headhunter
Tragedy For You
Lovely Day
Welcome To Paradise
Circling Overland
Quite Unusual
Take One
Punish Your Machine
Religeon
Im Rhythmus Bleiben

Very incomplete and out of order.

How has nobody given a review of the show last night!? Please, those of who could not attend would appreciate a review of the evening.

Needed more Raymond Watts, vocals too low. Possible mixed up mic. Sound dude didn’t have his crap together. Should have had more RW original lyric songs.
F242 sound was great.

Wow KMFDM got the opening band treatment? That’s horrible. I’m wondering if the sets gonna be the same tomorrow. How was the crowd? I saw some pics during KMFDM’s set and just looked like they all stood there

But on a side note I’ve been having mood swings today. I know I wouldn’t be there tonight and last night but I should’ve been leaving today for Chicago but I’m broke. Even kinda upset that I’m missing tonight seeing how I’ve been getting into TKK lately. Sure I’ll catch em on the next tour coming up with 16Volt but the set list may not be wax trax based like it’s been on this east coast tour and the west coast tour last year. Plus I’m missing 2 nights of RevCo and I missed out on a chance to meet Raymond Watts again. This is probably the last time I’m gonna bitch about this but I really hope for those that are there to have an extra good time tonight. Since the prongs meetup is tonight get fucked up and take a huge shot for me, please

So who played the drum on the KMFDM set or was it by a drum machine?

And which was the opening band for the event?

I did read the KMFDM lineup when this thing first got announced. I think his name is Paul Wood. I do know that he’s in Slick Idiot with Esch and Schulz.
