DevO Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Yeah Hamilton they are both in Hongdae. Skunk Hell is right across the road from Club Tool (where we went to see DJ Andy Smith on June 25, 2006.) Actually here's a map: I'd love to have you to my new pad for a pre-beer, either night! Cowboy there will be very little to no scoobies for any of us over here. Speaking of Slackers, any of you fans have any album preferences? I've always been partial to "Wasted Days". Recently I just acquired "An Afternoon In Dub".. All dub, not surprisingly. It's quickly moved up to the #2 spot on my Slackers favourites list.

DevO Posted March 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 (edited) Awesome show last night; another one coming up tonight!! Had a good chat with the singer/keyboardist (Vic somethin) and he expressed his fondness for Toronto and Guelph. Said they loving coming up to Canada and they try to do it at least twice a year. Here's some pics (not mine): Edited March 31, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevO Posted April 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Here's a YouTube video from Friday night.. 2 songs. Saturday night was in a much smaller venue, really packed, and the sound wasn't quite as good as Friday. Good time though nonetheless. Good to see ya there Hamilton!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF-Mr1cm_7E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
