Live At All Tomorrows Parties 2000

by Sonic Youth

supported by

Antonio Vallée I was at this gig, and I recall being appalled by the incoherent noodling. Twenty years later, I realize I was just not listening. This is some of the best stuff SY ever put to tape. Favorite track: J'accuse Ted Hughes (Live).

Ashton Richards If you don't like NYC Ghosts & Flowers you're lame. Favorite track: NYC Ghosts and Flowers (Live).

about

Sonic Youth's first live performance in 2000 and their last as a quartet for some time was a predominately instrumental set at the very first All Tomorrows Parties Festival. Curated by Mogwai, the event took place at Camber Sands Holiday Village in East Sussex, UK, a somewhat charmingly dilapidated summer camp (non-Brits: think Tommy's Holiday Camp). SY opened with a brand new 23-minute sonic assault, "J'Accuse Ted Hughes" (then titled "New Drone" and later to appear as side 1 of SYR 7) and the band performed the bulk of the soon-to-be released "NYC Ghosts & Flowers".
"Free City Rhymes" and "Renegade Princess" were played instrumentally. Kim sang "Nevermind" and "Side2Side", Lee sang "NYC Ghosts & Flowers". The encore was "Lightnin" and "Sunday".
This was the gig that spawned the fabled NME headline "Goodbye 20th Century, Goodbye Talent"!
