| Now Find a show to go to! Oct 12 (Mon) - Om, Six Organs of Admittance, Lichens - Institute Of Contemporary Art (ICA), Boston MA + Om With Six Organs of Admittance and Lichens at the ICA on Oct 12[views:5331][posts:25][show listing] ________________________________________ [Sep 26,2009 12:17pm - boblovesmusic ""] Om [img] With Six Organs of Admittance and Lichens Om tours in support of their September release God is Good (Drag City), with their slow, heavy, hypnotic drone-rock. The bass-drums-vocals configuration provides for lumbering, dirge-like soundscapes, which are infused with monastic and Tibetan chanting. Also appearing are Six Organs of Admittance, the musical vehicle of guitarist Ben Chasny, who seems to worship at the altar of John Fahey, and Lichens, Robert Lowe’s immersive weaving of looping wordless vocals into sheets of drone. Monday, October 12, 8 pm TICKETS $16/$19 general admission This should be pretty awesome! |

| ______________________________________ [Oct 3,2009 1:30pm - boblovesmusic ""] I'm bringing my parents to this haha |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 7,2009 10:54am - boblovesmusic ""] bump! |
| ___________________________________________ [Oct 7,2009 10:57am - mikeofdecrepitude ""] Kinda sucks that Chris is no longer the drummer, which gave them that Sleep authenticity. When they performed at the middle east upstairs and wouldn't stop playing, it was the greatest thing I've ever witnessed. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 7,2009 11:04am - boblovesmusic ""] I hope they do something like that at this show haha. |
| ___________________________________________ [Oct 7,2009 11:07am - mikeofdecrepitude ""] Wouldn't put it past them... Al was spurting off some crazy Sufi/mystical wisdom and asking us all if we had pot and to spark that shit up. He also requested a few of us to grab him 3 shoots of vodka. I wasn't going to lose the spot up front, but burning one down in the venue indeed commenced. |
| ___________________________________________ [Oct 7,2009 11:11am - mikeofdecrepitude ""] Totally making a date with my bong, after work, and rocking out to Sleep's Jerusalem and then Om's Conference of the Birds. Thanks Wren! |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 7,2009 11:13am - boblovesmusic ""] my pleasure! |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 11,2009 8:13pm - snip_snap ""] who's going? |
| ___________________________________________ [Oct 11,2009 9:51pm - MikeofDecrepitude ""] I'll probably be there, I'm interested in seeing Emil from Grails, drumming for Om. |
| ________________________________________ [Oct 11,2009 10:53pm - boblovesmusic ""] my parents and I will be there hehe |
| ____________________________________________ [Oct 12,2009 10:11am - MikeofDecrepitude ""] If anyone has drugs that do not include cocaine or uppers and would like to go with me, PM me. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 12,2009 1:24pm - quintessence ""] Is it sold out? I might go mike. |
| ___________________________________________ [Oct 12,2009 1:38pm - mikeofdecrepitude ""] I called the ICA up this morning and got my ticket, so I'm pretty sure they still have tickets. I think the ICA might have a high capacity. |
| ________________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 12:10am - boblovesmusic ""] Super bummed I missed Lichens, but the rest of the show was absolutely killer! |
| ____________________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 12:40am - mikeofdecrepitude ""] At first I was skeptical because this was a seated show, but then Om performed and it was a very atmospheric set. Amazing show, and thanks for the extra couple of bucks, Wren. Their second live record is great, did you pick that up? |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 12:44am - the_reverend ""] they ended already? om sold out. |
| ____________________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 12:58am - mikeofdecrepitude ""] Heh, yeah, Al played by the rules this time. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 13,2009 1:29am - aril ""] Good show. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 1:38am - goatcatalyst ""] How was Six Organs? |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 8:39am - snip_snap ""] lichens was intense! i didnt care for six organs and Om was just Amazing and lichens was playing with them which made it more special. the bathrooms at the ica are pretty awesome. i kept thinking coke heads will LOVE this place. i hope they do more shows! |
| ___________________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 9:22am - mikeofdecrepitude ""] Lichens performance with Om was indeed amazing, he has a powerful voice. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 13,2009 9:39am - boblovesmusic ""] I enjoyed Six Organs, but I can imagine that after Lichens they would be kinda lacking (I missed Lichens cus of stupid traffic from NH) |
