Throbbing Gristle


Recommended Posts

This probably only applies to hardcore fans, but if want to see the band usually credited as the first "industrial" band, here's your chance to see them. Throbbing Gristle is what spawned Pyschic TV [Genesis P-Orridge], Chris & Cosey, and even Coil. Yes, Throbbing Gristle is playing in a church.

OMFG....I JUST SPOOGED IN MY SKIRT...

LOL, I was excited (not NEARLY as excited as Chernobyl), yet grounded by the fact that there is no way I could ever go because of my work schedule. And it's in Chi-town. Boo! I'd love to see 'em live one of these days!

...truth be told..I learned of Throbbing Gristle because a friend of mine hipped me to Genesis as a writer of Metaphysical literature & such things.....& I was certainly not surprised that they are performing in an old church ;) that's GPO for ya'...

I'm figuring out a way to go...

I have the original soundtrack to "In the Shadow of the Sun." I used to be really into Jarman's films, and the soundtracks are great.

I did get to see Psychic TV and Chris and Cosey play shows at St. Andrew's around 1990. But, seeing TG live would be even better.

for those thinking of going you may want to snag tickets soon. the $50 vip and $30 2 day passes both sold out in a couple days and the nyc show sold out already so chicago may not last long either. i'll be driving from ann arbor. cant wait.

I just bought two tickets online today. Yay!

Who ya going with? ;)

I don't know yet. I don't want to go alone, so I bought two tickets. I'm planning on taking a short vacation and staying in Chicago for a few days around that time.

Yeah.. we're thinking about checking out a goth club on Friday.. or an EBM club.. or both. =D

I'd recommend Neo on north clark street. i've spent a lot of time in chicago and always had a great time there on friday's and saturday's (which are both mostly industrial/synthpop/ebm/etc). had the pleasure of djing there as well which was an experience.

I'll be there for a few days, so I might have to check it out as well. Thanks!

    • I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.
