hey all - looking at hitting charlotte (saw them halloween 04 same venue), but I can't seem to find any info about tickets. on the SP site tremont is listed for nov 20, but the ticket presale doesn't list the date, nor does ticketmaster.

what's up with that?

This is typically Tremont treatment. Same thing happened when Mindless Self Indulgence was scheduled to play; it was a while before tickets were on sale. My guess is it's either the promoter being a lazy bastard or the venue trying to be both promoter and host. Basically the go to promoter for Tremont hates using Ticketmaster so they try to find suitable alternatives and my guess is they're coming up short right now.

Nice!
Fucking Skinny Puppy will be in Albuquerque on December 5th!

I'M SO THERE!!!

^^ Actually the Singles Collect you have is probably the one I'm talking about.

Remastered was probably the wrong word to use. However technically when the Singles/B-Sides Collect was released it was given a slight upgrade in quality since I believe at that time the masters had been ripped so many times the quality was kind of low.

I agree completely with your take on the Brap tracks! The vol. 5 release, like I said, is great as far as a live album goes but I think it just doesn't fall in with the rest of Brap volumes. But it was the best option for the band at the time since the Doomsday promoters were close to putting out their own live Skinny Puppy album of that show and that version was seriously going to be shit in terms of quality.

Ain't It Dead Yet was great for the time period it was recorded but compared to now it does lack 'oomph' as you put it. But still the video is worth it just to see Ogre's dancing to Smothered Hope (no white man's disease there). I haven't seen a video of Doomsday so I can't comment on that one but the live DVD of Greater Wrong of the Right is fantastic. It's definitely one of the better live video recordings I've ever seen and if you were at any of the shows, does a good job of taking you back to the experience vicarously; at least in my opinion. I'm still hoping one day Cevin and Morrison will find their footage for the Vivisect - Too Dark Park tours and release it.

Yea the VIVISect VI tour was probably the bloodiest tour in terms of effects and I think it was the tour where Ogre first used his walking stilts that Manson later ripped off in his tours.

I do believe there are some live footage bootlegs of these tours floating around but from what I've gathered in other forums and such the quality is complete poo. I know D.R. Goettel shot a lot of footage for these tours and some of it was included on the Greater Wrong of the Right DVD but it was more behind the scenes stuff than footage of the band performing.

But I'm like you; a professional release of these tours with the new DVD treatments available and I'd totally drop some big bucks for it.

The Charlotte, NC tickets are now on sale in case the people that were asking in this thread haven't been following. The venue website (www.tremontmusichall.com) has a link for them.

^^ I had to laugh at this since I'm pretty sure Ogre mentioned once in some obscure interview how he was basically smacked out of his head the entire time while making Too Dark Park. Not one of my favorites either but definitely not my least favorite; that would have to go to Last Rights.

^ yeah I found out about that!! But the rickshaw's gonna be 19+ until they finish making the bar into another room D:

most likely new album's gonna be called "In Solvent See"

Thanks for the recommendation of the "Greater Wrong of the Right" DVD.

Problem with this dvd is that it has the worst picture quality i have ever seen on a professional dvd release, they compressed a 100 minute show on a single layered dvd (it took up less than 4 GB )

first of all, manson has no original style in music, Brian just made sure the music he had written for his band was of a popular style
secondly, about the myspace link; it sounds just like every other horrible unoriginal goth industrial homemade project

thirdly this has nothing to do with skinny puppy

tour doesn't hit texas until dec but i am already excited! hoping to see them in Houston or Austin.
