The Melvins play Bullhead and Stoner Witch in its entirity

I have been one of the biggest Melvins fans ever since I heard them 17 yrs ago. I have tried my best to make it to every one of their shows since then, I have drivin to Austin a number of times to see them perform, even to see members perform with other bands like Shrinebuilder. So naturally when I heard they were playing a two night double set there I was stoked! As much as I wanted to go to both shows, I could only pick one night, and since I had seen them perform HOUDINI for the 25 yr anniversary show, I chose to see them on Saturday night when they would be playing BULLHEAD and STONER WITCH. 
    When my BF and I arrived, we parked the car and proceeded to walk towards the venue. we were early, so we got to stand on the sidewalk and listen to them do soundcheck..playing entire songs. We decided to walk down the street to grab a bite to eat real fast, as we walked we could still hear them...it was amazing how loud it was, it followed us 3 blocks down!  

   When back at the venue we got in quick and scored the best place we could stand to watch, on the balcony looking over the crowd with an aerial view of the band. As we waited for the band to take stage, the cool air blew  and the sun was setting, life couldnt have been more perfect at this moment. Of course every song sounded amazing and amazing to watch! Dale and Coady are so in tune with each other, it ws truly mind blowing...how did Coady learn the entire Melvins catalog so fast?! Dale Crover once told me " I met satan at the crossroads and sold my soul for a BBQ sandwich." I believe this may be true for Coady Willis too! Thank you Melvins for never giving up and over coming all obstacles to continue making badass music, and playing such amazing shows.
