Sonic Youth - Shoreline Amphitheater, Mountain View, California, August 18, 1995
Weird times in the summer of 1995! Sonic Youth was facing the Alternative Nation as the headliner of Lollapalooza, sharing a bill that included Beck, Pavement, Cypress Hill, Elastica, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Jesus Lizard and — most notoriously — Hole. Throughout the tour, Courtney Love grabbed the lion's share of the attention thanks to her chaotic antics, both onstage and off.
Lee Ranaldo sets the scene:
"There was this slightly strange pall hanging over the whole tour, like, this is the spawn of Nirvana. . . . For a lot of people in the indie community, there was a bit of ambivalence. People wondered, is this good for our community, that these bands we've come up with are now on this big, high profile tour? Is this the beginning of the end? Or the end of the end?"
Here in Mountain View, we're at the end — of Lollapalooza '95, at least. Following what was an especially crazed/truncated Hole performance, Thurston takes to the mic to dedicate their set to "one of the great hippie punk rock geniuses": the recently departed Jerry Garcia, who had just played Shoreline a few short months later. (Interestingly, former Dead keyboardist Tom Constanten hung out with Sonic Youth backstage this evening at Lolla!) Does SY then break into a Jerry-style "Expressway To Your Heart"?! No, but they do float into a massive "Expressway To Your Skull," joined by Pavement's Stephen Malkmus, howling along on vocals. Incredibly fun.
What follows is equally fun, with the band dipping into the back catalog for excellent renditions of "Mote," "Brother James" and "100%" in addition to a heaping portion of Washing Machine, which wouldn't be released into the wild for a few more weeks. The title track is a motorik marvel, with Steve Shelley surging and soaring, Kim Gordon delivering an impossibly cool/enigmatic vocal.
The peak, of course, is "The Diamond Sea," a nightly ritual that boils over into a seething cauldron of beauteous feedback, stormy clangs and ineffable noise. Is this the end of the end? For some other bands, it might have been ... but it's inspiring to see that even at this midpoint in their career, Sonic Youth was forging forward, making some of the best music of their lives. Time takes its crazy toll ...
