Crime In Stereo last NYC show

Not sure if anyone is into them or if this is old news but Crime In Stereo are playing their last NYC show ever at Europa in Brooklyn on Saturday November 6th.

Anybody in LI nice enough to let me stay at their place for their last last show on the 21st of november? I have to go. I'm trying to go to the brooklyn one too.

this thread should also be about how fucking sweet this band is/was...R.I.P CiS

I'm going to the last show as well. If you can get to NYC from Philly, you can get to LI, the venue is walking distance from the train station.

Thank you, no one was answering me on last.fm. Due to money I can only pick one, but driving/taking the train into LI is always a nightmare. So I might just take the train into brooklyn.

I finally got into them once I Was Trying To Describe... was released. Loved that from the first listen the went back to Is Dead. Wanted more so I got Trouble Stateside. I wish I wasn't so late to the party. There name always got me confused with Death By Stereo who I don't like. Same thing happened with Further Seems Forever and From Autumn To Ashes.

Oh and Sense Field / Senses Fail.

Saw them on Have Heart's last tour, they were great. My roommate got me into them in 08, and I still feel like I am late to the party as well. Sad to see em go.

Also I am in agreement, Death by Stereo blows.

I love this band their full back catalogue is solid. I just wish I saw them play here in england. I saw them support Against Me! in Australia when they where still relatively unknown and apart from about three ausies no one else know who they where so the crowd wasnt into it. Real shame imo they played so fucking well.

Get Explosives and The Will To Use Them and the Contract EP, their best stuff in my opinion. I'm going to miss this band once they are done.

We're all going to hell,
and I mean that in the best possible way.
For the second time in my young life
I put holes in hopes the size of days.
There's a new scene rising through these streets
and it's got more friends than me
so with a hole in my heart the size of a notebook,
I'll let you see through my for free.
We don't sleep around here anymore.....
Don't Sleep. Dream.
scrawled on every gaze from chain link island street corners
from too familiar liquor stores to these cold wrong island shores.
So let's hear it for living your life until you can't anymore.
Like it's always the darkest before dawn
and I was at my darkest for dawn.
But now it's me and luck, best friends and drunk again
and we're all going to hell.
And what I mean to say is that I mean that in the best possible way
So let's hear it for living your whole life until your dead from it.
But it's worth dying on a steady diet of punk rock, alcohol and friends.
So let's hear it for living your whole life like life itself
owes you one more night on the town.
Next time I come around
I'm bringing souvenirs
cause it's pretty clear it's not enough just to write it down.
DON'T SLEEP! DREAM!

Couldn't go to this one and I can't go to the last one either. I heard about it/saw videos. How was it gp?

It was great, they did 2 sets, one was covers of bands they were influenced by and one was their own stuff. They played "for exes" and "terribly softly" which they haven't played for years. I'm going to see the last show too. Will miss this band.

Man, that sounds great. Gotta tell me how the last show goes.

CIS set itself was insane as was the crowd reaction, played for over an hour and half. Last 4 songs were my favorite CIS songs, "Amsterdamned!", "Play It Loud, Fuckers", "For Exes" and "I, stateside" The show itself was a mess, about 150 kids that had tickets couldn’t get in, however CIS are planning on doing another “last” show to make up for all the people who didn’t get in.

man I heard that kids couldn't get in when they had already bought tickets that sucks, glad the show ruled though. when i saw cis they only played for 20 minutes...

Everyone who came from out of state got in. There were people from as far as France there and thankfully they got in. A lot of local kids were turned away but CIS are doing the right thing and doing the make-up show, which I will more than likely attend as well.
