Tuesday 10.30.07: THURSTON MOORE – TREES OUTSIDE THE ACADEMY TOUR @ Echoplex

Thurston Moore

“Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore is one of the coolest dudes alive. He’s heard everything, he knows everyone, and there’s simply no getting around the fact that he’s been an expert witness to just about every major movement in rock music throughout the past thirty years. And rather than rest on his body of work, Thurston continues to push boundaries, continuing to put out great albums with Sonic Youth, engage in various side gigs, and run his record label, Ecstatic Peace.

Moore has a busy summer ahead, and not only due to an expansive tour peppered with performances of Sonic Youth’s 1988 classic Daydream Nation (including one such run-through at our Pitchfork Music Festival). He’s also getting ready for the September 18 release of a solo album on Ecstatic Peace, titled Trees Outside the Academy.” – Pitchfork
