listening to the first(?) six tracks of the forthcoming, still-apparently-untitled beck album (and so can you), and noting the setlists from his current tour, make me reconsider how much i would spend to go to his concert on friday. i've bargained with a guy up to $50 apiece for two tickets (haven't heard his response yet; he originally wanted $150 for the pair) (face value is $30, but the show's been sold out since a few days after it went on sale.) i know that beck is a great performer regardless, but these so far i'm not that impressed by these tunes. they're reminiscent of mutations, but not as interesting melodically or lyrically, and they all have the same sort of texture. and it seems like he has barely been playing anything from his two best
