Everything Absent or Distorted Tour Diary (sort of)
Everything Absent or DIstorted hit the Northeastern portion of the US of A on tour this past March, and though, they didn’t take great notes on tour, they did take some splendid photos. Here’s to hoping that they do more of these! You can see the rest of their photos over at Donnybrook. EAOD-Japanese War…
The Avett Brothers New Tour Dates
The Avett Brothers will be opening up for Dave Matthews (don’t even front, I know that most of you have an album or two and Two Step is probably one of my all time favorite songs) on their upcoming tour, but they also have a ton of new solo dates below. The Hermanos Avett will…
My Bloody Valentine ::: Fillmore ::: 04.24.09
Hands down, this show was the loudest I have ever been to in my life. Even louder than the White Stripes show I went to in 2003, this show took the cake. My hairs on the back of my neck were trembling because of how loud the show was. I took some pictures that I…
Brightblack Morning Light ::: Fillmore ::: 04.24.09
Would it be too much to ask for the group to set up their tepee on stage, create a campfire, and have a 30 minute improvisational jam? The funny thing is that the last thing did happen, or at least it felt like it. The ganja smoking (hearsay) and peyote swigging (more rumors) Matador alumn…

who’s afraid of swine flu?
Walking around México, D.F. is a little like being an extra in a zombie movie right now; the city of 20+ million feels deserted with almost everything closed up and not even too much traffic. Museums are closed, church services canceled, and the army is at the airport checking people for symptoms. We went out…
Sonic Youth Tour and Pre-Order on UPCOMING LP RELEASE!
Sonic Youth will be releasing their forthcoming album, the Eternal (via Matador June 9th), but if you act now, you can get all kinds of goodies. Oh, and they’re doing an explosive tour too! SONIC YOUTH-Sacred Trickster [mp3] Pre-Order Info: Along with your pre-order of ‘The Eternal’ on LP or CD, you’ll get… – pre-release…
Hall & Oates in Denver!!!!
I still remember that SNL: Behind the Music episode w/Chris Kattan. I feel pretty old, but in all honesty, I couldn’t think of any better duo to grace the Paramount stage in the name of Yacht Rock! I can only imagine the amount of Cougs at this show, kind of like being at Elway’s for…
More Remixes
More remixes, I know, I know. The Royksopp remix is my favorite of the two, but I had to put up the Hockey one because of how hard I’m crushing on them. Hockey | ‘Too Fake’ (Joe & Will Ask? remix) [mp3] Royksopp | ‘Happy Up Here’ (Holy F*** remix) [mp3]
