Title: Thats it I'm moving to LA!
Post by: kosmo vinyl on September 10, 2004, 02:37:00 pm
The Dukes Of Silverlake, a Dukes Of Stratosphear cover band, are playing at Spaceland, 1717 Silver Lake Blvd., Los Angeles, on July 27th as part of the International Pop Overthrow festival. They will be performing the 25 O'clock e.p. in all its glory and splendor. The band consists of Matt Mahaffey [of Self], Jason Falkner and various members of The 88. They'll be playing musical chairs throughout the set and no one instrument will be touched by the same hands twice! This truly is a marvel of catastrophic proportions not to be missed! So, if you're an XTC fan or a friend of one, we suggest you crawl out from your rock. THANK YOU. (Watch the video (http://chalkhills.org/misc/tdos/) )

mother of god....
 
 By the way, did anyone notice (i.e., did you notice, Kosmo) that Falkner is credited on Lisa Loeb's new album?  Wonder what his role is/was...

probably working as a hired hand in order to pay the bills... i haven't watched all the footage yet, but on the bonus dvd for air's walkie talkie you can see him playing bass with them.  he also was playing with beck for awhile.  there are reports that he was recording an power trio album with the most hated man in rock paul mccartney.  still looking for further info on that one..

I read that on his website in the forum.  I think it's true, though I can't point to the place to verify it...

Thank you.  That has been bugging me for a while now.  I knew he looked familiar.
