Is talking to yourself an early sign of dementia?
Dulli Gets Down (http://www.popmatters.com/music/interviews/dulli-greg-041019.shtml)
First up is the next "proper" Twilight Singers record, which Dulli is comparing to the Afghan Whigs' masterpiece Gentlemen, a record that ironically enough, was preceded by a covers record.
"I think I needed to do Uptown Avondale to get to Gentlemen, what I'm going for now, I need the car tuned up, lubed up and ready to drive a long fucking fast distance."
If She Loves You is a warm-up -- it's scary envisioning what's coming next. Six songs have been tracked already, a title picked, and a December 1st deadline set for completion.
"The one I'm working on now is the most ambitious record I've ever tried to do, in terms of sound, and content and the particular tale I'm weaving this time around," he begins. "It is fucking frightening. It's called Period Rush. I actually read this book called Confederates in the Attic: Dispatches from the Unfinished Civil War, and this guy meets these Civil War re-enactors who describe a feeling called "period rush" which they immerse themselves in another time and culture, and they get high off of it. I'm very fond of minding the past, and I'm basically going to start in the '70s and work my way back to the '30s. It's all original material, but I'll put it to you this way, I've got a veritable music library in my home -- and I'm studying for finals."
Dulli has just returned from Europe, where he finished producing a record by the Italian band After Hours. The Gutter Twins, a side project with Mark Lanegan (whose voice can be heard all over She Loves You), and two proposed covers follow-ups; She Loves Me and She Loves Me Not, the latter of which Dulli says "Will plumb the depths of depravity that even I've never checked out. It's scheduled to be a posthumous release. I do that record the way I want to do it -- it'll kill me."
Add that to a DVD from the last Twilight Singers tour, for which Dulli, "Can't tell you much, cause it's kind of a surprise. It's got a kind of whenever release date...I like to keep things kind of loosey goosey," and the imminent release of the much talked about, shrouded in mystery Amber Headlights; a record recorded in full just after the Afghan Whigs broke up.
Amber Headlights is gonna come out," Dulli promises. "I think I'm probably just going to put it on my site, and sell it to the people who actually want it, instead of going through some sort of major ordeal. It's a fucking cool record. Some of it was songs I had written for the Whigs to play and we never did, but they're done a bit mournfully in this case."

I went to last Friday's show in Cambridge. It was so fuckin' great. Lots of baseball anecdotes, starting with "Sorry about the game" when Greg walked out on stage. (At that point, it was pouring buckets outside and game 3 was postponed.) They played for about 1hr 45 mins with two encores. During the first encore, Greg pulled a woman on stage who proceeded to grind all over him, kiss him and stick her tongue in his ear. :eek:
The DVD was sold at the Philly and Cambridge shows. I bought one, but have yet to watch it, planning to do so tonight. It was taped April 6 at the Southgate House.
