Damn.

Seriously.

I need to move to Austin.  Liked what I saw there and the place holds festivals on a weekly basis, it seems.  And I'd attend just about every one of them.

Nowadays, The Telescopes just means Stephen Lawrie with a backup band doing Telescopes music. They've been playing a lot of shows around the UK for a couple years now. He usually uses a couple different friends of mine bands. Mostly One Unique Signal but occasionally The Fauns. He's even used 93MillionMilesFromTheSun. All great bands. Sort of think it may have a lot to do with where he's playing and which band is closest. One Unique Signal is in London, The Fauns are in Bristol and 93MillionMilesFromTheSun are in Doncaster, though I think 93MMFTS only backed up once and it was in London.

They just had a beer festival.  It didn't go over well.

Yup.  All good reasons not to.  Though Maryland's gov is nothing to be proud of, either.

Yeah, O'Malley doesn't demonize the poor, nor minorities, nor homosexuals and invests in education, infrastructure and the future. What a fucking embarrassment to humanity.

He is not Rick Perry, though.


I would almost take Sarah Palin over Rick Perry. Almost.



The Pines added to tomorrow's Chickfactor show.

He definitely is not.  Which makes him an angel to some, I suppose.   

Back to the show announcements.

Amazed how big these guys are getting. What is driving it...NPR? KEXP? They sound OK, but like so much new stuff it all sounds like a uber-sincere Arcade Fire/Mumford & Sons mashup after a while. It's Bob Boilen's world, we just live in it.

Fillmore's website says

Of Monsters and Men play a free show there next Sat.  4/14

i just saw it up there today.
