Just Announced Commentary - 2011 Edition

[hutch]

I been listening to a ton of Camper lately... great stuff


I saw Camper open for- wait for it- Cracker, about two years ago at the State Theatre...real good show...

Cracker just got overplayed to death but they're pretty good..Hickman is a heck of a guitarist..I like his flash too...

[Vas Deferens]

just leave after CVB's set.

Expect a report from that one... Marilyn Manson is on my fiance's bucket list and I told her I would take her when he played in the area.

nice! the board's own Lester Bangs...

The Manson show I saw last year in San Diego was one of the best I saw all year. Hilarious, ridiculous, but SO f'in great.

March 25th
R'n'R Hotel

Guess people don't miss these guys as much as slowdive
should be a fun show...but really don't like the blowtel

[hutch]

I just got their cd...

[Rogue Riderhood]

Didnt they play RNRH the last time they came through?  I think at least one shoegaze loving fan on this board was there and told me it wasnt that great.  I would still want to check them out.

what is a CD?

you know...that physical product with liner notes, graphic design and decent sounding music  (mostly..before the brickwalling era)..

I cannot believe you prefer MP3s.. they sound like shit and you get no info or context with them...then again I can .. you listen to music out of a computer speaker..good lord..

Remember I was right about vinyl (for years everyone laughed.....)... and I'll be right about CDs too when all is said and done...

CDs dont' - in general- beat vinyl but they sure beat MP3s....

I guess you also hate reading you know actual paper books...good god

[Dejecty-hatch lııllı|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl]

I still buy plenty of CD's (and a few vinyl platters...that are collecting dust)
But we don't all have rooms of our house dedicated to media, so collecting, storing, then finding the actual media has become quite a challenge.

so why did you ask what a CD is?

 

[hutch]

by the way i didn't like the swervedriver cd..its interesting to see alan moulder produced it.... he did that great ride cd (going blank again)

not going to their show

[Rogue Riderhood]

Which one did you listen to?  they released four albums, not just one.

Mezcal Head is the one I dig the most.

MezcalHead... maybe I'll give it another shot...

[Rogue Riderhood]

Swervedriver weren't ever favorites of mine; I doubt I go this round either.  Plus my hopes are not too high for any upcoming releases... This was one of their recent tunes.  Not really shoegaze enough for my likes.

At least it is better than most of the Bolts of Melody music...

(not horrible, but still not close to great)

[hutch]

still about 30 tickets unsold for Ace Frehley's show...


if James Ford won't come back to tell us that he was right and I was wrong  I don't think he's ever coming back....
