Places Johnny Cash has visited base on his song 'I’ve Been Everywhere'

Anyone remember when The Go played the Black Cat?  They didn't headline and I can't remember who all played that night, possibly the Melvins. I'm trying to figure if Jack White was still in the group at that point, or did he leave after the album "Wathcha Doin' was released.
 
I swear I talked to Jack that night not realizing it was him. I wasn't aware he was with The Go as well as The White Strips since they were also taking off in 1999.   

anyways, I found the couple of albums after "Wathcha Doin" hit or miss, but was listening to their fourth "Howl On The Haunted Beat You Ride" today and it's nice collection of Nuggets inspired 60's psychedelic

TIL that Vacation, the seminal song by the Go-Gos
 was originally released by the bassist in a slightly different version with her first band
 Kathy Valentine was in the Textones in 1980 before joining the Go-Gos

Not as great as Vacation, but you can hear just about everything that makes the one you know a classic

Q: Should I see Dylan Meyerhoff?? I have seen him in like 2004, at I think it was George Mason. My wife has never seen him and is aware of his current "sound".
Q2:I like a lot of his late-era work, how does he deliver live on it at this point?
Q3+: He's doing two nights, is one likely to be better than the other? Is he more likely to be less into a second night, or is it more of a situation that they'll have fully dialed in the sound on night two? (I'm really just trying to avoid an afternoon drive from College Park to Baltimore).
Meyerhoff Q: I assume they don't really have a large A/V setup thus, what sections are the best value for $$$?

Technically this is a re-issue but to lazy to find the thread

This is one for the Sonic Youth completist in your life.. It’s something their UK manager at the time released and was quickly pulled and now seriously sought after and bootlegged.  Sonic Youth are giving it an official release.

Walls Have Ears

https://sonicyouth.bandcamp.com/album/walls-have-ears

“Culled from three 1985 gigs in the UK during a transitional and transcendent time in the band’s story, Sonic Youth’s ‘Walls Have Ears’ appeared as a 2LP set in 1986, not just a live album but an artful tapestry full of live experimentation with songs, between-song tape segues, darkness, humor and audio verité on par with elements of side B of ‘Master Dik’ to come later. With a bit of complexity to the situation of the release itself. Deleted as quickly as it appeared, it’s now issued for the first time officially under the band’s auspices.”

I don’t know any Sonic Youth completists…

No Blur US tour, I'm blaming Biden and therefore will not be voting for him

[Hutch]

I blame Biden for the Beatles breaking up. Therefore I cannot vote for him….

Luckily there are so many other great candidates….

To be fair, Bono assuming everyone in a bar would like him to get up and start singing Christmas carols despite no one asking him to do so very, very, very much tracks.

It’s hard to finish Bono’s autobiography

It’s hard to finish Bono’s autobiography

If you think that’s bad, try any of his songs written in the last thirty years.

I'm just thankful he wasn't singing at Shane's funeral

[Hutch]

It’s easy to slag Bono…he makes it easy…
