Gibbard.

[killsaly]

Az, so Hand Grenade Job is your new Priests?

[azaghal1981]

Hah


Priests are on a break since Katie is touring with Chain and the Gang whose current lineup is all kinds of fantastic.


But yeah. Trying hard to not miss an HGJ show if I can help it.

Plus, I've never seen Grass Widow and very much want to.

[killsaly]

I might do day two of the fest, ill let you know how Grass Widow are live.

[azaghal1981]

Awesome. I've heard only good things.

[Relaxer]

Is that the Leather that's only released a handful of singles and eps? Because I just love them.

[azaghal1981]

Yes. They are awesome.
I saw them once at DNA Test Fest in 2010 and their set is still fresh in my memory.

[Unsanity]

Leather were pretty awesome live when I saw them with Drunkdriver. The singer ended up flat on the floor writhing around in spit and spilled PBR. Surely made an impression on me.

I'll be at Roky Erickson at the Ottobar on Sunday. I've been a fan forever and have never seen him. Hoping to be surprised but not getting my hopes up too high. I'm also excited The Flying Eyes are opening for him.

He was excellent when I saw him at the Black Cat in 2010-- played almost all old stuff (only a couple of songs from his album with Okkervil River).  I reviewed the show for the Wash Post Express; if you want to read that, it's here.

I saw the show in NY at Webster Hall with Okkervil River a few years ago.  Will see his DC show this monday.

I hope the Charles Street River doesnt cause the U+NFest to get cancelled. (its at Metro Gallery).

[K8teebug]

they were supposed to start fixing it this morning.
