I hope you wrote in pencil instead of pen Rhett...

I saw Canyon open for the Pernice Brothers/The Sadies a couple of years ago. They WERE terrible then. Maybe they've improved, or were having an off night, or were just not my thing. The kicker was that they took the place of Spoon on the original bill. What a tripleheader that would have been if the original lineup had stayed intact.

[manimtired]

yes, they have improved. i hadnt seen them live until about a year or so ago and i was impressed.  their first album was not very good, but their new one, empty rooms, is impressive.
 
 a couple of mp3's are at www.canyonrock.com

MARAH! MARAH! MARAH!
 
 Playing in the NE again these days.  Great band.  Have opened at 930 before for Steve Earle. Opening for Drive By Truckers in Philly so they are obviously willing to take that sort of gig.
 
 Guessing that even Rhett likes them.
 
 MARAH! MARAH! MARAH!

I'd vote for the Carlsonics.
 
 And from Dischord, I'd love to see Cap City Dusters or Beauty Pill again.

i'd like to see washington social club again. and metropolitan is always good.

[kosmo vinyl]

a couple more off the wall suggestions... (ok maybe left field suggestions)
 
 Mark Helm (ex radioblue) Great songwriter who I wish did more live gigs
 
 The Kennedys a bit jangly but would great with full band with bassist Steve Hansgen(Minor Threat) on board
 
  Pharmacy Prophets Haven't seen live by am digging the mp3s.
 
 Aden are a bit twee but would dig hearing the rare b-bender guitar they use
 
 It's too bad that Philly's Bigger Lovers are taking the summer off and Mood Elevator Chris is still doing Brendan Benson shows in Europe.

Yes, The Beauty Pill would be a good fit, too!

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

good band, not a good fit with idolwind.

I think Caesars may be back in the area then. What about getting them? They were pretty good and exciting. They've been doing some free promotional shows too so you might be able to get them at a discount.

[twangirl]

You Put-Outs fans will get your wish...They are opening for Idlewild with Laguardia.

[kosmo vinyl]

Great news... It's been awhile since I've seen the Put-Outs lads.  There Replacements inspired bash and pop should be great compliment to Idlewild.
