Very BRMC/J&M Chain....probably fun to see.  Have you listened to the whole album?

I love them. Guiding Light on the new album is a terrific song. Unfortunately, they are playing Baltimore the same night as The Black Keys. But! They are also playing CMJ, so hopefully I will get to see them in NYC.

yes.  The album is less boring than BRMC. (if you think thier cd drags a little.) a fuzzier, more distorted sound and more heavier songs.

Got Haggis?

Icelandic band!
 
 They are also playing Iceland Airwaves at the end of October....with a crapload of other bands.  I was going to go to that until I booked my trip to New Zealand.

They've played the Velvet Lounge a couple of times...I think earlier this year, actually.

Thanks for posting this link.  I've got S.S.'s first album but hadn't heard the new material.  So far I like the song "Guiding Light" the best.  :)
 
 Cheers

Does anyone know if the show this Wednesday at the Mojo Lounge in Baltimore has been cancelled?  It's not listed on their website but it's still on SS's record company website.

Okay, got the official word for you.
 
 "....They are MOST DEFINITELY playing! Our webmaster is having problems with the server our site is on, hence the lack of update.
 
 The other bands are Lion Fever, The Mayan Factor and So I Had To....
 
 Doors at 8p and the first band will go on around 915p....
"
 
 Hope this helps.
 
 Should we start a roll call?

So did anyone make it to this show?  Unfortunately, the fact that it was in Baltimore on a school night with three opening bands proved too daunting an endeavor for me to make the trek.
