Are you going to the Girlfriend tour? Im assuming he's doing it everywhere, but they added more dates in NYC. Cant wait. Will be awesome. I was listening to it yesterday as well :) Good stuff.

Might seem unbelievable, but I'm listening to Matthew Sweet's Girlfriend for the first time today.  I was dumb for not listening to it sooner.

It's tonight at the Birchmere and it's sold out. No worries, I saw it 20 years ago.

I didn't even know it was a thing.  If I did, I probably wouldnt have gone.  I think I've reached my fill of "BAND X plays ALBUM Y in its entirety."  Unless it was "Ween" and "The Pod."

Today feels like a 1986 day:

Bad As Me is terrific. Kinda reminds me a lot of In Rainbows in a roundabout way. While I wouldn't call it his best material, it's a fantastic, relatively concise overview of everything he's good at. Hell Broke Luce is song of the year material.

I really hope he tours. I've never seen him.

Can someone explain the appeal of listening to Tom Waits grunt? The music is marginally interesting, but for me the grunting is just impossible to listen to. He started out as a bit of a singer-songwriter crooner and was pretty decent back in the 70's, but now...no thanks. At least there's a few songs on the new one where he's not grunting.

A good question would be when was the last time Tom Waits played Washington DC? I can't recall him ever playing here... From Google I see he played the Warner Theatre, twice, in late 1987.

Dead Skeletons



Dead Magick

An insanely good album from Iceland that I've been waiting to be released in CD format for a long time.

I'm liking Waits most recent but do not understand the Hell Broke Luce adoration.
