I like the new disc...some "Syndicate" type sounds and some mellow numbers....Miracle 3 are a pretty good group of musicians and they really compliment Wynn....all in all a bargain at the sale price of $9.99.........I'm sure it will sound very good live at Java...the acoustics and sight lines in that place blow the IOTA outta the water!.......

You think?  I can see the sightlines argument but I like the sound in both.  Opinions vary but mostly I hope that I look snazzy in either venue.  It's all about the lighting!

the dream syndicate were one of the best '80s bands, without a doubt. i still spin days of wine and roses frequently, as well as the medicine show. the live records are all good, and the later studio albums are decent, if not spectacular.
 
 i saw steve wynn a bunch of times in the late '90s, the last time being in 2001 right before 9/11. one of my favorite bands, come, backed him on his 1996 album, melting in the dark, which was fantastic. his live shows are always fun, and he never fails to bust out a few dream syndicate songs.
 
 sadly, i will be managing a show at the warehouse that night, so i'm going to have to skip out this time.

I listened to Wine and Roses several times this weekend to get more familiar with the stuff.  I dig it.  Like a steam shovel.

Sitting in a bar in Mobile, Alabama and what do I see but a signed Dream Syndicate poster over the bar.  It's karma...KARMA!!!
 
 Mobile doesn't really smell very good.

Hey, Pharm:  Nice line-up and not an electrified saucepan or washboard in sight...!!!(unless you and Anthony are planning a special set).  Of course, I remember one night when he "mic'ed" a clog dancer's feet...but I'm guessing that's not on the line-up either.  See you and your beautiful merch girls tomorrow night at JJ.

It's like coming out day at the Hall of Justice.
 
 Or ummm....not like that at all.
 
 Anyway will be great to meet some of you there.  We're really looking forward to the show.

Madame Sushi is talking about our last show at Jammin Java with Marah.  They had jugs and banjoes and pinstriped vests and a trumpet and a harmonica all sortsa junk.  Good band though, really good performers and songwriters.  I dug it.
