Cool, glad to see this is available now. My band had the pleasure of opening for Rock Plaza Central in Minneapolis last fall. Really nice folks......Chris, John, Don & Fionna are planning to record some horns & strings on a couple songs for our new record. (Hopefully later this month) We sent them the rough mixes, and they're gonna record their parts and send em back. Can't wait to hear how it turns out.

Here's your reminder. Hope to see some of you there!

Ok, sounds good....and I bet we will stop in there. Thanks for letting me know about the store; we're always looking for places like that when we play in other cities...sometimes they're hard to find.

Yeah, I think a month or two ago. at least, I frickin' hope so.

Kickass....I'd love to be able to walk in and just ask for "five bucks worth of each, please".

According to mapquest, the Vic is just 6 minutes away

What time does the PJ show get over? Western Fifth is playing at the Horseshoe BBQ that night....probably sometime between 11-12:00. We're the only band playing, so we'll probably do two sets (or one long one). Oh, and they have dollar beers.

A beer for a fucking QUARTER?? Nice. They do have $1 beers several nights (including Thurs), and I thought that was pretty exciting.

My band (Western Fifth - from Minneapolis) is playing at the Horseshoe BBQ next Thursday night. I don't know much about it, other than it is apparently a "Texas BBQ joint with live music" and typically has country-rock type bands. Any people in the Chicago area know anything about it? also, if you're not too busy attending Lollapalooza, come on by Thursday night.

haha, yeah no shit. Our one song got decent comments, but the other just had one. We had taken the song down right away, but some guy listened to it before the site removed it. He left a pretty nasty (but funny) comment...after checking out the comments he'd left on other songs, I didn't feel to bad.

Red Fizz Anyone ever check out this website? They review & rate unsigned bands, etc. We put a song up there last fall, and got a few decent comments. It's kinda cool, because anyone can sign up to rate, review & comment on songs. Anyway, I just found out our new song is going to be the featured song of the day on Friday (June 8th). Curious how much traffic the site gets. fyi - the new song isn't posted yet, but it is on our myspace page if you're interested (yes, this is the same song I posted here the other day)

hey thanks...yeah, i haven't been out much lately. might check out Grand Ol' day tomorrow though. get ahold of me if yer goin'.

I was the sports editor of my hometown newspaper my senior year of HS (first school-run city newspaper in the nation, actually) I only used a pun once.....our girls BBall team beat the eventual state champion team, who was missing their star player (last name Topp) Girls Basketball: "Flyers beat Topp-less Mustangs" yeah, kinda lame

I expected that response from you...
