awful news, heard last night and put Darkside on straight away

I saw Bright Eyes play "Digital Ash...", start to finish and I'm seeing Nada Surf play "Let Go" in its entirety at the southbank centre later this month

Oh and I went to Brian Wilsons "Lucky Old Sun" premier

I like them =)

B ) Each member of the band can singlehandedly outperform him and has made better records on their bad days than this guy's best days.

You have clearly never seen Neil Young play live

as did I, good stuff. cool man

what surgery did he have?, His voice is alot better on SBS, I assumed he had maybe had some coaching

His vocals on Cassadaga are amazing, I think Hot Knives is the only one he went a bit goaty. I really liked that album

Wow, after listening all day I really love this record. I like how it sounds like he didnt really put too much effort into it, I don't mean that like its lazy it just sounds very effortless

Hope this is coming out on vinyl

Call Me When I'm Calm is awesome, you sing a little like Pat Sansone and yes the slide part is very George. like it alot

I like it, think his voice sounds really great on a couple tunes...deeper, kind of like Cassadaga but deeper still, Milk Thistle is great

Thats cool man, probably could do with a nice bridge or something. and the Bah bah harmonies were intended to be more Beach Boys then Hanson. oh well.

and thanks alot GtrPlyr!

I always feel like this should go in SST though last time I got shouted at...anyway, set up this new myspace for a tune I've been working on with one of the other guys in my band. It's more drum machine/sample based then anything I've done before but I'm pretty happy with it, would be cool to see what other people think

Much love

I love it so far, Walls and Gamma Ray are my favs

yeah I was really late on noticing he had a new record out, pretty cool that its all still on myspace though

You can stream JVs latest in full at his myspace, seriously if you haven't heard this guy before you are really missing out,

check out 'The Parade' especially

Thanks.

 

I recorded it in Garageband. Acoustic guitar and vocals were recorded with a USB condenser mic. Piano was recorded on my korg keyboard running into my computer and the strings were, unfortunately, not real and played on my keyboard. But I'm glad they sound good enough.

they sound really good, i was sure they were real strings

I really like my bands cover of Becks The Golden Age

I'm digging that, too!

Very nice work. I really enjoy the slide; nice and spacey.

I love the vocal on it, it's incredible, we set up a single 57 and he nailed it first take with the acoustic same take. I put bucketloads of reverb on my guitar to cover mistakes since I've never really tried to play slide before but it came out pretty nice. one of those lovely accidents i think

I am listening, but haven't had a chance to reply, I was really impressed with the violins in the roses cover, listening to 'My Darling' right now, really nice but the guitars are well too loud

I really like my bands cover of Becks The Golden Age

its not the rattle that annoys me, but the hum. I will for sure swap it for a brand new one its just the store wont get them in for 10 days and i was kind of hoping to gig with it on thursday, oh well

fuck, just my luck...serves me right for being impatient I suppose

Just got my new Blues Jr. home from the store and i've noticed it's doing a couple of odd things, at about half volume loud stabs will make the the amp rattle, I have a feeling this may just be the reverb but its hard to tell, but when I crank it almost full whack it makes a kind of moaning hum, is this normal for the volume or is something not right?

It was the last one off the floor anday had been the demo, they told me I could bring it back and swap it for a new one when they came in if I liked, I may do this anyway just to get a boxed one but would rather not have the hassle of going back to the shop

any thoughts?

me and my band are trying to decide the best way to do this too, thanks for posting. hope some people have advice
