evil horn

oh, I'm just whining because they got scheduled against my morning jacket. and u2roolz, thanks for the heads up on the directions thing. yikes. you just made my start time a half hour earlier.

I'm bringing this back up. more excited than ever, now that the ACL show is going to be a big dilemma. ...now having to do it up and back on the same day from nyc. anybody else? that drive home should be fun. will have to make a post-show playlist of rockers. my current burning questions: favorite picnic food? what's this about a line up? / and if so, what time are you lining up? anybody want to toss a frisbee in the park?

57-39-5

and combining the two, you're just asking for trouble.

playing against my morning jacket pretty disappointed in this scheduling all around. lots of conflicts for me. also the white stripes vs. arcade fire. hopefully one of them (mmj or wilco) will play stubbs on friday.

I love them. can't wait to see them again at ACL festival.

I miss puberty.

can somebody do a quick run down of who's who and brief bios of all those different "bands" playing with jeff? I want to hear more stories!

thank you so much!!! can anybody describe the makeup of the backing musicians? see all the fun band names he's playing with... no wait, I'm sure there's a thread, I'll go search now...

wow. good find. hope your checkup went well and that your dentist gave you a lollipop, too.

love the illustration.

caught their show last night at bowery ballroom. damn. it was a sweaty good time. their new album is like crack. as accurately described on its site: "Post-punk bass patterns, spaghetti western guitars, African polyrhythms, spaced out disco and vintage Philly soul" last night's review pretty cool site of theirs

I put on my new t-shirt for a bit yesterday. but haven't unleashed it on the world yet.

I'm so happy to have these. thanks so much.

I've kind of resigned myself to not trying for this show. (umm, but I am willing to trade a pair of Hammerstein GA for a single to Warsaw!) I'll see them two nights in row as I'm doing the northampton and hammerstein... but I'll be taking a morning stroll over to union square to the farmer's market on saturday morning and will stop by the line. if anybody wants anything from the farmer's market, let me know!!!

someone with some photoshop skills needs to put tweedy in that spot.

it's a women's talk show started by Barbara Walters years ago for a woman's point of view. a roundtable of women discussing the hot topics of the day, along with celebrity interviews, and lots of very stereotypical women stuff: bathing suits, diet advice, weepy stories, etc. the current cast is: Barbara Walters Rosie O'Donnell- who I think is good on the show, but she has tremendously large skull. Elizabeth Hasselbeck-reality tv show star, turned backup nfl qb wife, constantly pregnant, republican whipping girl Joy Behar- unfunny comedian who waits until other people start talking so that sh

smack from someone from... ...cleveland. please don't schedule wilco against the white stripes, my morning jacket, or arcade fire.

that last paragraph is exciting.

so super sweet.

here's a little video of that secret nyc show, referred to above... but Piano's is not in Brooklyn, it's on the Lower East Side. http://www.vimeo.com/clip:68570

anybody else there tonight? that was crazy good. I saw them back at one of church shows a few months ago and thought it was a lot of fun, but rough around the edges, you could tell they were figuring things out right there on stage on the new songs. not so tonight, they were just a force of amazing energy. people were just losing their shit. so cool to be in a beautiful room for it. and seats are just a bad idea for their shows (most any good show, I think). Win Butler was encouraging folks to leave their seats and fill the aisles. and people did! and not the best way to see the natio

so I just got a meeting scheduled during the onsale. so bummed. best of luck to everybody.

I haven't heard any. sorry. [ducks.] but let's start some, they're playing letterman next week, why can't we be lucky enough to have them show up somewhere? or who is else is playing that they could sit in on...? I'm seeing spank rock next week, maybe nels will be there. but here's mine: so I hear that on the way to playing some late night gig at the living room or piano's, jeff will be stopping by my east village patio for a bbq and a real quick acoustic performance of a few requests. menu requests, jeff?
