solace

def her best album by far. stunning

neither Bono nor Neil were there. Bono guested with Arcade Fire in Ireland on Friday night. nah. the S/T was actually pretty decent for the most part. Backspacer sucked besides 3-4 songs. Ole is just uber cheesy

i gave him a high-five on my way out of the photo pit after The Strokes, your buddy wasn't lying that he was there anyway anywho, Ole is no bueno

:/

decent song, but a bit uneventful/dull for our first taste of new music in 4 years...

i'd prolly give the album like a 6.5 on the Pfork scale myself

besides 3-4 songs i haven't been able to get into the album (that first song is especially cringeworthy), but saw them play an acoustic in-store as a 3-piece that was pretty decent, but their set opening for Iron & Wine was pretty damn great.

clear pink 7" pre-order available now (comes w/ immediate download): http://www.polyvinyl...dex.php?id=1903 or you can buy the mp3s as well The Raccoonists = Spencer & Sammy + Jeff Jeff sings lead on both songs listen to the 'Own it'

ah, sweet. thanks!

you mean iPhone push notifications? if so, no. those require a more expensive/perpetual IPB license.

Journey / Foreigner / Night Ranger! haha photographing it... def not paying for it

is there an update for it?

you've probably also noticed that the URL for the forum has been changed from http://forums.viachicago.org to just http://viachicago.org. there's a few reasons i decided to go this route, but i think it makes more sense honestly, since the forum IS Via at this point. so update your bookmarks!

seemed to have gone smoothly. hopefully people aren't TOO confused by everything :/ honestly i like the changes quite a bit though, i've been looking forward to it since the betas. we're not on the new server JUST yet... running into some issues with regards to that, but hopefully soon.

really? i've noticed their mobile app to be slower than Rdio for me... maybe it's because of iOS5 beta tho

ah... was just saying i don't think 95-100 minutes is exactly a "short" set

J. played over 90 minutes here in Minneapolis Thumb Listen To Me Several Shades Of Why Circle Of Friends (Edie Brickell) Ocean In The Way Get Me Not The Same Not Enough (w/Kurt Vile) Make It Right (w/Kurt Vile) Ammaring Flying Cloud Can I Not You Again Is It Done Quest (Encore) The Wagon (Encore) Little Furry Things (Encore)

f'n LOVE that album. sadly i didn't take to their 2nd one nearly as much and i don't think i even heard their 3rd :/

unfortunately i think that is the case... i'm handing over the reigns to Via for the most part and i don't know that it'll be sustainable to keep hosting something that gets so little use. but i def understand people would like an archived version for reading

i love it too, but i'll admit i grew a bit tired of it after a month... plus i've heard so so things about their live show :/ (seeing The Rosebuds & Other Lives the night they're here in a few weeks)

unfortunately due to licensing issues with Invision Power Board i was unable to move it to this new server a while back... i have a backup from last year sometime i believe that I might be able to put up for archival purposes (haven't been able to put up the Via archives either since the switch, but those will come in time)
