Sacred Paws - Run Around the Sun

Alessandra Leão - Folio de Santo

My wife and her sister are going to see Dead and Company at Wrigley this weekend. I'm staying home. Happily so.

Wand - Ganglion Reef

Melange - Viento Bravo

Just a playlist that I put together of songs that I was able to dig up from this woefully difficult-to-find band:

Mr. Bungle - Disco Volante Salad Boys - This Is Glue

This was a huge year for me in LIVE music, as I saw some pretty life-changing shows. Violent Femmes/The Pogues/Mojo Nixon at Poplar Creek in Hoffman Estates (Chicago), IL. My first time ever hearing The Pogues. Fishbone at Jesse Hall in Columbia, MO. The Replacements at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago. but the most life-changing show for me was: fIREHOSE/Uncle Tupelo at The Blue Note in Columbia, MO. My first time ever hearing UT, a few months before No Depression was released.

May he now find the peace that he had such a hard time finding in this world.

Melody's Echo Chamber - Bon Voyage

Anyone check any of this out? Would love to hear some thoughts. As I said, it was the best show I have ever been to.

Cate Le Bon - Reward Weyes Blood - Titanic Rising
