I saw them once before, back in 1989 -- opening for the Violent Femmes.
It was the first I'd ever heard of them and, obviously it sparked something in me.
Really looking forward to the show on the 5th.

Rumor had it that the Chicago-based ork-pop band was working on a new record (their first since 2000's A Month Of Sundays). But that was already a couple of years ago.
Has anyone heard anything recently?
I'm listening to that 2000 album now and, as it always does, it's killing me with its beauty.
Anyone?
Kevin Junior, are you out there?
John Stiratt? You played on the last album... you heard anything?

AW yeah.
We heard "Concrete Jungle" on the radio a couple of months ago, and my kids (8 and 6) were in the backseat... ROCKING!!!
Singing along:
"In the concrete jungle.... In the concrete jungle!!!
"Dad, do you have this CD? You need to get it!"
My kids rock.
Hey!!The new version? Are the extras worth the price?
And to respond to this:
If you have The Wilderness Years, no.
If you don't HELL YES!!!

"I Will Always Love You" -- the (original) Dolly Parton version
-
"Oooh Baby Baby" by Smokey Robionson & The Miracles
Motown in the 60's is good for about 90% of mine.

There are too many, but I will pick a few:
"Without You" sung by Harry Nillsson
"Isn't She Lovely?" by Stevie Wonder (yeah, I know it's about a baby, but it's still a love song)
"My Girl" by The Temptations
and, of course:
"H-A-T-R-E-D" by Tonio K.
which is a twisted kind of love song in it's own right.

I love this band.
M.O.T.O. = ""Masters Of The Obvious"
They're from Chicago and play 2- and 3-chord punk songs with hooks that you'll find yourself singing at the most opportune moments:
Walking down the hall of your office:
"You don't have to be a dick about it, dick about it, dick about it!!!!"
Any fans?
They are incessant self-promoters, so I wouldn't be surprised if Paul was here and got himself kicked off the board for pimping himself too much. But the bottom line is that they are insanely great, primitive rock and roll. And Paul Caporino is a twisted genius.
