  1. Just stumbled on this recently posted clip of the Small Faces from 1968. Always good to be reminded what a tremendoius band they were.
  2. Looking forward to it. I've also seen The Beths twice before and loved them - might just be my favorite band right now! Seen Liam live a few times and he always puts on a fun and energetic show - particularly when he's doing his solo thing (which I assume he will be this time). I don't see a lot of love for QOTSA on this board but jeez what a terrific live band. Josh Homme is a force of nature and has charisma in spades.
  3. A good run of shows for me. Last Thursday: QOTSA Last night: Todd Rundgren Next Friday: The Beths (Liam Finn opening) Next Saturday: The National (Fleet Foxes opening). And two consective nights of Wilco next month (March 21, 22)
  4. Excellent debut album Treats just released by Australian band Victoria featuring Max Doyle (Songs), Cameron Emerson-Elliott (Yourth Group), Alison Galloway (Smudge) and Patrick Matthews (The Vines, Youth Group).
  5. Tomorrow night - Courtney Marie Andrews.
  6. Saw them last month in Sydney and loved them. Terrific band. Much funkier and jammier than I expected.
  7. A lot of the reviews are saying this is the first time the band has worked with an outside producer since Sky Blue Sky. I assume the reviewers are recycling some crappy press release because Wilco (the Album) was produced by Jim Scott.
  8. Sure enough: Wed 13 March - Princess Theatre: Turrbal Jagera Land, Brisbane Fri 15 March - Canberra Theatre: Ngunnawal, Canberra Sun 17 March - The Forum: Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung, Melbourne Thrs 21 March - Sydney Opera House: Gadigal Land, Sydney https://www.abc.net.au/doublej/music-reads/music-news/wilco-announce-australian-tour-2024-dates-tickets-leah-senior/102841264
  9. Hoping the Japan dates means this is part of Asia Pacific tour and Wilco come down to Australia for the first time in about 10 years!
  10. The Guardian weigh in with a 4 star review. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/aug/31/wilco-review-venerated-band-remain-startlingly-brilliant-alt-rock-greats
  11. For me the band's third album Infinite Arms is their best - an absolute gem. The first two albums Everything All the Time and Cease to Begin are also very good - but I think the quality dropped off after that. Seen them live a couple of times and they are great.
  12. Yes he was a terrific guitar player. Tore it up on stage during Dylan's early electric tours. Who would have thought Garth Hudson would end up the only survivor of the original Band?
