prepare for your mind to be blown.

unfortunately i think i have a show conflict on that day...i gotta check.

i didn't even realize it was him at first. he was definitely sartorially challenged, as compared to the rest of the band.

ones i will likely get: Kinski: Cosy Moments [Kill Rock Stars] Mudhoney: Vanishing Point [sub Pop] Kurt Vile: Wakin on a Pretty Daze [Matador] (the stream sounds good right now) White Fence: Cyclops Reap [Castle Face] Barn Owl: V [Thrill Jockey] (just ordered, actually) Lilacs & Champagne: Danish and Blue [Mexican Summer] Guided By Voices: English Little League [Fire] The Melvins: Everybody Loves Sausages [ipecac] Come: Eleven : Eleven [Matador] [reissue] Deerhunter: Monomania [4AD] Mikal Cronin: MCII [Merge] Glenn Jones: My Garden State [Thrill Jockey] Black Sabbath: 13 [Vertigo] (shoul

Vest wearin', banjo playin', dreadlocked awfulness right there. A personal hell.

Explosions in the Sky is the poor mans Mogwai.

Nah, they should just take my suggestions.

The Soundtrack Of Our Lives is the poor man's Beatles/Stones/Who/Kinks

style-wise. stylistically. doom: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sO7VP34n2Ps thrash: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxCTVssoddo see the difference?

no doubt that Sabbath deserves all the accolades they get for birthing metal, but stylistically thrash and doom are distant cousins at best. same w/ the Kinks, if distortion is the sole connecting line between them and Sabbath...if you go back to stem cells, then everything is related. Pig Destroyer is the poor man's Liszt.

in the chick dept, some of my favorites: PJ Harvey Barbara Manning Neko Case Chrissie Hynde Mary Rose Crook Holly Golightly and collectively: Electrelane Look Blue Go Purple Warpaint Vivian Girls

Queens on Matador is a move i didn't see coming.

i think you missed the mark by quite a bit on both of these. i think you nailed the bullseye on both of these.

Metallica is the poor man's Slayer

i saw Mastodon play "Emerald" once, which was brilliant.

The National is the poor man's Tindersticks

what record is Petty's _Trans_? or _On The Beach_? and Neil's on at least even footing w/ Dylan.

i remember first seeing The Muses and being astonished at the almost complete lack of cymbals.

^^ i was thinking of that. maybe lump Badfinger in there as well.

oh, and The Mercy Seat was staggering as well.

i did take pics...that was a saga in and of itself. yeah, when he was singing "Deanna" my friend who was next to me captured it on vid...amazing! he was right in front of us on the chair backs. he spent a lot of time over at our side, way more than stage right. in terms of shooting the show, pull up a chair...here's my long-winded diatribe that i posted on my facebook page today from a fan's perspective, last night's Nick Cave show was amazingly awesome. from a photographer's, it was a nightmare. here's the bloody saga...sorry for my weeping (and he did play "The Weeping Song"). 1 - i

John Cafferty and Beaver Brown is the bankrupt man's Bruce Springsteen

Live Skull is (was) the poor man's Sonic Youth

played a few songs from the new one, which as a record is a bit dull but live the songs worked (aside from "Mermaids," which kinda dragged...he opened w/ the 1st track, played "Jubilee Street" and "Higgs Boson Blues" and ended the encore w/ "Push The Sky Away" which actually was a great way to end it. others i remember: deanna red right hand from her to eternity jack the ripper stranger than kindness the weeping song stagger lee into my arms (i think) maybe one or two others...really amazing show, and it being up so close (4th row) made a huge difference. it looked like the people in the
