are "Northerners" an oblique group that can't be defined by your stated criteria, and require quotation marks?

about 20 years ago a good friend of mine went to Greenland w/ a buddy for about a month, just backpacking and camping and generally wandering around.

0 for 10! i do share your desires, however. esp 2, 5, and 9.

i would substitute 'interesting' with 'good news' magic hat's selections on offer last year were pretty weak, esp after they ran out of only not fruit/beet beer...

should we enlist in the volunteer bucket brigade?

let's all hope that Yim Yames doesn't unleash his version of _An American Prayer_ on us.

"all her favorite fruit" = chills down the spine

i saw two extremely fun non-English singing bands on Sunday, at the ATP that Animal Collective curated, over in Minehead, England. The first was one I'm familiar w/ and have an LP (Group Doueh), and the other I had no idea about (Khaira Arby). both were really fun, great dancing and party music. During Arby's set, a couple of the singer/dancers from Doueh joined on stage for a song or two.

Cracker's a decent band, but imo Camper is way better.

not meant to tread on yr thread. i just happened to see the FB post.

From Wilco's facebook page...2500 to go ATTENTION! If this photo album gets 7,500 Likes by Thursday at 5:00PM EDT, we'll bring back Early Bird Pricing for the Solid Sound Festival, on Friday, for 24 hours.

where are the immersion editions for _Meddle_ or _Obscured By Clouds_?

it's a bit weird that my favorite thing of his was his vocals on a This Kind Of Punishment lp ("The Sleepwalker" from _A Beard Of Bees_)

Fripp on Eno's "Baby's On Fire."

good call on headless chickens. leader Chris Matthews released a damn fine cd a few years ago http://www.discogs.com/Chris-Matthews-Robot-Monkey-Orchestra-The-Map-Of-Love/release/1528678

the thing about tJL, even w/ the noise rock tag, is that they had arguably among the best in music at each of the respective roles... macneilly - monster drummer denison - wildly inventive, could bring all full rawk or play spidery, complex runs sims - played the bass like wrestling a python yow - what more could you ask of a front man?

it's not on youtube, but The Delgados' cover of GBV's "Indian Fables" is a very cool cover.

off the top of my head (faves or bands I've seen): Cardinal Pelican Dodos black blood of the owl swans ducktails barn owl crow (great Australian band of the late 80s/early 90s) Blackbird (the Kinman brothers, post-Rank and File and ex-Dils)

not all birds can fly. plenty of things can fly that are not birds.

that was taken @ ATP...they were doing a vid for Pitchfork TV...melvins and no age did sessions as well.

how about Black Elk? i voted Deerhunter, easily the best of the 3. i've not seen Deer Tick, have seen Deerhoof twice. once from their hotel room window.

how about this version?

Echo and the Bunnymen, playing both _Crocodiles_ and _Heaven Up Here_. the 1st three songs of HuH are unstoppable. i wonder if they'll play the US or UK version of the debut record (ie, will the single "Do It Clean" get played?).
