Just ordered this online at Barnes and Noble. They are selling it for $10 and change, under $9.50 if you have a membership. Shipping is free with any purchase over $25. Should have it by the end of the week!

Here's more: http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/articl...t_id=1003053813 Nickel Creek Going On Hiatus, Just Not Yet August 28, 2006, 11:20 AM ET Katie Hasty, N.Y. Nickel Creek will begin an indefinite hiatus in late 2007, Billboard.com has learned. The bluegrass-leaning trio will remain active on the road up until that point, but will amicably part ways afterward to pursue solo projects. "After seven years straight of touring and three records behind us, it's in our best interest to suspend Nickel Creek by the end of next year," says group member Chris Thile, noting that he and Sara Wat

Also Black Keys on Sept. 12th and the MMJ album late September. Looking forward to the Tweedy DVD. Keeping my fingers crossed for a MMJ fall/winter tour to support the new releases. I can't get enough of this band right now.

You think? I shouldn't have even said anything. He jokes around with/about many of the performers on there, but he usually acknowledges their talent at the same time. With M, there was zero acknowledgement of the performance. He is a comedian, but he's also a talk show host, which means you find a balance between your smart ass comments and being gracious to your guests. That balance wasn't there.

Wish I hadn't seen this. October 31 is going to take forever to get here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GG0Z9mtv5Cw They are also screening it in selected cities: Okonokos (Live Concert Film) will be screened in the following cities on Mischief Night, Monday, October 30th: Boston Seattle Austin San Diego Philadelphia Chicago San Francisco New York Denver Nashville Atlanta Los Angeles Louisville

Letterman kind of annoyed me with his comments. First, making fun of the instrument right as he's getting ready to perform. Then, as he's thanking his guests, he's poking fun at M's name, asking if it stands for Montgomery Ward. I know it's not a big deal, but Letterman just didn't seem to take him very seriously.

Yeah, in a live setting I don't think they are one of those "can't miss" bands. Their appearance on Austin City Limits was the first and only time I saw them live, and it was a definite let down. However, I really dig Chutes Too Narrow and have high hopes for the new one.

Indie rock kingpins the Shins stretch out on their third album, "Wincing the Night Away," due in January via Sub Pop. Save for a handful of backing vocals, the set is completely finished and will be mixed in the coming weeks in Portland, Ore. Frontman James Mercer tells Billboard.com the album will likely feature 10 songs and one short introduction. "Wincing the Night Away" was initially expected this summer, then bumped to October and final

Okay, I'm late to the party, but I have strong feelings on this. The only problem I have with breast feeding is that there is too much peer pressure put on the moms to breast feed their kids. My wife was so stressed that her milk never came in. Our daughter had jaundice and it kept getting worse because she wasn't getting any milk. After about 3 days in a row of taking her to the hospital and watching her scream as they drew blood from her toes to check her levels, I finally put my foot down and told my wife that our daughter needed to eat and she would have to get over the guilt. We sta

I don't know my Bach, but my friend said the song he played is on the Live Duets album he did with Mike Marshall. They didn't play Lighthouse Tale in Peoria either. There are several NC versions of Toxic on youtube worth checking out. I also forgot to mention, they covered Randy Newman's "Short People" in the middle of "House of Tom Bombadil". The song they closed with was off of Thile's upcoming album and I believe it was "Brakeman's Blues". Anyway, it was fantastic.

4th time seeing Nickel Creek and they are better than ever. A very tight 2hr+ show with new arrangements on some of their old songs and covers of "Nice Dream", "Toxic", and "The Weight" (this one in the middle of "The Fox"). Also, while they were fixing a technical issue with a guitar, Chris Thile compared the sound to the beginning of Hail To The Thief and went into an impromptu "2+2=5". During the encore they each played a solo song, including Chris playing Bach on mandolin. For an acoustic band without drums, they absolutely rocked out in parts of the show. They are technically phenom

That sounds logical to me. I usually skip through Two Angels and Martin's Song on Blue Earth and save it for HTH. I think Commonplace Streets might be my favorite on that album. Love the guitar. "This crumpled dollar bill in my back pocket, reminds me I had twenty." Reading this thread is going to lead me into a little Jayhawk binge. It's been awhile.

Tru dat. Saw them perform that one live as well. Lately they've been jamming into "The Weight" during "The Fox". Going to see them Friday night on the Peoria riverfront.

Just googled "covered Radiohead's Just" and came up with this: http://myspace.com/markronson Is that the one?

I've seen Nickel Creek cover it in concert (it was awesome), but I don't think it's them. I heard it in a store the other day, but didn't really pay close attention.

I bought "You Forgot It" awhile back and never got into it. There was a song on there that talked about drinking someones piss , and that vision so turned me off that it overshadowed the rest of the album. I put the album on my ipod at that time, left off the song with the piss, and then sold it to my local indie store. I need to go back and revisit and see if it gets any better for me as a result.

It sucks that they had to shorten it up and couldn't rock it out at the end.

Was actually 31 songs (two number 11's on the MMJ official setlist that Solace posted) and the outro jam to Lovin Cup was Easy Morning Rebel. Concert was a little over 3 hours and absolutely no filler. Only one short encore break, limited talking and band intro's, and none of the self indulgent jamming that is usually the staple of a 3 hr show. For example, the 35 minute song that has each band member taking turns on their instrument for 5 minutes while the other guys rest. None of that here, just straight out rock for 3+ hours. One great moment out of many that stands out, Andrew Bird
