PopTodd Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Although I will miss Quine's presence, the fact that he's still using, Menck, Leisz, Lloyd, and Julian has me very excited to hear this bad boy. One of the best backing bands in rock today. Nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheMaker Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'll second that, for sure. It's about time we get to hear this! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
froggie Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 didnt he say he was working on a 2nd Under the covers album with Susanna last year? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rusty Shackleford Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Has anybody seen Matthew Sweet on this current tour? He's coming to my neck of the woods next week and I'm on the fence about whether to go. I'm not a huge fan, but I like the "hits" quite a bit and if he's got a good band with him, I'd probably check it out. I've not heard any buzz so far... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Im seeing him on tuesday. I can report back here on wed if it is not too late! BTW here is a pic from his show last week. He really let himself go... http://www.flickr.com/photos/29810714@N05/...ith/2962360921/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 He had a great band when I saw him in '95 or so. Ric Menck on drums, among others. No idea who's playing with him now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 He's gonna play live on the air today at WXRT sometime between now and 12 noon.There's a live stream over there somewhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
m_to_the_c Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Those of you in Chicagoland could help me out with this: is it typical for XRT to advertise Matthew Sweet playing "live on air at noon" and it be 12:44 and he's still not playing? Perhaps this is what I get for trying to tune into 90's promotional concepts in an increasingly digital world... these commercials are killing me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ms. yvon Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 i saw mathew sweet play to promote "under the covers". he's got the pipes, fo sho. and greg leisz played with him then. i'm sure that greg will turn up at the l.a. gig, b/c he's always popping in on shows. don't know if he's part of the touring group, tho. still haven't heard the new record. any word?
