we really didnt need another dead photo so in their place is ms johansson.
posting may be sporadic over the next few days. as it turns out my modem is broken at the crib and the earliest comcast can come out to replace it is tuesday. awesome! i wish i had the cash to go buy one but tis not case at this point. seriously, how difficult would it be just to drop off a replacement? it would take like 3 minutes. fuckin comcastic, my ass!
here is the remainder of the dead show from san bernardino
so, the pain has not subsided. the odd thing is is that when i do the yoga poses, thanks tualla, i really feel no pain in my shoulder blade. its when i am sitting, as i am now, that i feel the pinch. its quite obnoxious to say the least.
austin’s black before red creates the type of mood that is sadly missing in my day to day life. that kind of vibe/mood can only be felt by fully engulfing thyself into the eagles’ classic “peaceful easy feeling” or by giving black before red’s awkwardly titled belgrave to kings circle a whirl. they are really nothing like the eagles at all except they give off that cool early 70’s california vibe mixed with the “jacking the ball” era the sea and cake.
my friends over at 75 or less records have released brooklyn’s dynamic duo kaiser cartel’s live from the breakthrough radio ep. if you like your sweet minimalist folkie pop served with a side of sour grapes you should definitely check out kaiser cartel.
live from the breakthrough radio can be purchased via 75 or less records or if you catch them on tour. they play at eddie’s attic in decatur on july 28. check their myspace page for other dates.
its not very often but sometimes i get in the mood to listen to the dead and today i happen to be in the mood. dont know where it comes from, the mood to listen to the dead that is, but i always feel a little better after i do.
here they are playing @ the swing auditorium in san bernardino on feb 27, 1977. this is going to be a 2 post set. the remainder should be posted later tonite.
anyone got a good remedy for what feels to be a pinched nerve in my shoulder blade/upper back? god damn it hurts! i tried stretching it out, putting on flexall, an oil massage from my lady but they only briefly relieved the pain. i guess i will probably just have to wait it out. fuck you 33!
i love lucinda williams and thats all that really needs to be said on the subject. here she is performing in berkeley, ca on 9.26.98 for kfog.
ok, this is the last isbell related post i will put you through for a while. until that time here he is with the 400 unit earlier this year, 4.18, at irving plaza. thanks to jonicont for a wonderful recording! the only issue is that he missed the beginning of “assassin.”

quick note. sloan over at southern shelter, one of the best live music sites on the net, has jason’s show from the 40 watt available for download. of course he played “decoration day” and its magnificent. thats all for now.
you couldnt have asked for a better lineup last night at the earl and in the end it was one of the best shows i have ever been witness to. opener and fellow atlantian, ben trickey’s 45 minute set was stunning in its simplicity. just a man, a guitar and a handful of lovely songs. sadly, ben was only special to the atlanta show, but i definitely cant recommend him enough. justin earle was a huge surprise. not that i expected him to suck, cause i have listened to yuma and its quite good, but i was surprised how engaging he was/is. of course the strength of his set was his songs, which take on new life in a live setting. if yuma was filled with the same life as his live set it would be a totally different recording. the there was the star of the evening, jason isbell backed by his band the 400 unit. not surprisingly he was awesome. my only disappointment was that he failed to play a couple of songs i was really wanting to hear, “decoration day” and “shotgun wedding” to be exact. oh well, other than those two missteps the night was close to perfect. he did bless the crowd with version’s of thin lizzy’s “jailbreak” and the talking heads “psycho killer” which were very cool. he played for just over 2 hours but ended very abruptly with a sonic youth inspired type of guitar feedback freakout. he is touring through the end of august, but only for the next 10 days or so with justin earle but he hooks up with the men of centro-matic in mid august. check his site for upcoming tourdates - the next date is tomorrow in raleigh @ hideaway bbq.
“in a razor town” my favorite track off sirens of the ditch
i have yet to listen to ann arborite, chris bathgate’s debut a cork tale wake but these two tracks are freakin great. very reminiscent of the more haunting richard buckner stuff that can be found on his classic the hill. fans of buckner, okkervil river, and maybe even beruit should take notice for sure.
