good afternoon all! anyone planning on goin to the echo project fest down here in atlanta? its not actually in atlanta but its just south of the city, in fairburn. i am super psyched cause its literally 3 miles from my crib. if you havent heard about it, it definitely looks like it could be pretty awesome. some the acts include cat power, son volt, flaming lips, phil lesh, clap your hands, spearhead, the roots, rjd2, les claypool, polyphonic spree, man man, and supposedly a shit load more are going to be announced sometime soon. its going on on oct 12 - 14. check the site for details.
anyone hear the new jeremy enigk record, the missing link, as of yet? it comes out tomorrow and i have yet to only hear these tracks, “oh john” and “river to sea” - see the video below. hopefully one of these days i will get to see jeremy live. the time i saw sunny day open up for velocity girl @ the metro way back when still stands as one of the greatest performances i have ever witnessed.

awesome! thanks so much for the show. can’t wait for the new album. revolution…was ok.
yeah, matt i wasnt a huge fan of revolution either. still cant wait either for this one.
First Song is Tennessee Blues. Can’t wait for the new disc. And listening to Revolution brings to mind the old Elton John quote that there are no more protest songs that you can whistle!
