sup, homeslices? the family van dyke is preparing for a weekend camping trip in columbia. going to check out the town and partake in their local wares, i hope. hopefully we dig the town, cause i am just awaiting my offer letter now, which hopefully comes on monday. everything is a go as far as i am concerned.

i dont know about you, but i used to love living colour. well, atleast their first two records, anyway. up until this listening to this show from first avenue in lovely minneapolis, i havent probably listened to em, more less thought about em, since probably 1991/1992. but through the power of the internets they have come into my line of sight. going to attempt to re-familiarize myself with vivid and time’s up.
as stated previously, this show is from first ave in minneapolis on 4.5.89.

I liked album 3, Stain from Living Colour as well.
Stoked about the Smog collection, for sure.
Did you hear/like the Gary Louris solo record?
cool, jeff. i am hoping they stand up unlike umm say pretty hate machine.
matt, never listened to stain, or at least i dont remember it. i definitely dig the new louris record. i had an exclusive video a couple months ago. can be found there, down below.

pretty hate machine might not have held up, but The Downwward spiral did.
