(Afternoon update: Looking like this will be another JB classic.)
Well, don't you feel good that finally we have nearly official confirmation that .... a) no Stones show here in April ... and b) no second U2 show. Because our life was so taken with the obsession over these things happening ... I think if anything, all it shows is that the RS have good business peeps looking out for them. I mean, why play a town that is broke from being concerted out in a one month period ... especially when you charge RS prices, hey people didn't exactly dig U2 prices for the heaven seats in the Homage to Rust. So everyone get ready for JJ and the KFest ... too bad I'm not going, oh my heart is breaking .... NOTT
Heard a supposed new one of Moz's new one ... I mean, he did say different direction, sounded like Morrissey's version of Kashmir, odd indeed. Actually it was funny because I had DLed the Moz song, but opened up a new one from Built to Spill at the same time ... so I thought the BtS one was the Moz song, which puzzled me b/c it sounded so much like vintage Mossy, maybe they should trade songs?
As my greedy addiction for pods continues, I guess I'm the last to know ... there now is a Mrazcast. Apparently boy wonder is looking for a new guitarist for the band ... and I guess is doing the take in the tapes from every TD&H --- basically lotta stuff from auditions. Kinda interesting because there's a pretty cool takes of familiar Jason tracks. Most of the jibba jabba is boring pointless and stupid, but the music actually has some nice moments ... the outro with the Jodeci cover, who saw that coming?
Also took a listen to Lisa's pod based off her reality series, and it kinda was like listening to news segments on NPR ... it was oddly numbing and ehh. more passion, please.
As a matter of curiosity I checked out the preeminent local metal band's website ... and of course, what would a visit be without listening to their musical offerings, no? Reminded me of the old DRI style ... a crossover style, sometimes called metalcore in the olden days. Like the Simpsons, it's been done before, and ... I'm surprised how TIRED it sounds, I mean, I am really surprised at my adverse reaction to it ... I think that I actually may have liked it in 86 ....haha
