"documentation said that he died in 1985, if you know anything about the intelligence community that does not mean that hes dead" - William Cooper talking aboot the driver in the kennedy assasination.
free masons killed jfk, and now they want to rape you too
Amy Milan maybe? She's the only Amy I can think of right now other than Winehouse.
Along with Virginia, I'd love to hear "Kicked It In The Sun" and their cover of Daniel Johnston's "Some Things Last a Long Time." I actually yelled for them to play the Johnston song last year, like an ass. (yelling for a band to play a cover of your choice at their show is kind of a strange thing to do in hindsight). I yelled "Daniel Johnston!" And some girl to my left somewhere yelled it back, marco polo-like. ....I dunno, I thought that was cool. I don't get out much, see.
Wow, "Fuck Tha Police" huh?
I have mp3s of Doug's covering "Some Things" on his own and a rough bootleg of an acoustic "Car," which ends with Doug asking for requests and a guy in the audience asking "what's that song that goes like "in the morning.... feeling half-right?" and someone answering "In The Morning." "Oh, ok."
I think "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is my fave of the bootleg covers I've heard thus far.
I had "Three Years Ago Today" stuck in my head the majority of last year, actually. There's something about that simple rhythm that is just maddening. "Virginia Reel Around The Fountain" would be awesome. They didn't do it when I saw 'em last time.
I found a bootleg of a show they did... somewhere, I completely forget where that was a good 40% covers. Odd ones at that. Everything from "Imagine" to Macy Gray's "I Try" to Ozzy Osbourne to friggin' "Freebird"... in its entirety, outro solo and all.
They covered Brian Eno's "Third Uncle," which I hadn't heard beforehand, when I saw them. Did they do any covers when you saw them the other night?
Yeah, they were lumped in with the so-called "slowcore" scene in the early-mid 90s. They play very very downtrodden and slow music. They're a band that ironically sounds kinda boring on paper (pitchfork, zine writeups), but in reality is actually quite amazing. Their last album, Drums & Guns was probably my fave of '06. And their live show is absolutely incredible. The moment the lights dimmed and they started playing, it was like they floated 2 feet above the stage and did not come down the entire set. Definately check 'em out. Old school- "Above & Below" Mid- "Sunflowers" Newer- "Violent Past."
Yeah, I saw 'em March '08 in Jax, FL, Actually. They were friggin' phenomenal. They played an amazing, emotionally wrought version of "Nowhere Nothing Fuck-up." I'm gonna try to hang around for a little while this time and at least say hi or something. I get starstruck and freeze pretty easily. I probably could have had dinner with Low one time, but flubbed it. Cheers.
that sucks the ol' hi hat is broken man! My crash cymbal cracked and started doing the wrap around thing so I just peeled that part off and turned it into a "13 instead of 14 inch. :) I can't believe the legal drinking age in Canada is 19 dude, that is so dope! Its 21 over here. SO, Sam has to buy everyones booze, but that seems to work well enough. I hope you can get back to putting out some new material soon man, and hopefully an album! a Skymovies album? When is that coming? I gotta give that District 9 a look man, I have faith in it, but Peter Jackson is like Michael Bay to me. He overproduces shit to the max, and makes HUGE epics which becoming boring after a bit. :/ You should really check out The Devil and Daniel Johnston, about the musician. It follows him from birth until now and shows his bouts with Manic Depressive disorder, etc. Plus, he makes some really good lofi tunes. :)
i actually downloaded it a couple of nights ago! I cant really speak on it yet but it looks promising from what i've seen! :) How have you been as of late my dear canadian friend?
