haven't been in touch in ages. but, thought i needed to tell you that i am crazy and i am going to lollapalooza again this year. so, lolla and bumbershoot this year!
You best be coming to our Cervantes show on the 2nd of July or I'll make you listen to "the lost texas ranger" by Chuck Norris over and over and over...
Hey how are you..Hopefully you got a chance to listen. I know alot of kids have myspace on they're phone..don't you wish you could listen to the player on the phone to. I hope they add that feature sometime :)
I have never been to Bumbershoot either. I went to Lolla and Bonnaroo last year. It was quite the musical summer. But, I was actually fairly disappointed in Lolla after being at Bonnaroo because people in Chicago were not nearly as 'nice' and laid back. (Not that I shouldn't have expected that...) Plus, there was a lot more sound interference.
I am hoping that since it's about 50/50 of bands that I want to see that I will be able to see more full sets and get around to see the arts. Plus, I will be in Seattle which beats Chicago any day in my book! Oh, and I agree, I can't wait to see HM, The Long Winters and Modest Mouse...Adrien Xavier should be great too! I still am patiently waiting for Band of Horses.
I just got the Hey Marseilles album and am totally loving it. It makes me happy and hopeful! Outside of Sheryl Crow, I can't wait for Bumbershoot. The line up looks so good right now. I keep hoping Band of Horses will play too. And, Heartless Bastards. I have a slew of other bands that I would love to see there, but I am fairly certain won't - Margot and the Nuclear So and Sos, The Never and Cloud Cult. Music, music!! What are your thoughts on the lineup so far?
You best be comin to my birthday show at Lifespot (in centennial) on the 15th of May, or me and my band will show up at your favorite swimming pool and pea in the water without telling you about it!!! :)
Go ahead and test us, I'll be holding it til the show :)!!!
I am loving Hey Marseilles and can't wait to get their album and see them at Bumbershoot. I love local and 'unfound' music. After I get done writing this story I am working on, I will check out the interview....I just love bringing work home with me.
I already know Hey Marseilles my friend sam is in that band, some of the members are also in another band called Man Down Medic which is really amazing also. but thanks for the look out, i would be glad to hear any other bands you want to recommend im always lookin for great music.
we really dig your sight! you give the spotlight to small unsigned bands that i would have never heard about if it hadn't been for you guys. we would really appreciate it if you gave our music a listen and maybe put it up on the site.
