The new album is excellent.
Agreed!
He's definitely worth making an effort to see.
... As in traveling to Greece effort? (Not that I have the money for it, but a girl can dream...)
Yeah, we're building a race of frog-people. It's a good time

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Have you seen him before? He's definitely worth making an effort to see.
Oh yes. We saw him on the Murder Ballads tour, which was amazing. In the House O' Reason, the two performers we will automatically purchase tickets for are Nick Cave and Tom Waits. There are other bands *I* will automatically purchase tickets for (Siouxsie, Peter Murphy, MCR), but Pete doesn't really care for live shows.

Who I've seen twice. Probably the only two times he's toured (as opposed to one-off shows) since I became a fan.

Just finishing up the order of my May Flowers playlist. Of my new songs, I think I most like "Oleander" by Sarah Harmer and "The Flowers She Sent And The Flowers She Said She Sent" by The Magnetic Fields. Also, I'm always surprised by how much I like Hole, but there it is. (Thanks again!)

Same here. I will eventually break down and purchase some. But I have such problems getting past The Courtney Love Issues.

Yeah, we've seen Tom Waits once. It was the only time we used a ticket agency (because the tickets sold out two people ahead of where Pete was in line), and it was worth every penny. Third row center seats.

Glad you like the Magnetic Fields song, Megan!

Awesome seats! I saw him on the Frank's Wild Years tour, and the Mule Variations tour. I'm sorry I missed the era when he used to tour the country playing barrooms and clubs.

Well, I like a lot of them, but those two stand out. All now available at a buffistarawk near you...

I'm seeing My Chem on Tuesday. And then again on Friday. I am pretty much delerious.
Tuesday at Electric Factory there is a not too high balcony. The bar is on said balcony and you have to be 21 to go up there. I could probably open up a deck chair and umbrealla.
Friday is Madison Square Garden. And I'm on the floor. ::gulp::

Nick Cave is playing the Hollywood Bowl with Spiritualized and Cat Power. I am so there!
I love Hole and I even love craxy Courtney Love (the solo record she put out a couple of years back was really good). Rock!
