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.
Can you get yourself up to Cincy on Friday, May 14? Because Jamie Cullum is playing at this event, and I am *so* there.
Fucking yeah I can come! (That is, as soon as I check on car availability.) How much are tickets?
Jamie fucking Cullum, man! I love him!
Anybody heard of or have an opinion about:
The Baskervilles
Hudson Bell
Brazzaville
The Baskervilles
Heh. Just played them this morning. Decent catchy beatlesque-pop in a poor-man's Elephany 6 sorta way.
"Ballrooms of Mars" is a T.Rex songtitle, btw.
Ah-ha! That's why it sounded familiar.
And the Crüxshadows did a really really cool cover of it. IJS.

Looks like $15, and that's for the whole evening's worth of bands (though the rest are unfamiliar to me, except for -- egad -- REO Speedwagon).
I was listening to NPR this morning and they did a story on the Punk Rock Orchestra and a piece about Franz Wright that included an interview with the lead singer of Unlit and one of Unlit's songs.
Funny article in today's Boston Globe about that Blender "worst song" thing.
Cute piece. Though it does worry me that a music editor has never heard of Marconi.
I'm sure Craig knows but was being flippant. He also asks "what is the mamba?" and then answers his own question.
Sumi - I just linked to the Punk Rock Orchestra piece over in Natter. (Sorry, beyond my abilities to link to that post.) Anyway, I had never heard of Unlit, but I liked what I heard.
