Despite the fact that Mr. Hansen is extremely entertaining live, I think I saw him twice on the Sea Change tour, and I'm not really digging Guero, so I'll probably pass. That being said, if he starts touring with a backing band that is more like his Midnite Vultures touring band (guitar, bass, keys, horns, DJ Swamp), it just might be worth checking out.
WhiteStripes.net has the "Blue Orchid" video up for download. A friend of a friend pointed out how this song totally cops Death from Above 1979, and I think he's right... it's still awesome though. The video features some wierd stop motion effects, when animals attack, and beautiful beautiful Meg eating a plate. Creepy? yes. Excellent? yes. But Jack... Johnny Depp called, he wants his Pirates of the Carribean costume back.
Scenestars is streaming the album. Everybody has mp3's up... except for me.
Ryan Adams is on Letterman this Wednesday night.
Local favourites Book of Lists release the six-song Red Arrows EP on June 7th. Go and buy it.
now playing: Cat Power - I Found a Reason (VU Cover)
