Big thanks to masoo for first bringing this meme to MOG. I could go days doing these things, seriously.

2. Do you play an instrument?
Bass guitar, haltingly. I should fix that.
3. Sing?
Yes, there's even photo... MORE

So a lot of bands have suddenly decided to grace St. Louis with their presence.  I'm not sure that I want to go to all of these (much less have the money needed), so I need your help to decide which ones to go to.  Which bands have you seen?  Were they good live?  Are the ticket prices decent enough?

I can't believe I just found this last week, I'm so ashamed. Apperently its an old recording from the Dave Conway and Tina days. It sounds good. You can really detect some influence from The Birthday Party and maybe some Durutti Column. Though if you're not a fan of rockabilly, don't listen to this as you've probably been listening to the butcher version of the band, and I don't want you to ruin you're expectaions of them. This is the website of the old recording and whe... MORE
