I've seen many a bands play McCarren Pool, the former public pool turned music venue in Brooklyn. So it's a littel disturbing to hear that a decomposed body was fished out of a shed on the premises on Thursday morning. Workers told police of "a foul odor coming from a shed at the pool for months." It was reported that the shed was part of the main entrance at the venue, that is frequented by homeless people. The body is so badly decomposed that the sex couln't even be ... MORE
Wow, I can't believe it's been 2 weeks since the start of Coachella. I was planning to do separate posts about the other great performances I felt were worthy to mention(& hadn't been mentioned much by others of the Coachella crew w/me) but decided to incorporate them into two posts. You're probably sick of hearing about it by now,oh well,too bad, heh. First up, The Breeders were incredibly fun & down to earth Fri. afternoon. The onstage chemistry between Kim & Kelly was... MORE

For those of you that only know "Cannonball" and the debut album, Pod, there was also an interim release, the Safari EP, that's worthy of checking out. Here's a good one from the new album... Enjoy!
I saw the Breeders show last night at Slims and had a blast. The band had a great rapport with each other and the audience. They played a good blend of old & new songs, and did a great job recreating their studio sound. The Deal sisters looked happy and healthy and very at ease. Almost like if they were just jamming in their living room and the audience was watching.
Anyone else go & wanna comment?
I replay an interview I did with Matt Ogborn of the Proper Nouns. They have a cd release show at Cafe Bourbon Street this Friday night, May 2. There are other bands, shows and singles hyped. It's all about the hype.

So, I heard a clip of this on a talk show on the radio on the way back to work from lunch today and I remembered how much the bass line freakin' rocks. The drumsticks on the hi-hat stand aren't too shabby either. Hell, this is just a classic all around.
I'm the last splash.
I do believe this is one of Spike Jonze's first forays into music video as well.
The Breeders will be in Glasgow, in the middle of their next tour, when their new album Mountain Battles hits the streets (April 8th). First, they will wow audiences at Canadian Music Week and SXSW in N. America. Then, a string of UK shows before returning West for Coachella. Ideally, a full N. American tour would follow the Cali music festival which ends the current list of dates on April 25th-27th. The Breeders 2008 Tour Dates: 3-05-08 Toronto, Ontario - Canadian ... MORE
There doesn't seem to be any middle ground on this one. Some absolutely love it, some detest it. I like the minimalist take but the vocal seems too cool/detached.Pod was the debut of The Breeders. Kim Deal (of the Pixies) and Tanya Donnelly (of Throwing Muses) were feeling somewhat stifled in their respective bands and wanted to branch out. They formed the Breeders almost as a goof but soon discovered they had a real chemistry. Though they never made the 'big time' they... MORE
I damn almost forgot it was Sunday, so here we go peoples, and oh by the way yeah a big welcome back if you please for Dale, and his sis, Anna without whom Mog just wouldn't be Mog. Oh yeah, the cover. Probably the best cover of a Beatles song I have heard. Ever. Really. I can hardly believe it myself, what, with all the multitudinous covers of Scrambled Eggs and Something that are floating around out there, but yeah. it is.
Sunday still covers day or wha? Did I miss the boat? Oh well.
Here are The Breeders doing a Guided By Voices song.
