(photo: _dde ) The Duke University spirit team did some field research @ Broad Ripple High School in Indianapolis ish to get some perspectives on where the REAL David Letterman's roots came from. That way they'd have something to chat with his secretary about after their pre show warm up routines/before performing on the David Letterman's 11:35pm - 12:35am [non]internet/[non]streaming vide...

Just got home from seeing Chicago 10, which was pretty good, apart from the severe and somewhat annoying animation. Otherwise the documentary had some pretty cool archival footage from the anti-war protests of the 1968 democratic convention.. with Alan Ginsberg, Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, bunch of other hippies.Random bit of Abbie Hoffman history:At Woodstock in 1969, Hoffman interrupted The W...

~Music: red buttons in post and comments area.~ The crowd: not too young, not too old, just fine. But I do wish there were more of us there. The Duke Spirit are a solid band of their kind, and they deserve more eyes and ears.~ The band:Noise delicious rock with a fantastic female voice to boot is a good recipe, but yet one that can go wrong on stage on many levels. Luckily, this is not the case...

I can't claim to have stumbled upon raucous, raving, borderline arty Brit alt-rockers The Duke Spirit on my own. Trusted MOGgers including Neill, Anna, goodmusiconly and gympumpkin have been on the case for ages - and they were my ticket in. But I did get majorly buzzed by the band's performance of the track "Lassoo" (from their second and most recent album Neptune) on "The Late Show with David...

A lot of people get Londoners The Duke Spirit mixed up with dreadlocked Rufus Wainwright-a-like Duke Special, which must irk them, since they’ve been carving fairly idiosyncratic, blues-powered garage-rock for four years now.Their debut album, 2005’s Cuts Across The Land, clearly didn’t set many tills ringing because the foursome are releasing the follow-up, Neptune, without the major-label

Hey moggers ... it's been a busy summer at work, and tomorrow at long last I'll be embarking on a week of vacation, followed by two days at the All Points West Music and Arts Festival, and the New York City mog-meet on Sunday, August 10th (info here). If any of you are planning on going to the festival and want to hook up for a show on Friday or Saturday, drop me a mog mail (if I don't get ba...

So I was perusing iTunes for some new music and getting frustrated because I didn't think there was anything worth shelling out the money for when I came across The Duke Spirit. I didn't buy it right away but something kept me going back to it. Lead vocalist Liela Moss has a voice that emulates Ari Up from the Slits as well as PJ Harvey and Emiliana Torrini -- but manages to be much easier to r...

I used to listen to music exclusively on my commute to and from work, but lately I've been listening to a lot of podcasts. While many of these podcasts aren't music related, a few are. It's always fun to discover new-to-me music on my way to work, including this song from today.
