Yes, I've already seen them live twice this year. But goshdarnit, I'm going a third time! Eagles of Death Metal not only have released two of the most fun, crank it up albums in recent memory, but their live show is DIRTY, DIRTY ROCK N' ROLL!

Top that off with a headlining Joan Jett, and you've got a concert that I will be consuming copious amounts of booze at and having myself a damn good time.

Here's EoDM doing an in-store at one of my favorite record stores, Vintage Vinyl.

I just 'got' Bob Dylan.

When I was a teenager, my mom would always insist that I listen to Bob Dylan. She would rave about how witty and lyrical he was. Once upon a time I forced my way through his Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 and I recall the only song I didn't turn a deaf ear to was "Stuck Inside of Mobile..."

However, today at the record store I bought these four albums:

It was an extraordinary whim, I felt compelled to buy them. And after listening to them back to back to...well, I'm only on the third one, but I GET it! I am enlightened. I now completely understand the greatness of Dylan.

My mother isn't alive anymore, but I would still like to say that I'm sorry. You were right. :-)

I just found out they're playing another show in St. Louis later this year, and I couldn't be more excited! Throw in the fact that they'll be at my favorite venue, Blueberry Hill, and I'm sure it'll be a night to remember. We Are Night Sky is topping out at #2 on my best of list so far in '06. Please enjoy this performance of "Stop, I'm Already Dead," the album opener, from their appearance on Henry Rollins' IFC show.
