I have seen the light

Last night I saw perhaps the best concert I have ever seen. Hendo Bendo HallofFamers King Khan and BBQ Show played Cake Shop and blew the roof off the basement. Fellow rocknrollers Benn and Alex (not to be confused with the famous CD binder of the same name...) and I got a front row seat for the mayhem. They're mix of 50s rocknroll/r&b ballads with balls out punk rock is not to be missed. It should also be noted that King Khan looks lovely in a dress that is at least 7 sizes too small for him.

It's also worth pointing out that openers Live Fast Die fuckin ruled also.

Brian Glaze

Of all of the musicians/bands currently doing the psych/folk/fuzz thing, Brian Glaze may be one of my favorites. My cousin turned me on to one of his older albums, Let's Go To The Sea, and I've been really enjoying that for the past year. I was down at Other Music the other day with noname, and saw his new release on Birdman Records, Rainsplitter, I had to pick it up. I've got to say that this new release is another classic. The way he layers sounds/swirls is truly amazing. He also has a knack for writing really catchy tunes. Everything has a similar feel to the earlier Brian Jonestown Massacre stuff, who he was a member of at one point. I got to say, I'm not as wild about the drum-machine song 21-31 (the song itself is cool, but the drum machine is grating), but everything else is great. Appearantly, this whole thing was recorded in Greg Ashley's apartment during Thanksgiving of 2005. Thumbs up for sure.
Here's a tune:
Welcome To The Cinema



Also, check out this video of one of my favorite songs from Lets Go to The Sea, "Don't Believe In Love":

Hendo's Song Of The Day

It's a Tuesday morning, and I'm heading in to work early today to take minutes at another meeting. This seemed like an appropriate song for the day.

The Third Bardo - Lose Your Mind

Government Cheese

The Shake
