  1. i remember standing in line at backspin records 10 years ago for record store day, then getting inside and it was like walmart on black friday. can't imagine how much worse it's gotten since then. never again will i get up early on a saturday for that shit.
  2. Shakey is a fantastic read for any neil young fan. he's one of my top 3 all time.
  3. it's a countdown, that's the number of days until the next album is released.
  4. in my experience it's more like 50 records per foot comfortably. any more than that and they're really crammed in there.
  5. y'all should listen to this if you haven't
  6. spiritualized at emo's. first off the seat situation at emo's is complete horseshit...the entire front half of the venue is folding chairs, and standing room GA is located behind the soundboard in the back half of the venue. that is very un-emo's and fuck them if that's what they're going to be doing going forward. spiritualized was great. thought the first few songs of the set were actually the best songs of the night, they played 5-6 of their old songs then played the entire new album front to back. would have preferred if they mixed in a few more of the old songs but i'll take what i can get. was hoping for maybe some horns or a string section but it was just the standard band with 3 backup singers. regardless they sounded great and i'm glad i got to see them 1 more time.
  7. cd's will be cool again one day, it just hasn't been long enough. hell, cassette tapes are popular right now.
  8. i'm all about countdown to ecstacy and aja, all their albums are good though. have seen them 3 times, phenomenal live band.
  9. you can order food from the beer line at php
  10. they seem to be one of those bands that only comes through during sxsw, or occasionally opening for someone else. i dig them as well but didn't catch them this year.
  11. frankie and the witch fingers, psychedelic porn crumpets were the 2 highlights for me this year. gymshorts was the best band we accidentally stumbled upon. daikaiju was a hell of a way to close it out last night. wed- wurve, totals, mean jolene thur- kokoko!, ten high, rattlesnake milk, gymshorts, acid carousel fri- meernaa, gymshorts, frankie and the witch fingers, iguana death cult, dead meadow, black mercy, psychedelic porn crumpets, billy king and the bad bad bad sat- faux ferocious, pychedelic porn crumpets, mystery lights, viagra boys, black angels, rookie, datenight, ten high sun- greenbeard, dead meadow, mystery lights, daikaiju

    2019 New Music Thread

    these guys are in town for sxsw and i like their new album quite a bit. has a king gizzard vibe for sure.
  13. southern harmony is my favorite crowes album but wiser time is my favorite song. it always floored me live. that drum beat constantly pushing the song along, the piano, the slide guitar...and then it all comes to a perfect head. great fucking song.
  14. I like Luther but I feel like he didn't fit their sound very well, especially live.
  15. first time i saw them was at stubb's during sxsw 2001, only time i've ever fainted during a concert. wasn't old enough to buy beers at the concert so we got loaded on a bottle of jim beam before the show. smoked a joint about halfway through the set and the next thing i know people are picking me up off the ground. learned the importance of hydration that evening. saw them many times after that, best was probably 2 nights opening for tom petty at red rocks in 2005. marc ford was on fire.
  16. check out showlistaustin or the austin chronicle unofficial event guide for day shows. in general, you shouldn't have a problem getting into any day shows.
  17. took a trip to big bend a couple weeks ago and was all excited to shoot some film...shutter stuck on the very first shot and continued sticking. so i got a bunch of cell phone pics.
  18. 2 nights at RGV, 1 night at black dike, 1 night dominguez spring trailhead, 3 nights at dominguez spring. did a lot of different hikes...pine canyon, dodson trail from juniper canyon to dodson springs, lower burro mesa, santa elena, cattail falls, window trail, fisk canyon, pt. 5168. lots of water was flowing around dominguez spring and in fisk canyon, it was very nice. wildflowers everywhere.
