Modest Mouse in Myrtle Beach, SC

March 14th, 2009

so im sure everyone is aware of how much i like modest mouse. so i saw them for the third time last night with my ex girlfriend julianne. i got one of the limited edition photozines from the photograher that has been following them around forever. i also managed to get the set list from the stage thanks to one of the guys that picks up the mess the bands leave. which ill probably frame or something. i also bought the sunburst t shirt in brown(i bought it in baby blue years ago). this one is on american apparel so i know ill wear it way more often. but anyways ill leave you with a picture of the swag.

The best local band ever (that doesnt exist anymore)

January 16th, 2009

After years of searching for this cd, I finally found it. The band is a few years old the cd is from 2004. It’s called Above the Watertowers The band is April Invention. I have never heard them live. I think I listened to them originally on their myspace. But I had brought them up in class one day I had two songs on my iPhone that I took of their myspace (out in the country and god vs. sheep). I ended up getting the cd from someone in my lighting class who knew the band. Now I have my favorite song of theirs, trailer 1999. The whole cd is now on my computer in Apple Lossless. If anyone from the band contacts me and says it’s ok I’ll zip it up and make a torrent to share but it’s not my place to make that call. But this is by far the best local band that you’ll never hear.

Update: you can hear harrisons new project titled Harrison Ray’s Magic Ghost at http://www.myspace.com/670047

modern guilt = classic beck

July 5th, 2008

ok i downloaded the new beck cd titled modern guilt a few days ago, its not out until the 8th. thats why i downloaded it. im gonna buy it as soon as it comes out though. it sounds like beck should sound and i like it. one song does not stand out over another though. but its an overall good album. produced by danger mouse who most people have heard of through his project with cee-lo, gnarles barkley. oh and he also produced the 2005 gorillaz album demon days. i vote you should buy this album on the 8th if you like beck at all. its not disappointing.
