Music in November

Mixing on the new EP goes on behind the scenes. I can reveal that the title will be "Scratchcard Winner." We're hoping to release it December 20th. There will also be a video. Keep your eyes peeled.

Anyway, music:




[Above] Titus Andronicus at The Haymakers Nov 18th

This gig was so great. The venue was so intimate, and the banter was so knowing, that we might have been seeing a friend's band at the local. Titus rocked out like there was no tomorrow. I was so hungover there almost wasn't. If you don't already, please start listening to this band. They won't change your life, at least not if you're over the age of 21, but they will reflect it pretty lucidly. I also got all of them to sign a copy of Henrik Ibsen's John Gabriel Borkman after the show. Now it's going to be preserved for all history in Selwyn College Library. I kicked myself for not bringing the Shakespeare.

Rhodri's been doing this show for a while now. You can find the first run of shows here: http://rhodri.tumblr.com. The show I appeared on (theme: LAND OF THE MIDNIGHT SUN) will be up there soon. It's really worth a listen anyway, especially in the dark.

This was a really slick show; the Manics are old hands and completely in control of what they do up there. British Sea Power came on wearing bits of trees, so they also score highly.

More bedroom-recorded songs to follow soon.
