Keep checking back as they've been adding new dates. Look at the gaps in dates. Last year they did Canada a little in the spring and October/November.

Oh, definitely The Boatmans Call and No More Shall we Part. Both amazing albums, and IMO better than the new ones, even though they are great. Iäm new to cave myself, and I understand his evolution has been the standard punk-rock-to-wise-mellow-guy so I suppose the further back you go the mor rock it will be. Of course, Murder Ballads, if your stomach can take it...

"People ain't no good" on the Boatmans Call is just the saddest song ...ever. No matter how depressed you feel, this one is sure to make you feel a little better.

It's actually an old one (their first, 1997). There's also a remix of this album (1999) called Von Brigdi.

To answer for Bruce... it's OK. Not as good as the last two previous full-length LPs, but still some interesting sounds on it. It's more "abrasive" than Ágætis byrjun or ( )...

~fff

thanks for clearing that up, dan!
i dont much like abrasive unless it's really, really experimental.
thank you.

Coldplay A Rush of Blood to the Head

found it for $9.99 (CDN).

Jude's rare-ish You're So Hot I Love You EP...

~fff

Float Away With The Friday Night Gods -- Marah

Two bucks, plus two-and-a-half shipping, on eBay.

After a first listen, I'm not 100% sure it's worth a lot more than that, but a first listen is, after all, only a first listen.

Joanna Newsom - The Milk-Eyed Mender
Deerhoof - Milk Man (!)
Fiery Furnaces - EP
Iron & Wine - Woman King
Doves - Some Cities
The Frames - Burn the Maps

Almost forgot ... the new Wilco (can't quite get into it so far) and a rerelease of Three Feet High and Rising by De La Soul.

The latter is a sorely underappreciated work of art -- I mean, they sample Hall & Oates' I Can't Go For That.

Genius.

Found a bunch of used Led Zepplin the other day...$6 each. Someone was purching a collection! Lucky me.

Norah Jones -- Come Away With Me
Josh Ritter -- Hello Starling

Map - Teaching Turtles to Fly
Norah Jones - Come Away With Me
Zilch - Platinum

Today's purchases:

Amy Ray -- Prom

Chali 2Na's indie debut, Fish Market. He's the bass rapper from Jurassic 5. His full-length, major label debut comes out in 2005, allegedly.

Jimmy Eat World, Futures.

Reviving a cool thread....

Portishead - Dummy

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Nocturama

now ...

How do you like Cold Roses? I've enjoyed the 2nd disc more than the first so far...but that was listening with the kids running around the house.

I love this thread and keep forgetting it! Sorry for not answering, d! Thanks for answering, Dan!

Last night I went and got:

Spoon - Gimme Fiction w/ bonus CD
Eels - Blinking Lights and Other Revelations 2xCD
The Raveonettes - Pretty In Black w/ bonus

I bought Ohio at CST...how did I go so long without this album??

Also: Doves Some Cities-- I cannot recommend this album enough.

Ryan Adams - Cold Roses (also liking 2nd disc better)
Aimee Mann - The Forgotten Arm

and, though not purchased:

Sufjan Stevens - Come On, Feel the Illinoise

(Sam, agreed on the greatness of the Doves album--I didn't like it at first, but I suddenly can't get enough of it)

Sorry Steve, just saw this. Listened twice so far, I like both discs pretty well. Just been invited to see him in Philly this Friday, pondering whether to take half a day off to drive down there...

I'm also very impressed with how he enlisted Jerry Garcia to play on this album, Jerry being dead and all.

My most recent purchase consisted of:

Aterciopelados - Con El Corazon En La Mano
Bebel Gilberto - Bebel Gilberto
Jolie Holland - Catalpa
The Nortec Collective - Tijuana Sessons, Vol. 1

Ah, Jolie Holland. Great stuff.

This morning I went into town to enjoy the sun, strolled down the rummage sale / antique market and bought an "The Best of" LP of Leonard Cohen.

Last week I went to the CD presentation of a small but promising Dutch band called "Brown Feather Sparrow". I think all you guys should take a look at their website. There are some mp3's for download. I think people that like OtR will also like their music.
Off course I immediately bought the CD.

But on the same day my order from Paste came and I received "Changes Come" and "Besides." Nice!

Slow Dark Train - VOL

Oh man is this a fantastic record. I'm listening to it right now.

I remember seeing her perform with her old man Loudon Wainwright III in 1998 or so. She's all grown up now, lemme tell you. Their relationship was always strained, but she doesn't even thank her old man on this record.

Eesh. What a brilliant but dysfunctional friggin' family.

Great record ... go out and buy it. Now, ya bastid!
