Alexei Moon Casselle - mic

Two of the four vulture killers live at the Turf in St. Paul. Mario is in San Francisco and Adam is in Chicago . Maybe I'll torrent the full crew reunion from last month. I highly recommend purchasing any of the 3 releases or catching them live in any form.

Crescent Moon is in Big Trouble

That sickness that everyone has had finally caught up to me. Kicked my ass. Still kicking it. I missed the EP release at the BLB. Never been to the Theater part of the BLB. Word is it holds 75 and to get a good recording you either need to be on-stage or get their early enough to get permission to clamp to the projector. I didn't a clamp or the motivation to drag my sick ass down there. Heard it was great. Pick up the EP if you see it out and about.

I'm going to head down to the Turf Club for Kill the Vultures, Painted Saints and American Catastrophe and Alexei better have my copy or I'm coughing on him.

This is a really great set from Humanboy that opened the A Whisper in the Noise "Dry Land" US CD Release. All 4 of these people bring something to the table that makes me want to see this band again. I really don't think you'll be disappointed after giving this a quick download. I have a really nice Audience recording I'll post as well. To be honest, I'm only familiar with the tracks on myspace (check 'em out) so I was hoping Ben would help with the setlist! I hope you enjoy some Humanboy.

Jeremy McMonigle
Evan Patterson
Nick Thieneman

This is the set that Evan was kind enough to get to me. It's probably not tracked properly. It goes well burned with the Russian Circles set which is what I am listening to now. Support these fine young lads from Louisville, KY at a show or purchase a cd online. Thanks to Young Widows and the Triple Rock for being cool with taping.

Of the 3 shows I've taped this is definitely the best one. I don't think I've seen a bad Russian Circles show, this band only gets better. Pick up a CD and support them. I believe the new album is out in May. Chances are this is not tracked properly. There's a couple of new songs in there. Dälek and Young Widows also played. Long live the Triple Rock.
