Hello, I'm going to be spending a lot of time in airports this December but I just updated the calendar and will continue to do so before I leave. I'm still recording shows. Instead of 3 or 4 a week I've opted for 3-4 per month lately. I love archiving live music but this has given me more time to spend with family and friends. I just wanted to thank anyone who's ever cared about and or stopped by this site. I know it's been a little dead lately. Please do me one favor, take care of you and yours the best that you can.<br />
<br />

Gifts From Enola recently broke up so I wanted to pull this out of the Archives. This recording was originally <a href="http://emptystapes.blogspot.com/2009/08/gifts-from-enola-turf-club.html">posted</a> in August 2009. No editing was done in 2009 so if you enjoyed that recording I encourage you to check out what Jordan has done here. <br />
<br />
Gifts From Enola were booked to play Minneapolis exactly two years prior to this show on July 29th 2007 at Memory Lanes with Nomia but I believe the show got canceled on the Mpls side. They came back the summer 2008 but I was out of town. I was happy to finally catch up with them at <a href="http://turfclub.net/">The Turf Club</a>. Gifts From Enola, Falcon Arrow and peoplearemagnets opened for Paragraphs.<br />

They have one last show at Bule Nile in Harrisonburg, VA on June 8th. emptyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14917798297148950573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20999977.post-52659297703731184032013-04-11T19:56:00.001-05:002013-04-11T20:23:34.626-05:00Brain Tumors @ The Entry <div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
Meet <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Brain-Tumors/158990737447896">Brain Tumors</a>, in my humble opening the greatest punk band to come out of Minneapolis in the past decade. Brain Tumors first played the 7th Street Entry on November 15th 2012 opening for some band from the UK. Federal agents confiscated that recording at bar close so all that remains from that evening are individual memories and hearsay. This evening was in support of the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/totaltrashband">Total Trash</a> tape release and a tour kick off for both bands. <a href="http://themiamidolphins.bandcamp.com/">The Miami Dolphins</a> and Ugly Motors also played. <br />
<br />
They just got back from tour so I can't encourage you to check out the show in your town but perhaps I can encourage you to spend 16 minutes reading their <a href="http://www.hardlyhuman.com/">tour diary</a> while you listen to this recording? They say that attempting to record a Brain Tumors set is suicide for expensive electronics. I say some things are worth the risk to document.<br />
<br />

Hey everyone, maybe you've noticed that EmptysTapes.com has been dormant since December 2012. Well with a little help from my friends we're going to be bringing it back! When was the last time a recording was available on this site? June '12 with the <a href="http://www.emptystapes.blogspot.com/2012/06/kill-runt-tower-of-positivity.html">Kill the Runt reunion</a> set. I never stopped recording shows I just stopped posting recordings but that's about to change.<br />
<br />
Stop back later tonight and the silence will be ended. emptyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14917798297148950573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20999977.post-19038546808711034152012-12-18T11:48:00.001-06:002012-12-18T11:50:34.348-06:00Prostate, Clump & Scaphe @ The Entry Tonight<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

So I was out of town the 21st through the 26th not to celebrate some bullshit holiday but because I love my Grandparents and Family. Missed many good shows and parties but it was completely with it. <br />

Leaving again on Friday the 30th for a wedding and won't be back until the 10th. <br />

No showing off intended here. I'm going to make a post for each month to diary what was recorded or just taken in. These posts are more so for myself to help keep things organized in case my organs or mind give out by the end of the year. For whatever reason I've decided to start backwards (May and June)...probably because I'm trying to play catch up with more recent stuff that I'd like to share. January etc. will follow. It looks like this month in particular includes a lot of recording sets/shows in 2 or 3 different venues per day. OK, so that last sentence probably has to do a little with showing off. I'm probably also leaving out some <a href="http://www.hardlyhuman.com/">Brain Tumors</a> show somewhere where I left microphones and preamps at home because I knew it was going to be too engaging to be documented. <br />

I have not meant to express my thought but to help you clarify what you yourself think...<br />

Basuketto is back for June!<br />
Every Wednesday.<br />
<br />
<span class="text_exposed_show"><a href="http://www.redstagsupperclub.com/">The Red Stag Supper Club</a></span><br />
Free | 10pm<br />
<br />
<span class="text_exposed_show"> 1st Set<br /> Chris Bierden with Drew Christopherson and Maggie Morrison<br /> doing Neil Young, John Lennon, and Fleetwood Mac Covers.<br /> <br /> 2nd Set<br /> Ben Clark<br /> Mark McGee<br /> Maggie Morrison<br /> Joey Van Phillips<br /> Gip Matthews<br /> Drew Christopherson<br /> and more...<br /> <br /> DJ Maychin between sets and after.<br /><br />
Basuketto is the new improvisational project founded by Mark McGee
a.k.a Makr (Father You See Queen, Votel, Marijuana Deathsquads, To Kill a
Petty Bourgeoisie) and Ben Clark (Votel, Cecil Otter, Doomtree,
LaLibertie). After curating a successful extended residency at Nick and
Eddie, Makr will be fronting this new improvisational project that will
continue to collect some of the Twin Cities’ most talented musicians
across genres and place them in an arena for spontaneous collaboration.
In contrast to previous residencies, for this project, participants will
be exploring constraints in time, tempo, and arrangement to create more
concise and directed improvisations with predetermined endpoints. Some
of the guests that will be contributing include Adam Marx, JT Bates,
Joey Van Phillips, Maggie Morrison, Jared Isabella, Evan Ishmael, Drew
Christopherson, and Holly Newsom to name a few.</span>emptyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14917798297148950573noreply@blogger.com1
