Last Friday I had the pleasure of recording in the beautiful Ritz Theater for the Nowlikephotographs curated showcase featuring Nomia, The Autumn Project and a very rare set from Lights Out Asia. What a gorgeous sounding room. Please show The Ritz Theater your support in their time of financial strain.

Have you heard? Nomia is back. There was a last minute show with Guzzlemug at the Hexagon last April, then a couple shows in May and a couple more in June. I unfortunately missed the June 17th show with Empires but I was able to catch up with them supporting Russian Circles and Sweet Cobra. Some people may remember the 6/23/07 tape also recorded at The Triple Rock. It's still available here on the Live Music Archive. While you're at the Archive you may also want to check out the 6/28/10 In-studio Nomia recorded for Nowlikephotographs which airs on Radio K Monday nights at 8-10pm CST. Thanks to Nomia and The Triple Rock for allowing me to record. Stay tuned for the Russian Circles set.

This was Canyons second show in Minneapolis and I've been waiting patiently for their return. I got into them in the Summer of '06 and pestered Ross a couple times about coming here. Finally the day came. They were to play the Entry October 21st 2006. But wait, what's this? a wedding reception at The Lexington in St. Paul?! AHHHH!!! No worries, it's not every day my favorite ex-aunt in law gets married. Of course I still had to try and make the recording happen even if I got there late. So fancy clothes, gear and all we head to The Lexington. It was very chilly and not wanting the cold to drain my batteries I brought my giant black bag of electronics in and placed it under the table. My girlfriend at the time was extremely impressed by this. I just don't think she ever really understood the awe-inspiring capabilities of CoS. So, the company was great and the chicken was fabulous but I never did make it to the Entry. Don't worry Laurie, you're still #1 ex-aunt in law.

Thanks to Paragraphs for not only releasing one of the best local EPs of 2010 but for also bringing Canyons of Static back to Minneapolis. CoS (West Bend, WI) and To Kill A Petty Bourgeoisie (Minneapolis) both supported Paragraphsthis evening. All of the instruments sounded great in the room thanks no doubt to Knol Tate behind the board.
