Colonial Watts (ex-The Dad In Common), The Cloak Ox and Makr supported Seawhores. Fantastic line up and top shelf sets all around. It was especially exciting to witness The Cloak Ox's debut. Wow. The Turf Club had just reopened a couple days prior and it was great to get back inside it's embracing glow on this frozen over evening. Thanks to the bands, Herb and the rest of the Turf Club staff for the Midway the spot to be last Thursday.

How To Lose Your "Hard Rock Cred" Step One:


Many (I mean MANY) friends and close associates will be attending the Hammerhead show at The Turf Club this evening. Top shelf support in the form of STNNNG and Seawhores will bring people inside from the sweaty Pleasure Garden. Hammerhead played Death By Audio in NYC this past June and will also be playing the SOLD OUT AmRep 25th Anniversary show on August 28th. With that said, tonight's show will be the first and only time the local crowd has seen them in 14 some years.

Friends and associates, I hope the Turf is a blast but I have to catch up with Lytle and Burtch at The Triple Rock. See, they have this new band, Admiral Radley with Aaron Espinoza and Ariana Murray from Earlimart. I've been asked for the past couple of weeks if I was going to record Hammerhead. As much as I would like to I can't always be in "the spot" to record "the show" but hopefully someone comes through. I'm sure there will be a video camera in the room. Video is where it's at.

Thanks to Lightning Bolt and The Triple Rock for allowing me to document this show. Please support Lightning Bolt by picking up the official releases. Plenty of them are available through Load Records. Thanks to endlessmug for the invaluable set list confirmation. We can only assume that 3, 5 & 7 are newer songs, perhaps without titles. Seawhores and Poop Smeared Mirror supported. I selfishly choose to attend this show instead of flying out Thursday evening to see family I haven't seen in over two years. This meant an early Friday morning flight on little sleep. Turns out the family understood and the sleep deprivation was a small sacrifice to make for this recording. I hope you enjoy. Here's to the TSA officials at MSP for not shakin' me down this time.

Out of everything that was recorded in 2009 this set from The Deaf is certainly in my personal top 10 favorites. With 90 some shows recorded and who knows how many bands there's a lot of competition to beat out. This is something I've been really excited to get out there, it's just taken me a little over a week to do so. I'm still working on the set list but new songs were played. Seawhores, The Deaf, In Defence and Gay Witch Abortion supported The Blind Shake. Thanks to The Deaf, Learning Curve Records and The Triple Rock for allowing this fine evening of music to be documented. Support local bands, labels & venues in 2010 and every year after that. It's never been more important.

Marijuana Deathsquads recieved a lot of well deserved local praise in 2009. I had only seen them previously one other time last summer at the 501 Club. I've been trying to catch up with them every since missing a handful of shows due to various schedule conflicts. MDS is members of Building Better Bombs alongside a rotating cast of players. I've included a blog from their myspace in the txt file to help clarify things. This particular line-up included Isaac and Ryan (Digitata, Mel Gibson & the Pants) with Ben (Private Dancer, Falcon Crest, STNNNG) and Charles (Seawhores) both on drums. MDS and Seawhores supported Chariots as they reunited for a special benefit show to help raise money for a close friend's kidney operation and medical expenses. Any of the three sets would have been worth the price of admission alone and I hope to post the other two as well.

The Blind Shake are the best at what they do and everyone in Minneapolis knows they can't be stopped. Ten minutes in Learning Curve Record's online store could yield many a great stocking stuffer. Seawhores, The Deaf, In Defence and Gay Witch Abortion supported The Blind Shake. Will come back to fill in the set list. Time to move onto the next set...
