Is it me or is it weird that Butch Patrick - the guy that played Eddie Munster - now owns one the Grateful Dead's tourbuses (one that they used almost 20 years called "Sugar Magnolia"). Read about it here. Apparently he loaning it to some auto museum so they can put it on display.

Check out Butch on the bus....

And I couldn't resist posting this too...


Concert Time

Hitting back to back shows at McCarren Pool tonight and tomorrow - haven't been out there yet so looking forward to finally getting a chance to see the venue. Tonight it's indie-poppers The Shins whom I've seen a couple of time before and have enjoyed live. Tomorrow is alt.country vixen Neko Case who I'm so excited to see.

So with that in mind here are a couple of live cover songs from both acts.

First up is Neko covering Bobby D....

Neko Case - Buckets of Rain

And here's The Shins covering Neil Young...

The Shins - Harvest

I'll try and post some thoughts on both shows later in the week.

WSP's New Guitarist

Widespread Panic didn't waste too much time in naming George McConnell's successor in the band. Longtime friend and on-stage collaborator Jimmy Herring will now step up and join the band with his first show being the tour opener at Radio City Music Hall in September - which I'll be at.

Here's the news blurb from Relix....

Jimmy Herring will join Widespread Panic this fall. The Georgia-based guitarist will assume lead guitar duties in Widespread Panic beginning with its Radio City Music Hall performance on September 14. Herring, who rose to promise playing in Aquarium Rescue Unit, also clocked in time with The Dead and the Allman Brothers Band after both group’s lost their lead guitarist. Herring first performed with Widespread Panic in 1991 at Athens’ Georgia Theatre and, as revealed in an upcoming Relix cover story, was asked to join the veteran ensemble after the untimely passing of its original guitarist, Michael Houser. Widespread Panic will perform at Columbia, MD’s Merriweather Post Pavilion on Friday.

Arthur Lee 1945-2006

Arthur Lee lead singer and founder of the 1960s L.A. psychedelic rock band Love died yesterday after battling with leukemia - he was 61. Read the full obit here and do yourself a favor go out and by "Forever Changes" it's a great album.

Elvis Costello Albums To Be Reissued Again


Is it me or has Elvis Costello earned the title of the artist who's albums have been reissued more then anyone else's?? It seems like every six months he's albums are repackaged with bonus tracks, alternate takes, B-sides, new artwork, new linear notes, etc. How many times do his fans need to buy his albums??? How many copies of My Aim Is True does one really need?????

Well it looks like they're going to have buy them yet again as Universal Music has acquired 11 albums from his early years to repackage with promise of them being the "ultimate reissues". Right or until they find some recording of Elvis eating a sandwich during the recording of "This Year's Model". Read about it here.

George McConnell Leave Panic

In the wake of Widespread Panic's NE tour announcement comes the news that guitarist George McConnell is leaving the band. Here's the official statment from WSP....

August 02, 06 -- George McConnell, lead guitarist with the rock band Widespread Panic, has moved on to further adventures.When co-founding band member “Mikey” Houser passed away four years ago, McConnell, along with saxophonist Randall Bramblett, joined forces with Widespread Panic, and the band played on. Longtime friend and producer John Keane has been playing both the pedal steel and electric guitar throughout this recent tour, along with guitarist Sam Holt, founder of the band Outformation- who has been sitting in from time to time. The remainder of Widespread Panic’s summer tour will proceed at full steam. “Bottom line is there’s still songs to be played, music to make, and that’s what’s going to happen,” singer/guitarist John Bell added. “We’ll miss George a lot. I’m very grateful to him for lending us his talent and friendship these past four years, and we wish him all the best.”

Slightly vague, but I'm sure more will surface in the days to come. Thoughts??

Zach Braff Wants To Get You Laid...Again

Zach Braff proved to us all with the "Garden State" soundtrack that he has pretty good taste in music - hey he got a lot more people listening to The Shins (that ain't a bad thing right). The disc was filled with a bunch of sensitive singer-songwriter and indie-pop stuff that chicks dug - a lot - and guys used it to their advantage. So with that in mind check out the tracklisting that Braff has put together for the soundtrack to his next film "Last Kiss"....

1. Chocolate - Snow Patrol
2. Star Mile - Joshua Radin
3. Pain Killer - Turin Brakes
4. Warning Sign - Coldplay
5. Ride - Cary Brothers
6. El Salvador - Athlete
7. Hide And Seek - Imogen Heap
8. Reason Why - Rachael Yamagata
9. Hold You In My Arms - Ray LaMontagne
10. Prophecy - Remy Zero
11. Paper Bag - Fiona Apple
12. Today's The Day - Aimee Mann
13. Arms of a Woman - Amos Lee
14. Cigarettes and Chocolate Milk (Reprise) - Rufus Wainwright
15. Paperweight - Joshua Radin and Schuyler Fisk

If this doesn't get you laid I don't know what will. It hits stores next Tuesdays so start figuring out which girl you're going to invite over to listen to it with you. Good luck and you know who to thank.

It's hot in NYC. Really hot. Like unbearably hot. It's so hot out you know some idiot weatherman is going to try and do something like this on TV in the next day or so...

Anthology Of Folk Music...Revisited

While I don't actually own Harry Smith's definitive and influential collection the anthology Of American Folk Music (I know it's essential listening and definitely something I've meant to pick up) a four disc box-set called "The Harry Smith Project: Anthology of American Folk Music Revisited" will be released on October 24th. The set features selections from several live concerts that paid respect to the man and his work. Some of the artists featured are Beck, Wilco, Elvis Costello, Steve Earle and Lou Reed. Read all about it here.

Smith and his anthology were credited with helping to start the folk revival in the 1960s. Which you can read about here.

Happy 64th!
