Yer Cronies so close to radiohead, so good. Hook me up with a pair to Hercules & Love Affair
Fujiya & Miyagi Thanks.
i still wonder why mike gunther’s burn it down for the nails didn’t make more of an impact back in 2005 (wish he’d record or gig some more). also, looking forward to hearing the new tracks military special just recorded as soon as they get mastered.
Hercules NYE would be abfab
& thanks for the heads up on that fujiya & miyagi/school of 7 bells shows btw
my favorite mpls band is the crust/grind punks in Ambassador Gun.. The whole aggressive music scene here deserves much more exposure in general, but these guys are masters of their craft and keep getting better.
NYE bash at the Barfly would be nice!
I was so looking forward to The Hopefuls CD release show tonight, but Mother Nature is conspiring against me. Guess I’ll have to catch them at the Turf on 1/9 instead. Happy holidays, CB!
Love Love love my homies in Jayber Crow. peep em:

DOOMTREE!
hands down. and aby wolf with dessa during the blowout this year…buhhh! so good!
her cd release would be dope! pleassse!!
I’m with Jon G. – Mike Gunther is amazing.
My favorite local songwriter is Ben Weaver. Consistently amazing lyrics and its been great to watch his musical progression…looking forward to much more.
Also, that Cecil Otter record is slaying.
It’s too hard to pick a favorite local artist so I picked my favorite local cd, which is Crescent Moon is in Big Trouble. Such a good cd and really cool cover artwork.
Hollar.
my fave band to see live is vamp hands, but i’ve really been digging the new album by solid gold!
Since this is still the season of 2008 Best-Ofs, I’ll say The Plastic Constellations, although we bid them a wistful adieu.
undiscovered minneapolis = lm&vl, military special, bouncer fighter, knife world & happy apple.
!!!!!!!!hercules only please!!!!!!!!!!
I love Black Blondie…and they put on a great live show.
Would love to get tickets to the Aby Wolf cd release on January 24th!!
