Not long ago E-Roc and I went to see Those Darlins (a band who I can’t recommend enough, especially live) at Scubas. Of the two opening bands, one was amazing, Deep Sea Diver. The amazing voice of Jessica Dobson combined with the reverb of her guitar makes some great songs. I guess Beck likes her, if that helps.
Sorry about the long break in posts. Discovered these videos after being amazed by the video that was posted here: a Mims video and this one from Franz Ferdinand below:
I love television, but have given up on primetime television with exception to a few choice shows. (By the way, if you haven’t seen the teasers for the new season of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, do yourself a friggin’ service.) Thanks to Netflix and other people’s DVR, watching live tv has become painful. While I don’t have the month off of school to watch a ton of documentaries like Ellen or have an addiction to tv dramas like Kevin, I decided to give Community a chance when they let it stream commercial-free on the facebooks. I was unsure about E!’s Joel McHale until I heard him “riffing” on Red Dawn. While it might be too early to say its as good as 30 Rock, I like it so much I want to take it behind the school and get it pregnant. Via Pop Candy.
I can’t think of a better way to start the day than to learn that the band that a little under a year ago broke my heart and disbanded has now regrouped and is back at it for another round. Not all is the same though, the lead singer Andrew Stockdale has passed up his past band-mates and formed a new foursome. The sophomore album drops in stores October 13.
Here is the single that was released in June:
I first heard about this in the tribune. Anybody in for this?
