In General
I lived in Fayetteville for three and a half years while I got my Masters at the University of Arkansas. And one of those years I even lived on a farm.
Lately
I want to write better stuff here, but I haven’t had much going on.
These Are Powers and Javelin are playing the Sang House on March 22.
How about that? I’m promoting a house show in a house I don’t live at and won’t be going to.
There was a house show last night with two bands from Athens, Georgia. I almost stayed in to watch basketball, but then decided that I’ve been sitting on my ass too much this week. It was a fun time. The weather has warmed up and the snow is really melting. This gets good in the last paragraph if you want to skip ahead.
There was some overlap in members between the two Georgia bands. Most of them were students at UGA. One band did 1990s 120 Minutes noisy guitar pop and the other sounded like that one band Jeff Mangum was in.
One of my students was in the opening band. I think the show might have been in his basement, actually. I couldn’t get a feel for who lived there and who was a guest. They did some Galaxie 500 type sounding stuff. It’s a little funny because the kid usually rocks the iPod in class while I’m playing bands that are the source for what he is playing.
The other band on the bill used to go to Fredonia, but some or all of them have graduated. I think. Anyway, they are kinda crappy and playing their Nuggets style rock when one of their dumb buddies gets naked and starts playing a tambourine. Maximum bummer points. The two lesbian girls in the front row covered their eyes in fear. The rest of us made dick jokes.
