Shannon and the Clams vs. Meth Teeth 2008-07-08 21:40:58
So last night I saw Shannon
and the Clams
and Meth Teeth at the Ghost Town Gallery. The Mutators were supposed to play too, but apparently they broke up hours before the show… hopefully they will soon rekindle their love for one another and keep on playing shows.
After the show I met up with Matty from Meth Teeth and we chatted for a bit. I had a pad and paper so here a
Hello It’s Me — Todd Rundgren 2008-07-08 21:28:23
Todd Rundgren played a show in SF tonight. He played lots of new songs from his forthcoming album Arena (2008), you can hear some of the tracks from his new album on his myspace page.

Today I woke up way late in an unfamiliar bed, grabbed my clothes and started to walk to BART so I could get home. As I headed into the station at 16th and Mission I heard dark, brooding vocals and angry guitar strokes — a definite plus when stumbling through a hangover. Then I caught eyes with the boy playing and thought yum!! who the fuck is this???

Snacktime for Shuman the Human 2008-06-30 20:36:02
Dude! Have you ever wished you could take like two of your favorite things and smoosh them together to make something even more awesome? MEE TOOO!!! Or, in this case, something in the same vein that might not be AS awesome but is close enough?
Shuman the Human is what I can only speculate (obviously…) may have happened if an Emmylou Harris & Gram Parsons obsessed S

Earthless, RTX, and Bad Dudes at Spaceland Tonight 2008-07-12 17:50:00
I like Bad Dudes, and I KNOW you guys like Bad Dudes too, cause everyone likes Bad Dudes. And your google searches prove it.
I like RTX. They played at the Prospector with Tweak Bird many moons ago, and I totally missed out because I didn’t know I liked them. I was pretty pissed about it, which is how you’re going to feel if you miss them tonight.
I like E Read more:Tonight
Gritty, dirty, brooding: Clara Engel 2008-07-10 14:52:23
Clara Engel
this total babe who lives in Toronto. I’ve been watching her via myspace for awhile now and I must admit - I have remained pretty smitten, but I’ve been trying to keep her as a secret because her songs are really intimate and my smitten-ness is very near the borderline of becoming a serious crush. Her songs range from gritty, dirty

Carolee Resurrects Nineties Drone 2008-08-05 17:59:55
As a 90’s kid I love bitchy female vocals, droning guitars, and basically all things that are influenced by the punk, grunge and shoegaze scenes. Carolee is a myspace find and she has been equally inspired by the same scenes, probably…
