Them Crooked Vultures
February 7th, 2010We’re going to see Them Crooked Vultures on Monday night at Roseland Ballroom. We being me, Patrick McDermott, Jake Rake and Ogy. First of all, for those of you not familiar, Them Crooked Vultures are a rock band consisting of Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age), Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Rockstar Extraordinaire) and John Paul Jones (aforementioned genius, of Led Zeppelin). I’m psyched. Beyond psyched actually, since I haven’t been to a large scale production since we saw Kings of Leon in September.
- The fact that John Paul Jones is 64 years old and couldn’t get enough rock and roll is inspiring beyond my ability to verbalize.
- These three guys in one band seems like it shouldn’t be allowed. It’s like being able to see the dealer’s card in black jack before you bet. And wouldn’t we all love that?
- It seems likely that if this show is as impressive as I’m expecting it to be, I’ll have to find a damn good reason why not to go see Muse at MSG in March since that stands to be comparably (though differently) awesome.
Why I Love.
February 3rd, 2010My mother died 13 years ago today. Shortly thereafter I began playing the guitar. . . a lot. I love and miss my mother more than words could possibly convey and I won’t even try. The fact is, all the guitar playing and singing I’ve done over the last thirteen years (and will continue to do for the rest of my life) make it much clearer than anything I could say myself. I miss her every day, and think about her every time I reach for a guitar and sit behind a microphone and look each and every one of you in the eyes. I’m filled with the love and inspiration that she provided me over the course of the 11 years she was in my life.
Tonight’s Lineup. . .
February 1st, 2010- Bad Romance (Live from KJ Farrell’s 1-30)
- Holding Your Breath (Live from KJ Farrell’s)
- The Ocean (Live from KJ Farrell’s)
- You Can’t Make Me Let Go (Live from The National Underground 1-8)
- Kings Of Leon ft/ Eddie Vedder – Slow Night So Long (Live @ Rock Werchter) As I said when I posted it on Facebook, Eddie Vedder is always invited.
- Flock Of Seagulls – I Ran Kicks ass, just gotta pop it on now and then.
- Kings Of Leon – Knocked Up (Live @ Lollapalooza) Just totally sweet.
- Frou Frou – Breathe In Heard this on Pandora the other day, wrote it down instantly. Like it even more the second time around.
- Jimi Hendrix – All Along The Watchtower (Live) You can’t mess with Jimi Hendrix.
- The Arcade Fire ft/ David Bowie – Wake Up (Live) This is fucking incredible. You can always use a little David Bowie.
- David Bowie ft/ The Arcade Fire – Five Years (Live) From the same show as the one above it, but one is an Arcade Fire song, one is a David Bowie song. Right?
- Placebo – Five Years (David Bowie Cover Live) A recent accidental discovery that I’ve been checking out pretty regularly. Awesome performance.
- Kate Bush ft/ David Gilmour – Running Up That Hill I was originally familiar with this song after Pat put a version of Placebo playing it on a mix. I didn’t realize it was a cover. Nor did I realize it is covered with a pretty good deal of frequency. I found versions of like four or five other bands playing it. Cool.
Showtime. . .
January 30th, 2010There’s nothing better than getting ready to go to a gig. Except maybe playing the gig.
Seriously. . .
January 28th, 2010I was just thinking.
“You don’t look for an hour and then just quit. You get your ass out there and find that fuckin’ dog.”
Just past seven. . .
January 25th, 2010The sun is coming up. Or, the sun is appearing. I’m watching Muse – Supermassive Black Hole live from Wembley Stadium 2007. They are so fucking awesome. Depending on what Pat and I have going on in March, we might try and catch them at Madison Square Garden but it is a Friday night, so who knows.
- Something In The Air
- Already Home
- Tell You Twice
- Silhouettes
- Christiana (w/ Paparazzi interlude)
- Holding Your Breath
- You Can’t Make Me Let Go
- I’ll Take It From Here
Rambling. . .
January 25th, 2010- I heard The Grateful Dead’s Touch of Grey on 101.9RXP earlier tonight. They call themselves “The Rock of New York”. Regardless of how I may feel about The Grateful Dead (indifferent, apathetic), I do feel comfortable saying that they are not really a rock band.
- I also heard The Who’s Long Live Rock while flipping through the stations. I’d call this a rock and roll song for sure, but I think it sucks. I’m at the point in my life now that my father was at ten years ago when I was listening to The Who a lot. I frankly don’t care if I ever hear another song by The Who. And really, who the fuck at the NFL thinks it’s a good idea for them to be performing at the Super Bowl? I vote Lady Gaga.
- Joe Perry (of Aerosmith) is historically underrated. Cryin’, Tell Me What It Takes To Let You Go and Crazy are pop songs which all feature creative, uncommon and unpredictable chord changes. Cheers to that.
- This song is unreal. Fuckin’ Radiohead.
Moved To Write. . .
January 21st, 2010It’s all about feel, isn’t it.
- Death. A lot. More than usual, too. It seems like every time I’m in the car by myself I consider what might happen if I were to lose control, or worse if someone else were to lose control causing my car to spin out of control and over the side of a bridge. Usually the 59th Street bridge, but I’m not discriminating. I suspect any bridge would do. I guess I was already in this mindset and then I rediscovered “The ‘59 Sound” by The Gaslight Anthem which is a song rather indiscreetly about death. It’s fucked up. Or, rather it is what it is. The outcome however. . I end up thinking a lot about what I do on a daily basis and making sure that whatever it is, is something satisfying, fulfilling and worthwhile.
- I remember in the Lethal Weapon movies, Mel Gibson claimed to sleep with a gun under his pillow. Same thing in “I, Robot” with Will Smith. You find out that in fact they both did, at least in the movie. I guess that’s something to be said by cops, detectives and other special agents (army, navy, marines, etc) that are in a position to be wielding firearms. I sleep with my guitar.
- I’ve become pretty enamored of the “#nowplaying” topic on Twitter. Seeing as I’m either listening to, viewing, or hearing a song in my head every minute I’m awake, it seems apropos. I just put on “Lost” by Coldplay from Viva La Vida. That’s a strong record. Not a rock record, but a strong record all the same.
- When people ask me or Pat how to classify our music I’ve often been moved to compare us to many different bands, usually our biggest influences that people would be familiar with. It’s not really indie rock, or alternative rock. It’s really more like rock rock. I think if it were listed on MySpace it would say “Rock/Pop/Rock”. Nothing wrong with that. Who doesn’t like pop.
- #nowplaying OneRepublic – Goodbye Apathy. A gem on their Dreaming Out Loud record.
- I watched Inglorious Basterds for the second time last night. It definitely was better the second time around. It’s fucking amazing when a movie can do that and truly outdo itself with the second viewing. Seems reasonable to assume that it might be even better the third time through.
- #nowplaying Kings of Leon – Use Somebody. For a change. Speaking of replay value, my god.
- James Morrison is a seriously talented dude. The first time I heard “The Pieces Don’t Fit Anymore” I was in a hotel in Venice watching MTV Europe. The two videos I caught while watching were the aforementioned James Morrison, and “I Still Remember” by Bloc Party (sweet band). Needless to say my return from Venice resulted in the purchase of both of those records. Undiscovered and A Weekend In The City respectively have seen an awful lot of play over the last three years.
- What’s actually playing now, or properly #nowplaying Kings of Leon – Sex On Fire, but the song that just occurred to me, and will likely follow is “Dig” by Incubus. Light Grenades kicked so much ass. It was particularly fortunate that they put that record out because I thought “A Crow Left Of The Murder” was awful, save for the single. But even that was a little bit ridiculous and self indulgent on their part. Nothing personal, cuz I love Incubus, but I’m not always so in love with political statements of any sort. I don’t begrudge people their right to voice them, I just can’t promise that I’ll always be listening.
- People are so obsessed with time travel and the possibility of achieving these great ends by defying the laws of physics and other sciences. Make a really good fucking mix tape/cd/playlist and close your eyes. That will take care of all the time travel you need. If you’re aching to be taken back, you can make it happen.
- I started playing guitar when I was 11. I don’t remember exactly when I realized that singing was probably a good activity to incorporate with that. I’m glad I did though. I don’t think anything makes me as happy as singing does. Don’t get me wrong, playing guitar is a kick ass time and something I relish every second of. Singing is kind of different though. . I don’t even think I can explain why well enough to do it justice. Having the opportunity to sing on a daily basis has kept me out of a straight jacket.
- #nowplaying The Airborne Toxic Event – Sometime Around Midnight, also the sound of my washing machine. I’ve recently gotten into doing laundry. Not that I wasn’t wearing clean clothes before, but I decided that I could bite the bullet and do it myself since I have a washer/dryer in my apartment instead of running down the block to the laundromat. Whatever. The real hard part is folding clothes and I don’t do that anyway so I’ll save the $12.27.
- I’m heavily inspired by people who do what they want.
- I heard the entirety of Radiohead’s “In Rainbows” on Thanksgiving of 2008 for the first time. I bet I’ve listened to it and its components an uncountable number of times since then.
- I wrote a new song the other day. It was one of the ones that instead of having to work hard at it, edit, revise, rework, restructure, rethink just sort of flew out in a forty minute purge. I’m not sure what it’s going to be called yet, but I played it for Pat and the guys at rehearsal today and we’ll start to bring it to life more on Friday. Here’s the lyrics:
