I don�t have pet peeves; I have major, psychotic hatreds. - George Carlin
Even if you have a crown and sit at a throne In the end you will have nothing Even if you are destined for great riches In the end you will return to the dust
The Black Keys started the North American leg of their El Camino world tour in Cincinnati last Friday night, and vault_dweller was there...big surprise, I know. They're smoking hot after spending a few months touring in Europe, so don't miss them if they come to anywhere near your home. First, the all important ticket stub, love it when they don't tear them.
Starting off with some decent video of "Girl Is On My Mind." 3/2/12, USB Arena, Cincinnati, OH
It was 1990, give or take, I don't remember When the news of revolution hit the air The girls hadn't even started taking down our posters When the boys started cutting off their hair
The radio stations all decided angst was finally old enough It ought to have a proper home Dead, fat, or rich, nobody�s left to #%&*$# About the goings on in self destructive zones
Next up a nice "Ten Cent Pistol." 3/2/12, USB Arena, Cincinnati, OH

And ending with "Lonely Boy." 3/2/12, USB Arena, Cincinnati, OH

AIC were a very good band, shame how it ended with Layne.
PJ Harvey 'Naked cousin'....Live in Chicago, good gig.
'The letter', the same. Gaaah, love this wumman. Theres Nowt like a bird that rocks.
Not sure WTF she's got on her paws like, looks suspiciously like oven gloves if ye ask me. She could wear a bin bag for all I care though, hehe. Shes the bomb.
Paul Weller (formerly of The Jam) with 'Wild Wood', live at BBC very good song.
JA with a great live version of 'Been Caught Stealing', BBC Jools Holland.
Radiohead with 'Paranoid android' live at Jools Holland..its fecking great.
Enjoy! PS Soup, love Nick Drake too, I posted loads of his songs on this thread ages ago hehe. Not sure if you ever saw them mate. Great song writer for sure.
Massive attack with 'Psyche', (Van rivers mix)....Trippy stuff and cool as phluck. Love Martina Topley-Birds vocals, shes good.
Till next time chaps, will have a look through the thread when I have time as there's always some quality stuff here. Cheers!
PIL (Public Image Limited) with 'Rise'. Hehehe, love Johnny Rotten.....proper nutter. When the Sex Pistols got inducted to the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame museum in Ohio, they didn't even bother turning up for the inaugaration and scrawled a hand written letter saying amongst other things 'Were not coming. Your museum is a piss stain. $25,000 for a table, or $15,000 to squawk up in the gallery, a 'non profit organisation' selling a load of old famous. Were not your monkeys, and were not coming. Piss off. A SEX PISTOL'
Legend. True Punk.
Florence and the machine with 'Rabbit heart', Flo looks gorgeous at the Jools Holland show a few year back, and a good performance. Her legs are about 8 frikkin miles long lol, nice when shes wearing something short hehe *droolz* Fantastic singer, playing in Newcastle Metro arena tonight, and I didn't know till it was too late! Gaaaah. Found out 2 days too late, sold out within hours. Nevermind, seen em before years ago, and I'll see em again one day...be sure.
This is a beautiful song, a wee bit sad and melancholy....but good. 'Never let me go'. Great vocals.
Ah sod it, make it a triple bill hehe. 'Shake it out', live at the BBC. Love this too.
Tanx Biggs, I try to bring a little variety to the interlude, most of the Americans here have musical tastes that are quite predictable. Love PJ, Flo & the Machine, and many of your other posts...in fact I was tickled by your recent post of Mr. Lydon's song from the PIL days. I just love the message of that one, a proper nutter, but a certain truth to what he has to say. Listened to it before my usual Friday night venture to local venues-within walking distance-to listen to unknown acts like Houndmouth, Squeeze-Bot, and Johnny Berry. You'd be surprised, back in the day there was a bit of an alliance between us no-good hippie jammers and the punk/thrash scene; it was beautiful. I dare not post it here, but look up a band called Corporate Avenger on Youtube, the song title I dare not post either, the initials are TBIBs..."The written word is a lie."
As far as the BK's go, been listening to them for 10 years now & they've only just now gotten some much deserved attention...it's one of only a few bands I know of that can break down to just guitar & drums while still entertain a crowd. Seen them play in tents, bars, and farm fields...now they're blowing away arenas full of folks. As you know, I rate bands by how they sound live, & the BK's are hard to beat on those terms. No matter the genre, as far as musical tastes go, you�re either a follower of the pack or an outlier. I'm proud to be an outlier, often I spot what the pack will like long before anyone else is paying attention. I�m betting your mind works much like my own in that respect.

Here's some Houndmouth from a few weeks ago at one of my neighborhood's wonderful music venues. Love this area, the music scene is very robust, there's always somebody worth seeing. A little tune called "Comin' 'Round Again."
2/13/12, Headliner's Music Hall, Louisville, KY
