Went to see the Silver Jews tonight. I am keenly looking forward to the new album having heard much of it this evening.

They had run out when I got to the merch. table.

oh that's good for them, but sucks for you. crappy.

@ ABoyNamedArt : Nashville band with idiosyncratically intricate lyricism. From wikipedia:

"American indie rock group, formed in 1989 by writer David Berman along with Pavement's Stephen Malkmus and Bob Nastanovich. Sometimes regarded as a Pavement side project (Pavement drummer Steve West has also been a member of the band), in fact "The Joos" were formed before Pavement, and 1996's The Natural Bridge featured none of the Pavement musicians, offering listeners a more sedate album without the inimitable influence of Stephen Malkmus' guitar and vocals. Silver Jews were always a conduit for David Berman's brand of sardonic, countrified indie rock, and Berman has remained the only constant member."

@ Sarah Les Pantyhose: It's no big deal, I don't mind waiting, I'll pick it up sooner or later. I probably wouldn't have listened to it for a while anyway. It mostly takes me a while to get round to stuff. I have a stack of probably 30 odd CD's I haven't listened to already. Plus I got a pleasant t-shirt and a CD of the maniacal support act. The Silver Jews can be relied upon for dazzlingly engrossing support in my opinion.

@ Community Toy : Hmmm. Don't really know any Boards of Canada, but I may have to seek this out, perhaps on the last.fm. Thanks.

@ Community Toy : Aha. I just went with what came top on Google. If I don't forget I will look them both up.
