Actually there were *two* shows in the Bay.  :)

If you'd been watching
   (http://www.geocities.com/bab_news/babcoming.html)
you'd have known about these shows a few weeks ago.

Subject: Josh Joplin's first solo album

Josh Joplin <http://www.joshjoplin.com/> is just about to release his  
first solo album, titled "Jaywalker".  You might have heard of him  
before: before his current solo album, he had two previous bands  
(Josh Joplin Group, Josh Joplin Band).  The former gave him a minor  
hit of "Camera One".  He was a regular on the Atlanta music scene  
before moving to New York, and still often appears at Eddie's Attic  
(which is where I first saw him).

Josh is a boy with a guitar, and I've always got a soft spot for that  
kind of boy.  It's pop music at it's finest: the lyrics are  
intelligent and insightful, the music is catchy, there are hooks  
galore.  I've heard people say that he sounds like Michael Stipe, and  
I hear it sometimes but not all the time.  Amazon reviewers seem to  
disagree with me.

Want to hear more?  There are currently four MP3s on his site <http:// 
www.joshjoplin.com/>, and a different one (the first single, "Mr New  
Year's Day") on his record label's website at <http:// 
www.eleventhirtyrecords.com/artist_info.php?artistId=10107&page=music">.

Wow, not many bands get to actually perform *in* the Bay. Well, maybe 
Not Drowning Waving, the Waterboys, and Phish....
