Damien is a fantastic irish singer-songwriter who I discovered when he opened for Sinead O'Connor last fall. Jess Klein is opening for him. Show starts at 9pm, doors open at 8:30. If anyone is interested, send me a note.

I can't give much in the way of review, since there was a lot to take in and I heard it only once without the benefit of a track listing. But I can tell this one is going to be a good friend. Very KB, lots of texture; generally the tracks start out with atmosphere and then go someplace more melodic. One piece in there relies a lot on what I think of as the "ecto sound"--the slightly distorted spacy guitar sound that's in songs like "Temporary and Eternal," and one of the first things that pulled me into ecto-land. Kevin's still limping around a bit but the brace has come off, and he seems to be recovering well. The album is officially due out on the 13th. Can't wait to get my copy! ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 04 May 2008 17:24:09 -0400 From: gaseous clay Subject: Re: new kristy thirsk one time at band camp, morayati@email.unc.edu said: > Wow, I love these!
