I really would prefer to see him at regular show rather than in a festival setting. It also doesn't look like he is much of a draw, based on the ACL Line-up page. (Click the link below and go to the festival line-up page) http://2009.aclfestival.com/ When you roll over the band names on the line-up page, it will show how many people have added an artist to their personal festival "to see" list. For example: Pearl Jam 7049 the Decemberists 4162 Kings Leon 7056 Grizzly Bear 1402 Sonic Youth 3686 !!! 1019 the Dead Weather 1948 Dan Auerbach 880 the B-52s 3150 Daniel Johnston 905 Girl Talk 2650 (wtf ?!?) Robyn Hitchcock & the Venus 3 329 John Vanderslice 345 Mr. Leebot 4 River City Christianettes 1 I'm hoping that the band will play a pre-show at a regular venue just before the festival (and the Butthole Surfers, too, for that matter). Later, Marc I'm learning to speak Cuban. It's like Spanish, but with fewer words for luxury items.

Mountain Climbing-We summited Mt. Baker (10,000 ft.) over the weekend and my group is inching towards Mt. Rainier at the end of next month. I actually think I was influenced by the David Lee Roth bio I read last year. Rancid-How the hell did I miss this band over all these years? I saw Sonic Youth on Jimmy Fallon the other night. Awful, but I think that's what they're supposed to sound like.... By the way, where's Eb?

On the other hand, you gotta feel kinda bad for Mr. Leebot. Assuming he doesn't specialize in ironic covers. If he does, then the asshole's getting what he deserves!

I wonder how many "Christianettes" there are? Maybe they'll invite their sole fan to join the band... - -- ...Jeff Norman The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.wordpress.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 14:27:23 -0400 (EDT) From: Jill Brand Subject: yo Stewart!
