]Hey, I just got the 'limited edition' album with the free sticker and "the chance to win a copy of the upcoming 5 CD and DVD definitive GBV box set." Couldn't figure out what 'the chance' was – so, it's like the Willy Wonka golden ticket deal? [/QB] Exactly,so you didn't get one either?
Just Announced

Originally posted by SPARX:What number did you get Sparx? Mine was in the 31000s, thought it would be lower considering I preordered from Matador, no Golden Ticket for me. Love the album though, I already like it more than the last 3.
Not a peep.I wouldn't be surprised if they had a different opener for the US shows though.All GBV chatter now revolves around the new release.Anybody who bought it get a golden ticket good for a free box set?Any comments on the packaging for the new one?
Hey GGW, I dont have stryper, but is there anything else you want me to burn for you? Other than an effigy of Rhett……..
So it looks like Bob Mould has moved his Blowoff gig to the Backbar at the 9:30 on Saturday nights.

Originally posted by ggwâ?¢:I went to the blowoff there – last month? They had moved to Back Bar because Velvet Lounge was closed for a day due to some kind of permitting problem. It's a tight space, and it was SO frickin' hot. I think the whole thing should move to the back stage at Black Cat.

I will say, Sat. night is WAY better. Though I know Sunday is historically a good gay dance night (but, I think that's probably due to places only giving over their venues over for 'gay nights' on Sunday rather than a good weekend night).
The Tyde are no longer playing with Nada Surf

I feel like I'm in a world of misery (she says, with about 18 other shows to see….).
Plus, the LW CMJ show is on Wednesday in New York. Can't do that either!
My lamant is that The Stills aren't playing this leg of the Interpol tour. ;)
Elbow should be around on this side of the pond in about November. Take that with as many beers as Guy Garvey had before he told a friend of mine the other night who was hanging out with him for awhile in a pub in Manchester.
Tommy Keene – September 6 @ iota
So Saturday, Sept 6th is:
Bob Mould, Fletchers, (Sat, 9/6)
Tommy Keene, Iota (Sat, 9/6)
Stellastarr & Raveonettes, BC (Sat, 9/6)
What's a gal to do? I want to see all of them (except the Raveonettes). When it rains, it pours.

I noticed one of the support bands for Clutch is called, "The Tossers". Are we really getting that low in the band name pool? What a bunch of wank….oh, never mind.

Originally posted by Mongo:Well, quite honestly, I don't know what Guy was drinking, only what he was smoking and buying my friends. Either way, he was hanging out in a certain Manchester pub and my friends were there chatting him up and drinking and smoking away with him.
