Yes please. Is there anything you want, I can do along with the libertines.

I have the undertones 1st, self-titled album. I believe it has 6 bonus tracks…giving 23 in total.

It really is very good, unfortunately it looks like they may not be playing at the Velvet Lounge with Elefant. Although at least one site lists them playing with the Walkmen at 9:30, it may be out of date.

"Supersuckers main man Eddie Spaghetti's first solo effort is a messy and grinning bucket of covers called Sauce. In his liner notes, Spaghetti trashes the whole idea of solo records, especially those that consist solely of covers. But in typical fashion, that doesn't stop him from doing his own. Sauce features quick and easy, largely acoustic versions of outlaw country faves from Kris Kristofferson ("Best of all Possible Worlds") and Willie Nelson (the mirthful and giddy "Gotta Get Drunk"). There's also a run through "Cocaine Blues," but his isn't underpinned with terror like Johnny Cash's. Instead, Spaghetti cranks it out steely and fast, like it was the last song of the middle set in a Tuesday night dive bar gig. He gets a tad serious â?? or at least heartfelt â?? with Steve Earle's "I Don't Want to Lose You Yet," but it's back to a bleary-eyed cross of honky tonkin' and low culture slummin' for "Peace in the Valley" (originally by A3): Sauce isn't country, and it doesn't rock like his day job. But from end to end, it drips with the same dastardly good-time juice that defines the best Supersuckers stuff."

Didn't Mike Ness already do that? It was called under the influences.

It's more acoustic than either of the solo Ness records, but it definitely has a similar vibe.

Thanks for the heads up. My favorite Supersuckers album is "Must've Been High" and it sounds like this is in the same vain.

Very similar to that - and the accompanying countrified extraganza: "Must've Been Live

Shins yes, BSS no. Although I know someone who might let me make a copy. I would love to hear that Nick Kelly solo stuff.

the Rain Band

A kick-ass recommendation that I picked up somewhere on this board -
the Brit-pop night thread maybe…
