This album is entirely dedicated to covering all of Modest Mouse’s music stripped down to the bare necessities. I was confused as to how this would work, but Mark Kozelek had never failed me and really digging this, especially on a cold rainy night tonight!
ecause it will be my first. This album is entirely dedicated to covering all of Modest Mouse’s music stripped down to the bare necessities. I was confused as to how this would work, but Mark Kozelek had never failed me and really digging this, especially on a cold rainy night tonight!
ecause it will be my first. And what a night it was…. for the longest time I have had a stigma against cover bands. Immediately writing them off as a second rate bar band that never was able to create any original material. I was proved wrong after witnessing the best Guns N’ Roses cover band to walk the earth. My only qualm was that the faux Axl didn’t give much in the swaying department and moving of the mic stand like the original. That, and I felt that he should have been wearing the Raiders jersey, but those are mere details, because the performance was entertaining. They ripped through the material brilliantly and with ease. The costumes that were in full effect were very original only to be won by the scariest f’n clown I have ever seen in my young life. It was or in the heart of the clown from the Stephen King book “IT” name Pennywise. Opening up was a pretty decent rendition of Poison. I have to say Ricky Rockett on drums was pretty good and Brett Michael did do justice on “Every Rose Has
its Thorn.”

Currently listening to— M83- Before the Dawn Heals Us
Writing haphazardly on a late night feeling sorry for myself…. I have no real reason to be sad, I guess school is almost done, and I know I want to go to graduate school, but it almost feels like I am ready for that next stage in my life. The funny part is that for once in a very long time, I feel detatched, and part of it is because Tasha is no longer in my life. Its a weird feeling but I guess it is a direct result from anxiety or fear of the unexpected. It’s not a bad thing, we were horrible to each other, mainly me, we were good at fighting, so we got that going for us. On the upside my house has a new roommate. His name is Jeremy and he is from the South. Like as in Gainesville, FL….. I decided it would be good to have a pen pal/buddy from Mexico City and I chose her based on merit, when I say merit, I mean that she likes Cafe Tacuba, an amazing rock band from Mexico DF and loved her style of writing. I felt like when I was reading her posts, it was like reading Gabriel Garcia Marquez or something comparable, it was amazing, and her name is Mariposa, or that’s the name she goes by atleast, which is purrddyyy…. So here’s to hoping she writes back….I want to visit DF and would like to make some friends before I decide to head down that way. I had a lost of friends that were Chilangos when I use to live in El Paso, and they always made it seem so superior to any large metropolitan city in the world. I really hope so, because I want to make it there one day.

I can’t believe I overlooked this concert. It’s going to be November 1st @ the Boulder Theatre. It has been nearly 2 years since I have seen these guys, caught them last time at the Bluebird and SXSW within a week. If you are in the area, I recommend catching them.

Biography
by MacKenzie Wilson
Broken Social Scene materialized in 1999 when K.C. Accidental‘s Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning, formerly of By Divine Right, bonded their friendship into a band. They spent the next few years honing an atmospheric rock sound in their native Toronto and the dynamic was great. Feel Good Lost marked their debut album in 2001 and introduced a revolving cast of Canadian indie musicians. Drew‘s fellow mate from Do Make Say Think, Charles Spearin, was added to the band, as well as Evan Cranley (Stars), James Shaw, and Emily Haines (Metric). By the time their guitar-fueled sophomore effort, You Forgot It in People, was released in fall 2002, Broken Social Scene had become an 11-piece collective. Jason Collett, Andrew Whiteman, Justin Peroff and Leslie Feist fulfilled the band’s bombastic, orchestrated sound and critics loved it. You Forgot It In People was a buzz among indie cohorts and plans for a stateside release on Arts & Crafts was slated for the following summer. A surprise, however, coincided those plans in spring 2003 when Broken Social Scene won a Juno for “Alternative Album of the Year” for You Forgot It In People. In order to maintain praise from critics, the band issued their first ever b-siders & rarities collection, Bee Hives, in spring 2004. For the band’s 2005 self-titled studio album, Broken Social Scene once again joined producer David Newfeld. Additional contributions by select members of Stars, Metric, Do Make Say Think, Raising the Fawn, the Dears and others contributed to the ambitious sounds of Broken Social Scene. A joint North American tour with Feist followed its release.
