it was loud.

also: hoped to see if rose melberg would make a better seapony vocalist but i will settle for her field mice cover band.]]> http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2011/08/13/4jcp2u_review%253A_seapony__gold_leaves_math_%2526_physics_club Sat, 13 Aug 2011 10:26:08 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2011/08/13/4jcp2u_review%253A_seapony__gold_leaves_math_%2526_physics_club Review: Seapony/ Gold Leaves / Math and Physics Club: Fri 12 Aug – Concerts at The Mural 2011


there should be a mosh pit of grade school kids at every indie pop show.]]> http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/04/22/fw5_review%3A_sunny_day_in_glasgow Tue, 22 Apr 2008 06:35:51 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/04/22/fw5_review%3A_sunny_day_in_glasgow Thu 17 Apr – The Thousand Names, A Sunny Day In Glasgow, The Be Neats, Deli Pub

I thought it was apt that a band not from Glasgow played in a bar not from Edinburgh. The stage right side was ear piercingly loud and I liked that cute little guitar that was brought out.]]> http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/04/04/fw4_review%3A_ringo_deathstarr Fri, 4 Apr 2008 18:27:33 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/04/04/fw4_review%3A_ringo_deathstarr Thu 3 Apr – Ringo Deathstarr

All the bands put together makes an impressive gallery of the different iterations of the Fender Mustang/Jaguar family.

I think it's great when you can just hide how bad you can play through a cacophonous wall of pedals. Which I guess makes it good.

The T-shirts were very thin and somewhat cheap, though Holly tells me V-neck t shirts are pretty in style right now, but not as hot as they were last summer.]]> http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/03/26/fw3_please_listen_to_my_first_muxtape Wed, 26 Mar 2008 08:58:06 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/03/26/fw3_please_listen_to_my_first_muxtape http://indierthanthou.muxtape.com/

the cupcakes were nice and spongy but the frosting was a little too much.]]> http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/03/24/fw1_review%3A_jens_lekman Mon, 24 Mar 2008 06:13:36 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/sammich/journal/2008/03/24/fw1_review%3A_jens_lekman Sun 23 Mar – Jens Lekman:
