Test pressings for June Panic’s Raising the Canopy Wires one-sided LPs arrived yesterday. They were sounding and looking great. I’m expecting test pressings for other one-sided LPs this week. East Coast, get ready for Saxon Shore. See you at the Philadelpiha and NYC shows on Friday and Saturday. For all of the Andy Bruntel fans out there in btvland, he’s just finished a video for a new Bonnie Prince Billy song and it features some falconry. :::scott:::

Lots going on here. I was in NC for a couple of days. Then, a vanload of friends and old rockers rode up for the State College Beer Festival. And, I just got back from a couple days in NYC with Lucas and Diana who are visiting from Holland. On Sunday, we met up with Cakeater and saw the free show with Jason Lytle of Grandaddy in Williamsburg. It was a little hot, but the sound was good. The set was pretty low key and the crowd seemed to be pretty out of it, but definitely enjoyable. I’m expecting copies of Unwed Sailor’s The White Ox back from the factory shortly. They’re getting ready to go on tour on the West Coast shortly. Saxon Shore have a day off in Philadelphia and then do DC tomorrow night. Then, a hometown show and a jaunt up to NYC and Boston. Be sure to catch the last dates of their tour. Yndi Halda have wrapped up their UK tour. There are reviews up for a couple of the shows. One here at Drowned in Sound and one here on the blog Boring Machines Disturbs Sleep. The band is going to wrap up…
More dates for Unwed Sailor on the West Coast in August have been posted. Keep checking for additions. I went to see Danielson with the Impossible Shapes at Vox Populi on Saturday. It was blistering hot and we all left the show completely soaked with sweat. I was in Hoboken on Friday night and got to see Serena Maneesh. Anybody see them at the Siren Fest in Coney Island on Saturday? Always good to see Emil, Ben, and everyone else. Even if it means driving a carload of Norwegians and equipment to Brooklyn at 2am. :::scott:::
