The Unwed Sailor tour dates have been updated on the website. If you’re in England, Germany, Belgium, Italy, or Switzerland, be sure to see them on tour with Toboggan (Gentlemen Records, Switzerland). I’m excited that the Giants beat the Braves last night, in spite of the Dodgers-Giants rivalry. I admire Dusty Baker and Barry Bonds. Three of the teams I dislike, the Braves, Diamondbacks, and Yankees have all been eliminated. Tonight, Ghost and The Animal Collective at the Khyber. I’m meeting with my old pal Keyes, so it should be a good time and good show. Tomorrow, I’ll be packing my bags for London… Special thanks to bw for the godspeed you! black emperor connection. :::scott:::
Year: 2002
Added several new releases to the btv on-line store, including three new 7″ from Switzerland’s Tricycle-Evolutif…Unwed Sailor : The Magic Hedge, Early Day Miners, and Spokane. Should be in stock soon, but for order now. Yume Bitsu’s one-sided LP has been sent off for mastering, so things are closer to completion for this release. Jeremy Dybash will be transcribing artwork into the B side lacquers to make the etchings for a couple of the one-sided LPs. Friday’s Do Make Say Think/Fly Pan Am show was completely incredible. The show was delayed due to an accident which backed up traffic severely for both bands, but the wait was worthwhile. I also stopped by Reset Art (yes, Ben, Reset ART) to see their First Friday opening. The show with Early Day Miners, Joey Sweeney, and Reels of White Softly Flow will be in this exciting and new gallery space. Saturday, I went to Lebanon, PA to carve pumpkins, go hiking, play football, and eat lots of autumn food with some friends. It was a refreshing trip to the countryside. Tomorrow, I’m going to see Ghost (Drag City) with the Animal Collective (Avey Tare, Panda Bear), which should prove to be a strange…
God bless the postal delivery man/woman who visited me today. Inside the mailbox, I found the completed audio to the Yume Bitsu one-sided LP and an order from the UK which contained the UK-only Polyphonic Spree cdep (everyone simply must own their record “The Beginning Stages of…”), the Flaming Lips’ Do You Realize DVD-single, and a soundtrack by Polish composer Zbigniew Preisner (scored Red, White, Blue, and Dekalog) with Stina Nordenstam featured as the vocalist. I’ll be wading through these goodies. while I fill orders and make print ads. I must apologize to both Rich and J. Edward for dissing them this evening and missing The Chameleons in Philadelphia. There are so many days in one’s life, I suppose. :::scott:::
