Rolling Totes PWNING Awesome Shows in Twin Cities Thread!

no, i've been really lazy w/new stuff lately, outside of emusic. also, i just got my vinyl back from the dude who had it on loan, so i've been sifting through that, which is taking up much listening time.

yeah sorry i didn't go jordan. nomad is nice. you guys seem to be doing okay in mpls though, at least enough to make it worth the trip?

jordan, i have no idea what yer bands name is.

bold

boooold

yeah, there was some good press (city pages and onion picks, and a radio thing) so we got a great crowd. also we provided free food, which never hurts.

john, this is my band.

you should try to play with dreamland faces next time you are here, could be a kinda cool mix (they don't have myspace for some reason)i'm a sucker for musical saw:

dreamland faces are cool (maybe a bit schticky vocally). saw them open for jason webley @ turf, and then saw them in a basement. nice people.

still too sick for shows, but urrrgghhh where is heroine sheiks show?

NO JUSTICE NO PEACE BRING BACK BOLD

IDIOT THREAD REPOSITORY NEEDS MORE BOLD CAN YOU HELP

califone tonight!!

That Damo Suzuki show *was* awesome, as are Faggott, though M@tt's description of them is pretty much otm.

Did that Jerry Jeff Walker at the zoo show already happen? rats.

Faggott are better to read about than see live because you only have to READ about that dude's butthole rather than SEE it.

Just kidding, I only saw his balls.

btw, the show at the Nomad is with this NYC band, sounds intrsting.

they are opening

maps of norway CD release show october 10th at the turf club!!!!

BUMP for reminder that Jordan show is tonight

Zebulon Pike CD release at triple rock this Saturday, first show with Tommy from self-evident (M@tt knows him, right?)

I GO TO THIS NOW

duuuuude i had to go to this party of my sis and bro in law's way out in the burbs...they had an "80s" party and we went to see the coverband hairball

but anyway yeah i love zeb pike and tom is a fuckin' bro beyond belief and an awesome bass player so pls report back on the show and the new zep pike CD if you bought it!!!!!

i ordered zebulon pike cd from their website a long time ago and never got it :(

I can bug tommy about that if you want jordan. Are you talking about the new one?

New record is great, show was fantastic. The second track (of three) on the new one is my favorite.

Hairball!

Anway, so going to this Dead Moon shit tonight.

Er I mean Pierced Arrows. Man, does a drummer change really necessitate a name change?

Everyone was dancing and I got really sweaty and sprayed with booze and Toody Cole is so nice and then we went to our pal KG's place in St. Paul and drank vodka and had to chase it with cookies because there was nothing else WOOT and then we drove all the way back to Mankato HI DERE GOOD MORNING the end

(driver was sober! though apparently I wasn't quite yet when I posted this)

Pierced Arrows shows are Rad Times

Belphegor, Amon Amarth, Ensiferum, the Absence tomorrow at Station 4 in STPL just in case i am not alone in my TC metal love.

It's looking likely that I'll be at this.

awesome. if you are, find me, we'll drink beers.

If I'm done with my papers, I'll be there.

Eh, unfortunately stuck in Kato. Oh well.

Legendary Pink Dots at the Varsity on Thursday! I've never seen them.

Zebulon Pike opening for Boris on Friday at the Triple Rock!

probably can't go :( might cancel plans and piss people off in order to do so though.

M@tt, have you seen Zeb Pike since Tommy (from self evident) started playing bass for them?

bump for the good of the people

this saturday, mama digd0wn's brass band @ the nomad. we're making jambalaya and serving it up (for free) at set break!

Thanks for the link u.m.s.
I may succumb.

significant old school mpls post punk news! (rifle sport is todd trainer of shellac's old band if you are unfamiliar)

Rifle Sport
Yesterday at 9:54am ·
One year after we recorded Voice of Reason at Blackberry Way, we went back to the studio to record a second album. It was never released and the multitrack and master tapes are long gone as far as we know. No idea what happened to them.
But Terry Katzman had a cassette of roughs and possibly final mixes, which he handed off to me last night and I'm currently digitizing.
Hoping to do some sort of release of it if it all turns out well. Some very cool and uncharacteristic Rifle Sport tunes. So far the recording sounds excellent.

More significant old school mpls news! Anyone going to this?

http://first-avenue.com/event/2015/05/longhornreunion

sounds cool!

also wasn't there a pre-Commandos, pre-Suburbs band called the X-Boys that featured Chan Poling, Osgood and some other early mpls punk/new wavers?

Tim Berne's Snakeoil at Icehouse on Monday, which hopefully I'll be able to make it to , schedules permitting

http://www.icehousempls.com/events/2015/5/11/tim-bernes-snakeoil

M@tt, actually X-Boys came after both had broken up, I believe. (Hence the "Ex" Boys I think, although they used to consume a ton of Special Export!)

It's all 60s/70s rawk covers. They used to play The Uptown regularly, and later The Eagles in Seward. And recently at a KFAI benefit at the Turf:

Coming up for the D'Angelo show this weekend. :)))

It's been a long time since I've been in the cities without a show of my own to play, so I'd love to know if there are any hot restaurants or anything I/we should check out. How's that Surly brewpub?

it's awesome

idk if this is PWNING but it's totes something

Saw them last night in a tiny club in Chicago. Between being featured on Twin Peaks and opening for Jenny Lewis, looks like they're getting bigger. Also getting more 60s garage/pop as they grow. Great live show.

Since the modern radio message board disappeared (or went underground?) it's hard to find out about local music from a source that's not some strib-affiliated bullshit. This seems okay https://swhenever.com/

doesn't have the band i'm in's upcoming show, disqualified. i miss mmr board even if i was a latecomer

Yeah I find it really hard to get info on local shows these days, esp since I'm not on FB, of course I can't really go to any shows but still

would've been neat to see skoal kodiak

They were a blast.
