I’m going on a roadie in a few weeks and I’ve burned some cd’s in anticipation of my trip, but I want your input. What is your all time favorite road trip song? I’m big on singing in the car, so keep that in mind. Hit me back in comments. I’ll keep this as a sticky entry until I get enough songs to make a cd. Thanks for helping me rawk the 101.
(I am seriously rawking the 101. Driving from here to Santa Cruz and back.)
It was about halfway through Regina Spektor’s Passover-eve show at the Williamsburg venue Warsaw when a loudmouth in the audience said something inappropriate at top volume. Better to not dignify the comment (sexist, lame) or its author (male, boorish) by committing it to print, but suffice it to say, it stank. Lingered there in the air for a moment as the crowd pondered how, or whether, to respond. Up in the balcony, members of Spektor’s family—including her grandfather, who’d never seen a proper show of hers before—were undoubtedly steaming, a combination of fury and frustration
[go]I heard an interview with her yesterday morning on NPR. She doesn’t sound anything like I expected, which kinda threw me off. But they played some bits of this new album, and I really, reeeaaaally wanna get it now!
[go]I am so excited to see that you are giving this away! I love Jeff Buckley, he has been my favorite for years and years. My favorite song from the Grace album is Lover You Should’ve Come Over, because the lyrics and the music is s haunting and beautiful. I even had an artist friend f mine custom paint shoes for me with Jeff’s face and lyrics from the song on them 
Email me if you want to see pics!
The song that did it for me was…
Honeybear.
And of course Zero, that was nice.
Thank you for the set of songs, i am trying to recreate the concert for my bro, too bad he could not make it…
Laterz!!!
[go]okay, i updated further from a couple different sources...still probably only 85% accurate....
[go]thanks guys. this is why i try not to post so late at night. i missed putting maps up and there was still another song i couldn’t figure out. sigh.
[go]Yeah, I think it was “Maps” right before she closed with “Zero”. I remember because I heard someone do an awesome version of it at the Lamplighter later that night.
[go]I too am a huge fan of the Combat Baby days. Old World Underground remains one of my all time favorite albums after all these years. Even though they were supposed to be promoting Fantasies I wish they’d done at least one more song from Old World Underground.
I thought Emily was awesome and I loved watching her, but in comparison to Karen her energy seemed to wane a little. I also hated that she never took off her fucking sunglasses. Still though it was amazing to see them up close and personal!
I was there last night too. I’m pretty sure maps was right before zero. i don’t know about the other ? though.
[go]I’d love to get on the guest list to see them with the Constantines
