Re: [MMouse]: pavement/calexico/dirty three..damnfineshow!
Ah, excellent, I'm glad to hear the show went well (though I'd expect nothing less from Pavement). I'll be catching them (sans Dirty Three, I think) on the 6th. It's the only thing that gave meaning to this Monday. Thanks for the review.

[MMouse]: pavement/calexico/dirty three..damnfineshow!
yeah, people were right about Calexico, they are really good. lots of fun. nice south of the border sound. and the song about Tulsa was really cool, I met a guy from the list, Robert, who happens to be from Tulsa, and he was standing there, and I was like, hey how about that? dirty three were amazing! The songs went on forever and the guy was jumping all over the stage with the violin, and it was just so intense. I was really ready for Pavement to come on, cause I was so tired, and had been on my feet all day already. I needed something to get my groove on, dirty three had lots of mellow moments mixed in with the madness. So, Pavement did not disappoint at all. They did everything I wanted to hear and then some, but not Shady Lane. I had that song on my mind all day and all night, but they never did play it. Is it just me, or is Stephen Malkmous a bit pretentious? Maybe just a tad conceited? But you know, there are some people who can do that and you're just like, "Yeah, well you're right, you are a badass.. I'd be the same way if I were you." He'd be like, "Ok, I know you'll like this one.. or, "this is from our last album, you'll like it because, well it's a great album.." and all you can say is, "damn right, man.. play that shit, I know I'll love it." he did a nice little switch on "..a word, a word that rhymes with Pavement.." he said, "a word that rhymes with Sebadoh.." people cracked up. it was cute.. good show... sososleepy..

From this > list it seems like Modest Mouse has a decent following in Boston, have > they ever played a show out here? I'll be at that olivia show too...It should rock, I hear that Bablicon (with Jeremy from Neutral Milk Hotel) and the minders are playing with them...that should be so cool! As for mouse shows in Boston...I have never seen them in Boston, but I did see them at Amherst College once in Amherst, MA back in May of 98. It was on campus in the student center and it was FREE...it was awesome. Half of this show has been immortalized at Russ's Modest Mouse Boot's Page. friggin a right some I'm from New Hampshire, fohny fohn fohn fohn, Darren www.redcarpetring.com
Re: [MMouse]: 'indie in unexpected places'
Just to be "Mr. Correct Pants" I believe Stereolab was in a Volkswagen commercial and not a Volvo commercial!!! ... HELLO!?... The funny thing is that after the 1st 30 seconds in the middle of that song it sounds like she's singing Jeepa, jeepa, jeepa a jeepa JEEP! So it kind of seems like it should have been in a Jeep commercial although Volkswagens are way more "Indie" (according to the indie handbook guide) which is why I drive a Jetta so I can fit the stereotypical-indie-rocker-profile; besides all of my indie friends drive VW's too! ron...
Re: [MMouse]: Modest Mouse/LAL in the bay area
Oct. 11th at the bottom of the hill and 12th at the Great American. The Great American is sold out, but does any one know about the bottom of the hill show with duster??? I don't have tickets, but I want to go. I know it's a smaller venue, but it's 21 and up, so I'm hoping it's not sold out. If it is and some one has extra tickets. Thanks, Ron.
