[MMouse]: itching at paradoxes, ooh that feels nice
from today's seattle times ticket section (12/23/99): Best show of the year (local band): Modest Mouse, Showbox, June 17. The quirky Isaac Brock is strange and profound; he has been criticized for giving erratic performances, but on this night was sublime, howling his songs with a mixture of rage and angst, his oddlytuned guitar sounding at turns joyful and melancholic. As this year, decade, century, and millenium come to an end, Brock's "Heart Cooks Brain" (from the 1997 Modest Mouse album, "The Lonesome Crowded West") itches at the paradoxes of our postmodern world: "In this life that we call home the years go fast and the days go so slow"
[MMouse]: 12/22/99
UP Records Christmas Party Hosted by Dina Martina w/ Modest Mouse, Mike Johnson, and the Sick Bees. Showed up early to make sure we could get stamped, and regardles of the "no recording devices" sign on the wall, I managed to make my way towards the back of the room towards the sound board without getting my bag checked. Of course, Eric Satnik was already there all jazzed and plugged into the board with his mini-disc so I almost bagged setting up, but decided to plug my DAT in just in case his bombed. I quickly retreated to the cha-cha for a few drinks. That place is so god damn smokey, jesus. Didn't help I had a terrible cold and should have been drinking tea instead of scotch on the rocks. The cha-cha has a new room in the back, and it's pathway is right were this table used to sit in the corner. Bizarre, I thought I was seeing things at first as I hazily glanced down what seemed to be a new set of stairs oozing into a loby of Hispanic decor. After an hour or so of that, we headed back down to the Re-Bar to catch the last note of the Sick Bees. I guess Mike Johnson cancelled, so they just started the show later. It really was a nice atmosphere at the Re-Bar last night, real cozy. The Re-Bar is a small club with a bar in the left hand side of the room that sits pretty much in the center. Behind the bar is a good size dance floor with a nice stage and pool tables off to the left. The bathrooms have swinging cowboy style doors, pretty swank, eh? They do a lot of plays their, and so it was nicely ornamented with Christmas cheer. This only added to the ambiance as the Mouse started to tune and pluck their instruments on stage. Jeremiah was tapping on some new device he seemed to drag into the club for the Avant-Noise sound. Looked like a large silver milk canister, but made a metallic pling when struck. The club instantly filled up, and the mouse set to their ways, played some rock for us. Isaac stated that "Let's all sit back and relax, and havea good time. If anyone has requests, just let me know". He just flew in from Florida the day before for christmas, since he is living down there with his girlfriend right now. He said he was pretty bummed on the place, and was moving back quickly. I forgot to mention, they were playing the new Modest Mouse record before the show started, it's really good, really polished though. I never know the names of their songs, but they are always familiar. I know they played dramamine, which was cool. They started at 11 and ended by 12:15 which was cool. It sounded amazing in that room, for some reason, it just really sounded good. Maybe it was the winter solstice, I dunno. Kelly is a really good sound engineer, and he made it sound tops. I'm excited to get a copy of the new album in my hands, will probably be one of the chart topers next year. yes, mp3's will be around soon. xo chris

It's not 3 songs. It's 3 tracks. Each track consists of several songs. If yr so stupid you couldn't figure this out from either the liner notes or, you know, listening to it and noting the very obvious endings and beginnings of songs, then it's no wonder you don't like it. > Jonathan-who can't find the Bright Eyes cd anywhere in the world Maybe you should try their label's website. www.saddlecreekrecords.com.
