Mountain Con has the elements to be good music but
does nothing at all for me, and I hope it does nothing

2000-09-05 Thread Kristian Erickson

It's pissing me off that we always talk about meeting
at shows and then it never happens.  You know who you
are Seattle people, Modest Mouse in June didn't happen
and nobody met at Bumbershoot.  It would be really
easy to meet if those shirts would've got done, I
don't know what the fuck happened to that idea.

Also, I got footage of a bunch o bands if anyone wants
to trade music for video tapes. Here's the bands I
got,

c-average
botch
love as laughter
golden ticket
dub narcotic
reeks and the wrecks
last of the juanitas
pedro the lion

...most of the shows are the full shows, sound quality
is pretty good

2000-08-19 Thread Kristian Erickson

I heard someone mention the E! channel, and if any of
you or into that stuff maybe you might of seen a drag
queen on there once named EMPIRA.  (famous and all)


Well, that's my second uncle so it'd be really awesome
if any of you have heard of him. (? him). 
Empira visited my house for an Alaskan photo shoot, it
was radical.

And on a previous topic, my dad is gay and I would
like to say it is in no way a bad thing to have a gay
parent becuase it makes you more open like others
said, and it sure beats any constricting straight
parent constantly attempting to pull the veil over
your eyes from the reality of the world.

[MMouse]: harmonics

2000-08-19 Thread Kristian Erickson

Zach

Harmonics are when you just barely have your finger
resting on the string and pluck and it makes that
signature mouse sound.  The strongest harmonics are at
the 5th, 7th, and 9th frets which are called
artificial harmonics and the really strong ones that
almost sound like notes are natural and are at the
12th fret.  

The reason you can't get your harmonics sounding like
Isaac's is because he has a bridge on his guitar that
you push down instead of pull up with a whammy bar. 
This can be found on the awesome and sorta shitty
Peavey guitars.  Brock just pushes and releases
rapidly on the bridge and makes the notes fluctuate
like near the beginning of Drammamine.

Hope that helps.

I'm starting to get a feeling that there are a lot of
band members on the modest mouse mailing list, almsot
everyone I've talked to in fact.  So everyone
affiliated come out of the dark and tell a little bit
about your band and put up your web addresses if you
have them.

I'll start, I'm the guitarist and vocalist in a band
called Piglets Conscience from Anchorage, Alaska. We
play indie and alternative and funny shit.  But now
the band is breaking up and I'm moving to Seattle to
form a new band.  So if you know anybody who's in
Seattle and wants to be in a band, could you beg them
to e-mail me? Check out my band at

[MMouse]: those damn questions

2000-04-11 Thread Kristian Erickson

1.Who are you/where do you reside/how old are you?

Evan/Anchorage, AK (soon Seattle)/16

2.What is your favorite mouse song?
there's so many great ones...Teeth Like God's
Shoeshine , Doin' the Cockroach, Head South, Polar
Opposites, Four Fingered Fishermen

3.What are five records you couldn't live without?

modest mouse-LCW
modest mouse-long drive with nothing to think about
pixies-doolittle
built to spill-kilas
belle and sebastian-3.6.9 seconds of light

4. Putting records on the internet for free download:
bad or good?
I get tons of albums off the internet because it's
such a quick way to sample music you hear about on
this list and other places.  I don't know about any of
those albums except the modest mouse ones before I
joined this list.  If I really, really like an album
I'd definitely go out and buy it just like that.


5.  Ebay, bad or good?
good when your not getting seriously ripped off (most
of the time)

6.  Russ winning the hottest male contest, is he
voting for himself or 
what?
I don't think this is true

7.  Do you own the Japaneese Tour EP?
  Fresh from Russ

8.  First live show?
Green Day at Seattle Center when I was 11.
9.  Worst live show?
I don't know, maybe Cake. The opener was cool though.

10.  Favorite sound?

The first couple lines of custom concern.  Isaac does
this awesome high-pitched yodle thing.

11.  least favorite sound?

The lyrical standard that is coming about for lame
rock music in such bands as Creed and Godsmack where
there is this certain pitch that comes out of the
throat.  It sucks so bad, and it's just a portal for
higher pitched lyricists to get a deep voice for their
"hardcore" bands.

12.  girls posting their pictures and email addresses
on the internet 
bad/good?

Good, I'm never too busy to look at girls.

13.  What book should every person in america read?\

Into the Wild (Jon Krakauer) (..or other books by
Krakauer) 

.  Signing to a major bad/good?

usually bad, and like someone else said, the indie
labels seem way more down to earth, if you got to know
the people who ran the label you wouldn't be friends
with some stuck-up big shot in a business suit.

15.  Wearing the t-shirt of the band you are going to
see?

I think I did that at Green Day (don't quote me on
that though)

16.  Modest Mouse list being oft-off the topic
bad/good?

Awesome, learning about new bands, and learning a lot
more about modest mouse

17.  Favorite beer?

underage and not much of a beer drinker

18.  Favorite color?

blue, I also like the yellow of my modest mouse shirt.

19.  What are you going to name your first born child?

this is hard...Mouse would be cool 

20.  Five favorite movies (the question that tells
tons about a 
person)?

Fight Club
2001 Space Odyssey
The Shining
Some nature films about the Cascades

...seen a lot of shitty films which mask the good ones
with their shitty layers of shittiness. (Hard Rain)

I've haven't been to too many concerts but the 2 bands
by far best in concert have to be

1.modest mouse
2.man or astroman?

I saw modest mouse last summer, and they brought the
building down in their encore of cowboy dan.  I swear
to god(don't bring up that atheist issue), that my
back that was injured after a bad snowboard fall was
healed after that show and I don't know how.??

Just recently, I saw man or astroman?, they are so
good  live!  They know how to give a good show.  They
played  computer keyboards and other cheesy digital
effects that blew my mind.  See them if you have a
chance.

Anyways, it'd be cool if anyone else wants to share
their favorite live performances.
