If anyone wants to listen to something that is sure to bring a tear to your eye, you must find a copy of Jeff Buckley's Live at the Sin-E. It is pretty hard to find seeing as it has been out of print for a while and every distributer I have checked out are out of copies. I was fortunate to find a copy after a long hunt, but it is findable and only about six or seven dollars. If anyone is a Jeff Buckley fan and does not have this in their collection, you better get hunting NOW. Live at the Sin-E is one of the best live recordings I have ever heard. The last two songs, Je ne sais pas la fin, and The Way Young Lovers Do is sure to get anyone choked up if that is what your after. None the less, an incredible recording and an incredible loss to the music industry. Thats All! toDd HouLEtTe [EMAIL PROTECTED] nmc.uoregon.edu/~todd

In response to those trying to profit off their cd burners I have one as well but would never charge over the cost for the disc and shipping for anyone for a disc. I will take offers though. I also have the mp3's that were posted a while ago converted to wave files and burned on disc. I might be able to help someone out if they are in the Eugene area.

Just thought that I would run by a CD that I purchased recently that is really growing on me. It is Chevelle's "Point #1". Many of you might be familiar with it and if so let me know what you think. It is definitely a lot harder than most Modest Mouse, but quite beautiful at moments. It sounds a lot like Far which is another group that everyone needs to checkout if they havent heard of them. Unfortunately Far recently broke up but they do have a few CDs out there which are really worth listening to. If anyone would like to go further I would reccomend Quicksand and/or BarkMarket or even Porch (Todd Huth, origional guitar player of Primus' band.) Well, that's enough but be sure to check out Cevelle's new one if no one has. Thats All! toDd HouLEtTe [EMAIL PROTECTED] nmc.uoregon.edu/~todd
[MMouse]: Your indie music!
I think that one thing we have to remember is that we cannot deny what we like. If a group is indie or not is completely irrelevent. If you are listening to music like modest mouse only to impress as many people as you can by spouting off tons of cool hip bands that no one but you and your closest friends have heard of and how they have changed your life, you are listening to music for all the wrong reasons and you need to grow up. Music is an international language that should be shared on a broad scope and if you are going to value the bands that you treasure like trophies, I hope it's worth it to you, and I hope that all the people around you are impressed.

I guess I'm a little behind on keeping up with whats playing here in the northwest, but is anyone going to see Sunny Day Real Estate this wednesday at the EMU Ballroom at the UofO? If so let me know. I saw them earlier this year at La Luna in Portland and I was very impressed. I've followed their music for a while, but that was the first time I ever saw them and we'll have to see if I can scrape up some money to see them wednesday. I guess SubPop is really trying to milk sde for money since the show is $14. A little high for me. Also anyone have any feelings on the changing of La Luna in Portland. It is no longer a concert hall, but now it is an all ages dance hall. I must admit that I'm a little pissed, but I guess the kids gotta have a place to play.

If everyone is now confessing their guilty pleasures I guess I must admit mine and I wont be surprised if I get a lot of shit for it, but I'm a big lover of Slayer. Yes, it is pretty terrible, but I think it stems from my liking of such groups as the Deftones, Quicksand, BarkMarket, Far, etc. My taste in music has a tendency to reach far across the board considering my favorite musician is Neil Young. But anyway, just thought I would confess my guilty pleasure of "butt-rock" but hey... toDd HouLEtTe [EMAIL PROTECTED] nmc.uoregon.edu/~todd

I don't mean to come across as being bitter, but if people are going to worry about what other people look like and what they are talking about athe the shows they attend, I think you are going to shows for the wrong reason. I'm pretty sure that all of us are on this list for one simple reason and that is we all enjoy the music of Modest Mouse and other groups that may be similar. I think we should just keep it at that and go to the shows you like and while your at them, try keeping your focus towards the band. If your not spending your time looking towards the stage, I'm sorry you wasted your money. Sorry to sound so bitter, but lets try and enjoy music for ourselves and for what it is worth. Who the fuck else cares who is listening to it?! toDd HouLEtTe [EMAIL PROTECTED]
