Does that look funny to anyone else? Whenever I'm in record stores it seems to me as if it's overwhelmingly male, at least largely so. Of course, those are usually impeccable indie joints g, but Come to think of it, I guess whenever I do wander through a Wal-Mart or Target or similar place it does seem to be largely women. Still I wonder about that stat Probably because a lot of women have crappy taste in music... They're the ones buying the Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, etc. albums and the Titanic Soundtrack...which are all usually #1. I'd say chicks also buy most of Britney Spears and N'SYNC material. And usually they'll buy them at a discount store like Target or some place like Blockbuster Music... At the music stores I go to, which are all INDIE stores of course, I'm surrounded my a lot of "cool" alternaguys and punk guys. Hardly any chicks...

Richard Buckner/Sebadoh in Dallas last night
Okay as you can tell, we opted for the Buckner show because a.) he's not local so who knows when he'll be back, and b.) Slobberbone was in Denton and nobody knew how to get there... Buckner came on right when we got to the club. He was really unpretentious and nice, bringing his own equipment onstage and everything. If he needs a roadie, I'd gladly quit school right now and work for free. Why the hell not. Anyway, the whole set was just Richard and Penny sitting up there...it was all electric. The drums were a different touch, but it was very cool. He played all of the more rockin' songs from "Devotion and Doubt" and "Since"...nothing from "Bloomed". There were a few that I didn't even recognize, but I think it's just cause he kind of mumbles and the sound system was sucking. But it was definitely as good as I thought it would be...The "D D" songs..."figure", "4 a.m.", etc. came across really well electric. It was beautiful...I saw Richard walking around the club later and wanted to go talk to him, but chickened out... Sebadoh...I was suprised at how much I liked them, considering that I've never been a big fan and didn't own any albums. For a 3-piece band, they were AMAZINGLY impressive. There was a center of power coming out of their music that totally transcended the crappy venue and crappy fans...I think it blew everyone away. Lou was in a happy mood, tearing up the stage...He said that this was the first night in months or something that he'd broken any guitar strings. I'd definitely go see them again. Andre, I totally agree with you about Deep Ellum Live. What a horrible place. I really hope I never have to go back there again. The staff were total assholes, the crowd sucked, the sound system kept falling apart. Nothing about that place deserved a show as cool as it got last night. Anyway, that's it. Thanks for all the recommendations... love, Dancer (Amanda)
Soul Asylum in New Orleans
Apparently, They are playing the House of Blues in New Orleans on April 10. Ticketmaster is selling the tickets which are general admission. I don't know what this is for, or if it's definite or anything, but I really want to go and would be willing to get together a road trip or something if anyone else wants to go. Did y'all see the write-up in Request Magazine about SA's internet fans...??? Dancer
Upcoming Dallas shows
Is anyone going to be at either of these shows this Saturday? a.) Richard Buckner w/ Sebadoh b.) Slobberbone (in Denton) Which do you all think would be the better one to go to...? I actually got someone to work for me that night. God's been taking care of me when it comes to shows recently... -A/D
