Carl Abraham Zimring wrote: Heard while watching the Red Wings visit the Stars on Fox's weekly NHL game: "Timebomb" over Reunion Arena's PA. Is this a new development? Carl Z. Not sure about that but that show Felicity on the WB used the song "19" off the soon-to-be-released Fight Songs during shows in March.

ESPN brackets
Does anyone know how to find out the results to date for the brackets we filled out. I can't seem to find it anywhere on the ESPN page. Sorry for the fluff. Chad

I swear when I saw him at ACL taping I thought he was stoned. His eyes
were very red and very glassy.
Wilco on Letterman
Hope this one is alright Don. g Wilco is on Letterman next Monday. It was good to see everyone again this year although my recollections are foggy at best. Something about having a song written about you drives you to drink even more than usual. Chad
Re: SXSW hype-age
Club Deville is on Red River between 8th and 9th - across the street from Stubbs. Pretty cool bar. Pretty commercially responsible label.

Still think Exile works better on paper than in reality tho. While not fronted by women the rhythm section of Imperial Teen is all female and adds great harmonies. Just wanted to quickly plug their new record which came out today - very, very impressive upon first listen. Think this is one for you Neil. Chad
Re: Damnations TX Trivia, Promotional vs. Commercial release
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My guess is that somewhere between Sire/Watermelon and Sire, Unholy Train became the single release. Anyone know if "refining" material between the distribution of promotional copies and the commercial release is a common practice? Not usually I don't think but in the case of the Damnations the promo you got was recorded about a year ago and then they went back and tweaked a few of the songs that became Half Mad Moon.

Re: SXSW
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It looks like there are going to be several cool showcases at SXSW this year. I ran into Johnny Dowd last night, and he told me that his band, the Old 97s, the Bottle Rockets and Robbie Fulks are playing at the Liberty Lunch Saturday night (he's also playing a Checkered Past party at the Yarddog, I think on Saturday). Psyched to hear Mr. Dowd will be here but damnit I've got to go to a wedding in Dallas on Sat. nite. As far as the Old 97s I believe they are playing Thurs. night at La Zona Rosa.
