roadtrip ideas
Calling on the infinite wisdom of you people, i come out of the lovely lurking corner and have a question that nicely turns into a swellthread... as a celebration of my friend getting her masters and begining her quite frightening profession of teaching high school math, we're taking a 2 week road trip sometime in June or July, from from Texas and would eventually like to see Montana. other than that specification, we have no requirements... anyone have any suggestions/reccomendations of cool spots, good shows, great places to eat, the coolest 'Home of the Largest __'monuments, whatever anywhere west? any state is fine, any out of the way spot, hell, the band doesn't even have to have a name, we're easy (at least that's what we keep hearing) gracias jacy _ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Extra recommendations from SXSW
Just got the Monte Warden and its good in a Buddy Holly, happy sunshiny listen at work kinda way Lonelyland is great, though... Bob Schneider is concurrently leader of the Ugly Americans, the Scabs and Lonelyland. Ugly Americans are more funk, Scabs more jazz, and LL more acoustic hick-rock but they mostly play the same songs... which can be found on the Ugly Americans CD This is the first CD i pull out when i'm getting ready for a great night or when i just want to wake up happy... -jacy --- Barry Mazor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: OK...just a few recommendations and bits of quiet good news from what I saw and heard dopwn there...People we OUGHT to get to hera more of, I think... Monte Warden. Big return week for him, as a cxloser with buddies the Robison bros and Kelly Willis at thge awards, and a strong set at the Broken Spoke Thursday night of SXSW with James Intveld on keyboards...I'd highly rcommend his new CD "A Stranger to Me Now" too...which is a brnad new 1959-60 post-rockabilly pop album...which is to say, in the tradition of Roy Orbison, Phil Everly and Buddy Hollymelodic and dramatic. Marshall Crenshaw fans will probably go for it too. Live, he also showed he could hit the rockabilly twanger with some slashing guitar dramatics--which, by my definition, you have to be able to do to do THIS brnad of non-rockabilly convincingly. Lonelyland. Caught these guys in the Convention Hall one afternoon. Led by Austin guy Bob Schneider, who'd appently has led a bunch of funk bands before, here comes up with a unique and engaging laid back-and grinning by the fishin' hole style that I certainly hope will find a recording home...A very modern twist on what I'd call the traditions of Hoagy Carmichael/Phil Harris singing...ya know, Rockin Chair's Got Me! _ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Extra recommendations from SXSW
I believe Scabs and UglyAmericans share the same band memebers and just throw in whoever happens to be in the swing of things (or just there), but don't know who those particular 'all stars' were nifty little page at www.uglyamericans.com lists members np: Ian Moore's got the Green Grass *sigh* --- Christopher M Knaus slackjawedly stated: Hey there, jacy reminded me... Bob Schneider is concurrently leader of the Ugly Americans, the Scabs and Lonelyland. Ugly Americans are more funk, Scabs more jazz, and LL more acoustic hick-rock but they mostly play the same songs... which can be found on the Ugly Americans CD The bi-line for the Scabs was '9 piece all start goup' and since they were after Kelly Willis I couldnt get in. So who is in the band besides Bob? Thanks. Later... CK staring slack jawed at my stereo playing The Shaggs. ___ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Re: PLAYLIST KOOP New American Roots Music 3/5/99
YEAHH!!! i've been searching and searching for a show/station in austin other than klbj who plays local music just in the mornings...and kgsr (i can't stand jody's voice) i'll tune in for sure how long has this been on? [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The New American Roots Music Show is heard Fridays from 9 to 10 AM on KOOP, Austin, Texas 91.7FM. It focuses on new releases and recent re-issues in country, bluegrass,folk, blues, cajun, zydeco and whatever else fits. SXSW seems to get everybody to release albums at the same time making it impossible to get all the good stuff in this week. That and my record budget is out of control again. That said, don't miss the Meat Purveyors new 7" (vinyl, what a concept) and Pete Krebs sure is sweet (thanks Jenni). Any questions?
