The incestuous Denver Americana scene gets even bluer yet ("heroin

Clatu Parada to you all!

Is/Was this rumour true:

"Calexico and Iron & Wine are touring their joint EP "In The
Reigns." Tonight (yesterday - 26th October!!) they are playing the
Denver Fillmore Auditorium. KVCU, Boulder's Radio 1190, announced
that Woven Hand will be the surprise opening act. Well, there goes
that surprise. But there may be another one. Calexico and Iron &
Wine each play their own sets, then a mutual one during which they
welcome a special guest on stage from the city they are visiting.
And rumour has it that David Eugene Edwards will be that mystery
guest. The show starts at 7.30 PM. Be there and be or act surprised."

Is there anybody out there who can confirm this??

If this rumour was true - this must have been an amazing show!!

Cheers,

Alex

The European and Australian release dates for this compilation will
also be October 25.

Bloodshot Records will soon release a new compilation - For A Decade
of Sin.  This compilation includes the 16 Horsepower track
"De-Railed," which is a cover of a Rainer Ptacek song.  "De-Railed"
first appeared a few years ago on the "Splinters" single.  The
Bloodshot compilation will be released on October 25 in the U.S.

For A Decade of Sin: 11 Years of Bloodshot Records
http://www.bloodshotrecords.com/album/bloodshotrecordscompilations/183

1994: The year that saw, amidst a spasm of hubris, boredom and
naivete, the release of Bloodshot Records' first CD, the compilation,
For A Life of Sin. 11 years and 125 releases later, we've learned some
hard lessons and spent many a sleepless night wrestling in the venal
snake pit that is the music industry.

To celebrate the improbable accomplishment of surviving in this
racket, we've bypassed the usual retrospective route and hammered out
a 42 song, 2 disc collection with a 24-page color booklet featuring
only NEW and PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED TRACKS. On board are current and
past members of the Bloodshot family like Bobby Bare Jr., The Bottle
Rockets, Waco Brothers, Kelly Hogan, Old 97s, Wayne Hancock and Graham
Parker, good friends we've made along the way like Sixteen Horsepower,
Richard Buckner, Minus 5, Crooked Fingers, Mary Lou Lord, Cordero,
Blanche, Handsome Family and My Morning Jacket, and a few folks we've
long admired like Dr. Ralph Stanley, John Doe, Hank Williams III and
Petty Booka.

Last worthwhile thing: David E. playing the Vooruit venue in Ghent twice.
Magically trancy!

Wow really?  Do you ski or mountain bike at all?  Well far as me I do and love
to go to the piper down to support our local bands.

Thought this essay might be of interest to some of the folks on this list:

Soundsfamilyre must have terribly underestimated the demand for these
shirts or Woven Hand has become very popular all of the sudden...hope
they make more..if not..that is pretty much a joke.

I'd like to get another one.  I got David to sign my 16hp shirt at the
chicago show, so you know I can't wear that one now! ha
I ordered a wovenhand shirt this week, those are really nice.

hi to you,

what a nice surprise to read that name again: NEW MODEL ARMY.  in the early
nineties I was a big fan of them.  I bought their 12 first records and saw a
few gigs of them,  but in the past years I did not follow that group
anymore.  although they were great and very special!

Now, now the lights go out, there's no warning!

enjoy them!

Some of you may have seen the Spring 2004 Soundsfamilyre Scandinavian
tour with David, Br Danielson and Sufjan Stevens.  Emil Nikolaisen,
from the Norwegian band Silver, backed them up on various instruments.
  He also has another band, Serena Maneesh, that has recently released
their self-titled, full-length debut.  If you are into
shoegazing/noise-pop (jesus & mary chain, lush, my bloody valentine,
and others) you will really like Serena Maneesh.

link.

Be patient with Italian "Technology"..

Sorry. I try to upload the file but the site doesn't
permit me to do it. Christina if you want I send you
the video (10MB) by mail.

Have someone the complete version of the song?

Marcello

Hey everyone, I posted a handful of pics from the Wovenhand show in
Boston (Cambridge, actually) at the Lizard Lounge.  I have some more
if everyone is interested.

Thank you very much! I have some very nice pictures from Dresden, so if
anyone is interested I can put it in the files or send it directly...
