Neil Halstead in St. Paul?

Assuming I can get rid of the headache I'm developing, I'm planning to hit the Neil Halstead gig at the Turf Club. Any of you Minnesota boys feel like going, look out for me. Color me surprised that a decent performer will actually be in St. Paul. (I guess there were no clubs available in Minneapolis ( Read more... )

Tim - The video does not do the song justice. I found it a little jarring vs-a-vs the music ... which is lovely.

I'd totally go see her with you.

Ya know, I agree with you on the video. The album on which that song appears is actually a collection of demos. The CD booklet has several b&w photos taken during what I assume was the recording sessions. And that's what I picture when I hear that song: the whole band in different areas of a studio, doing their thing.

The show was good but it would have been much better if the bass hadn't been turned up so damn much. It was distorting everything.

I'll put together a mix CD of some of the Slowdive/Mojave 3/Neil Halstead/Rachel Goswell stuff and send it out to ya...
