Hello! I'm absolutely wonderful, thank you. How are you? YEAH, I really really like Eric's Trip. I actually avoided them for a little while, because... as much as I love Sonic Youth, I wasn't really interested in hearing a band that I expected to sound just like them? But they really surprised me when I started listening to them. Which Half Japanese albums did you get? I can't really explain how it's possible to listen to them 700 times... I love Half Japanese a LOT.

No problem man glad you checked back. Anyways, from what I've heard, the western part is the most beautiful part of Canada. My friend visited Calgary this summer and he said it's much environmentally greener and much more peaceful than here in Toronto. I don't think it really matters though because the whole country is great so as long as you move in Canada, you're all good. But I recommend at least visiting Quebec, it's such a beautiful place.

Excellent. Glad to help in some way. Yeah, I am in MO. Southeast Mo actually. Sometimes it seems hard to find out if Greg Brown is playing, but I'm been trying to keep up with this lately. I haven't seen many dates. Granted I've only been a fan for a year now. Well, longer actually, but only a year actually listening to him. Four years ago I received a tribute album of his with artists like Ani DiFranco, Lucy Kaplansky, Robin Lee Berry, etc. covering his songs, but I wasn't able to find his albums very easily. Still a great time to see PJ! Luckily I will be seeing Bruce back to back. Glad he's coming back to MO because I've spent a lot of money on him this tour and last, and it seems these will be my only shows even though I was counting on Giants Stadium, MSG, and a few others. I'm sure you'll have no problem finding the new PJ, but if you want a link just let me know. I need to sit down and give it another proper listen or two I suppose.

Aww, what a bummer. Hopefully you'll have the chance to see him again. I'm hoping he decides to play a few more midwest dates soon and maybe I can travel to see him. Yeah, the two PJ concerts are going to be my first. I've had a few chances to see them over the years and something usually kept making the concerts a no go. Money usually. I have the new album, and I've only listened once all the way through since getting it. Obviously I heard Got Some and The Fixer before. I'm still not sure about the former and the latter is a nice enough rock song. Just Breathe is my favorite from the album so far. I'm sure I need to listen more, but it's the one bright spot of an otherwise dull album. It's ok, but it's not living up to my PJ expectations by any means. I'm sure traveling to see them in 1996 was awesome! Great experience no doubt.

Greg Brown is a fantastic artist. Much too underrated and/or unrecognized. Hope you are having a great September! :)

I haven't made it out to any shows. I'm still in that lame, poor funk. I did however do some incredible hiking instead near Troy, Or. How were the shows? I've heard from a few lucky bastards I know that Band of Horses was incredible...and Modest Mouse...oh, I'm jealous of everyone that got to go to that. As for living in Moscow, I love it. Planning a couple end of the season hiking trips the next couple weekends if you're interested. Hopefully there's still time to make it happen. :)

Splendid! One thing I liked about seeing BOH the first time was the surprise I had at how they looked! :) They just didn't look, to me, the way they sounded..... :P It sure was a good call for them to tour with Cass, too.... Yeah... I'd travel a ways for that show.... :)
