If it's anything like that Moby cover, I'm going to be a pig in shit.

Yeah, I might be in it, actually. ;D I'm not really sure, but they filmed me and one of the guys from juniper tar talking about Wilkes-Barre. To be honest, I kind of hope I'm not, I was a bit drunk, and I tend to repeat myself. That show was fantastic though, at this old man bar called Donahues, which is kind of known around WB as the bar you can get into underage. They only have genny on draught. It's a cool place though. John, one of the guys in High Frequency Media, actually got in touch with me through their Facebook page to see if I could hold a screening for it in Wilkes-Barre, but its not looking likely, unfortunately. But I'm pretty sure there is going to be a DVD release of it sometime down the road.

That's cool! The little two minute clip gives me the chills. What's the story with Juniper Tar? Any good?

Yeah, they're awesome. I was actually going to use thier first one as my pick for the album club, but switched. They have a full length and an ep and are working on a new lp now. They're on spotify if you have it, check em out!

It's looking like a January release for the new album.

Yeah, with Crooked Fingers. You should go!

Just heard of this guy recently... really like that first album. I think I heard he's from around Philly somewhere?

Anyway, probably going to his show at Johnny Brendas (a gret venue if you're in Philly).

He's based in Philly now, from Wilkes-Barre (via Indiana) though.
And yes, go to Johnny Brendas.

I'm going to see them on Friday in Wilkes-Barre. A pre tour show before they head out with Crooked Fingers. First time seeing the new band, I'm excited. Probably some new songs i haven't heard yet as well.

Penny Lane · Oct 12, 2011, 05:39 PM

So they just have the one album and one on the way?
I can't stop listening, probably will go to the Hoboken show.

Gonna try and make it! Penny why don't you come to this show instead jersey?

I can't believe I'm missing the NJ and NY shows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I find myself somewhat obsessed with this music.
Hope you guys enjoy it for me :) I will be in Cali, which I guess is a pretty decent trade-off.

It was great! They played 2 new songs, dark shores and a song I've never heard before. Last to swim, Alex Kona, bonfire, sister evangeline....I forget. The band is trippy as shit, very ambient. Bad news is that Tim told me that the new album won't be out in January. The way he said it makes it sound like it might be a while.
