ShortWaveRockin

Tigs here with BIG NEWS. Here it is…a Short Wave Rockin Original recording.

That, however, is not a Short Wave Rockin Original picture…more info on that later…just to keep you reading.

Adam, Andrew Dunn (you don’t know him…neither do we), and myself attended the Daniel Johnston show at the Highline Ballroom last week. It was a pretty good show but I’ll let the show speak for itself and you can all make up your own minds.

You can hear me pretty clearly throughout the show, which sucks. I laugh loud and like a moron, so if you’re like “who’s than annoying kid” it’s probably me. I don’t think I’m “WOOOOOOOOOOOOO”ing at any point though, so that annoying kid isn’t me. It might be…I don’t really remember.

You can hear Adam and myself discussing the recording at one point too, me screaming out a few songs and I think you can hear all three (that’s including the Dunn that I speaking of) of us laughing during Daniel’s Dream pretty clearly. None of that is important, just wanted to make fun of Dunn.

The first half of the show was acoustic, which I was taping, and the second half was with a full band, which Adam taped. You can also watch a bunch of it here (also where I stole the above image from, thanks):

As a special bonus show, I am also going to post Daniel Johnston’s show from September 4th of 2007, which my cousin Johnny taped. I really wish I went to that show, I think I like it better. But Daniel is Daniel so I’ll take anything I can get. Johnny did a great job of taping and I thank him a thousand times because this show is just amazing.

So I don’t know a few of the track names, so I guessed a couple of time or just left it blank, if anyone knows, please comment, as that would be super duper.

As always,

I know this is the 2nd shortwaverockin series I am beginning, but I hope to continue them both. I will get on it. This is called shit we hear at concerts and it’s very self explanatory. here’s #1 from tonight. the opening band- spanish prisoners- for daniel johnston was on, a man behind us:

“they are trying so hard not to be pretentious- they are pretentious”

Adam here at Short Wave Rockin. This is the first compilation compiled by myself of bands that I found on MySpace that don’t suck. I thought long and hard about what to call it and I could only think about Zombies… So officially and amazingly, here is the Short Wave Rockin Zombie Dance Compilation #1.

Here is the plan: I want to start making compilations of tiny independent bands that I like and more importantly: allow their songs to be downloaded on MySpace. What the fuck is up with this? Why would an unsigned band not want their song to be downloaded off their MySpace? Stupid motherfuckers. Maybe they think the song will make them rich one day. I don’t know. Anyways, my process was basically going to bands I knew I liked and seeing who they were friends with and the chain went on for a long long time. When I got to a band I, 1) checked to see if they were either unsigned or on a truly independent label (none of those “indie” rock bullshit labels) 2) I clicked on download on their songs to see
If they passed these two steps, I gave em a listen and if I liked what I heard, I put them on this compilation.
It’s pretty simple, though it took forever because hardly anyone allows themselves to be downloaded.
If you are in a band and have a MySpace- please let me download your songs- what the fuck!?

This was done with absolutely no permission from any of the bands. I don’t know any of the bands and I even had enough restrain to not include my own band (even though we are now dead) I’m looking at the list now and I put the Dwarves on there! Haha, anyways, most of the bands are really small..haha how did that happen?

Also, I’d love it if you would make your own mix with the same goal of listening to new bands that don’t suck.

01. Bad Sports- Ooh Ooh Ooh
02. Charlie and the Moonhearts- Shucka Shucka
03. Vivian Girls- Damaged
04. Kamikaze Trio- Make This Place Mine
05. Uh-Oh- Lofi Disaster
06. Digger and the Pussycats- All Time Low
07. Dynamo- All the Beautiful Girls

09. Ape City R&B- Dynomite
10. The Fucking Eagles- Hurricane Lucy
11. American Relay- Curtain Call
12. Grafton- Gave You Up
13. Dead Ghosts- Bad Bones
14. Dwarves- Dominator live
15. Artimus Pyledriver- Gone to the Mountain

Tigs posted the biggest and greatest collection of Husker Du already, but I found this so I wanna add it on. Its odd that I found anything at all that Tigs doesn’t already have. He said he doesn’t have this, but I bet he does and he’s just being nice to me. So this is a outtake collection I got in a humungo Du torrent. It’s called the Up in the Air Studio Outtakes. The Zen Arcade takes are already in Tigs’ 3 disc ZEN outtake set posted last week. Anyone who isn’t Tigs probably cannot follow any of what I just said. Here is the tracklist:

1. Erase Today (New Day Riding)
2. Listen (New Day Riding)
3. Some Kind of Fun (Zen)
4. Gotta Lotta (Warehouse)
5. Can’t See You Anymore (Warehouse)
6. Do You Remember? (Warehouse)
7. Sore Eyes (Warehouse)
8. Dozen Beats Eleven (Zen)
9. All Work and No Play (Instrumental) (Candy Apple Gray)
10. Misty Modern Days (Instrumental) (Candy Apple Gray)
11. All This I’ve Done Before (Candy Apple Gray)
12. Just Be (Instrumental) (Candy Apple Gray)
13. You Can Live At Home (Warehouse)
14. I’ll Tell You Why Tomorrow (Warehouse)
15. Charity, Chastity (Warehouse)
16. She’s a Woman (And Now He is a Man) (Warehouse)
17. These Important Years (Living End)
18. Could You Be the One? (Living End)
20. Chartered Trips (Living End)

22. Never Talkin to you Again (Living End)
23. Gotta Lotta (Living End)

GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGIANTS!
Well… the New York Giants won the Superbowl. It still sounds kinda funny. The reality has yet to sink in. Have you seen the play?… THE PLAY. Man, it must suck to be a Pats fan. 5 Sacks on Brady. Tuck is the man. Oh well, the Giants Dynasty begins.

So Here it is. The post Tigs told you would happen last week or a couple weeks ago happens now. I’ve been in a Meat Puppets groove lately and so I want to put all the shit I’ve been collecting out there. Some of this stuff is already online on other sites, torrents, etc…. but I did some work and cut up some 1 wav shows into mp3s and other menial things I am desperately trying to mark as important and difficult. Since I have no idea who put these up originally- the credit goes to the band- for existing.

Actually, the drummer for the Meat Puppets- Derrick Bostrom- had some of these on the Puppets website. So the thanks does actually go to the band. I was really stupid and thought I was finding all these rare things in somewhat hard ways and I eventually tracked 2/3 of the stuff I found to 2 sites:

http://www.meatpuppets.com/puppets/
and
http://www.wohlers.org/puppets/snap/

One more thing. You know those lists of best guitarist and solos and such… I put Curt Kirkwood up there in my top 5 beside D Boon. I’d argue and do argue that he is one of the most inventive guitarists in rock n roll history. More important than his one instrument is the power trio. I’m a sucker for power trios and the meat puppets are one of the best. Fuck you Clapton Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce- this is the Meat Puppets.

There is one more thing that you need to download by the Meat Puppets.
Some fan made a collection of rarities called RARE MEAT and it’s amazing. Search for that. The soundtrack cover of “No Values” by Black Flag is great.

Enjoy your Meat Tuesday.

Well I guess I kind of threw Adam under the bus. We hadn’t discussed him posting the greatest post in the universe but I like to put that kind of pressure on him. I think he can handle it.

Well I know that Bob Marley’s birthday is a few days away but I wanted to get a jump on all the posts that will be happening. I love Bob Marley, I think that’s all I need to say. If you don’t know Bob Marley, well I don’t understand how but start listening to him.
I think I got all of these off a website a year ago, and I can’t remember where (even though it’s probably in the MP3 notes…but whatever). Also..just as a side note…YEAH GIANTS!!!! WOOOO!!!! ::dancin:: ::dancin:: ::dancing:: ::dancin::
So everyone this is Tigs saying peace, have a good one, smoke what ya got, congrats to the Giants and to all our fellow Giant fans (Adam is exstatic right now and can’t stop moving), celebrate however you do, and make Marley your Soundtrack this week…I know I will
