Moderately short post that isn't important.

I guess for post two of today I'm just going to throw out a myspace page and let you choose to go to it or not.

These dudes aren't really my friends in real life, but I have met them and they are all friends with one of my friends so I guess technically they are my friends. Anyway, they are good. Every song they play is good. My favorite song on their myspace is "Piece of mind". "Firewall" is their big single round these parts, but like I said, all of their shit is good. It's the best part of 90's catchy rock with blazing guitar parts and all the good stuff about being alive right now. You won't be disappointed to hear these dudes.

I would like to point out that all the lead guitar is played by the guy singing. Holy jeez. He is awesome.

(Listen very closely for the cover at the end of the song...)

I'll try to post more things soon.

What up Detroit?

So here is what's going on. Mark is working on a new website layout, it is pretty badass looking. I suck at updating the blog but this is kind of the base because no one really knows about it currently but the new site links to it so maybe people will waste time here. I think I will go with multiple posts today.

#1. Seven Mary Three

I don't really have to say much about this band. Yes is it the same band that played "Waters Edge" and "Cumbersome" and those songs are badass. However, I've always been a huge fan of their acoustic stuff like "Lame", "Lucky" and what ever else they played acoustic. Their newest cd "dayandnight driving" or however they hell they spelled it blew me away. This is one of those cd's that you can listen to all the way through. All killer and no filler, I like to call it (unncessicary Sum 41 refference but I went there). My favorites are as follows:








Jason Ross has a great beard. The songs are well written. They still rock the faces off of everyone they come across.

It should be noted that I couldn't find my favorite song from the new cd "Things I stole". It's awesome.

More today I guess.

F(g) - the metal band name for dorks.

So I didn't post anything Saturday and Mark has already yelled at me for it so I will try to get my act together and post a bit more in the upcoming days.
Today however is not one of those days.
Today is more of a "Courtney does shameless self promotion" type of day.

The notorious BST is getting back into the swing of things. Really I just booked a show in a side room at the Dame and I'm excited about it. I guess that is it really.

Things I miss today:

Sarah Coleman took down all of her music a long time ago and I miss it. She sang very well. I have some stuff we recorded for her but we can't do anything with it because we don't want to distribute her crap without permission. Lame. You guys would enjoy it a lot (of course by you guys I mean myself, because I'm convinced that no one else reads this lame excuse for a blog).

A decent place to play in Richmond that doesn't involve drunk frat boys yelling for "Free Bird".
Livewire, why did you leave us?

I will try to update this more, specifically with bands that aren't part of POK that I like.

I guess that is all.
We out.

(If you don't get the title it is read as F of G...or effigy...it isn't that cool.)

Saturday is alright for fighting.

So it's Saturday, so I'm a liar. I guess I will do some more blogtation. Today will be.....

NeverShoutNever!

Here is a list of reasons it is good:
1)Beats that are so catchy you will most likely ...like them
2)He sings his own background vocals.
3)Amy likes the twinkly piano in the background of BigCityDreams
4)Stephanie thinks that he sounds like the Format
5)Mark dances to the white boy funkiness
6)I like the overall danceability
7)He sounds like a young Matt from Relient K

I should try harder to write these blogs.

Anyhow, go here and listen and buy stuff from here:

And now for something unrelated.



I guess that will wrap up this weekend. More by next Saturday.

courtney (is lame)

We can both be girls at the same time...

Today I will talk about Jessica Lea Mayfield. She is awesome. I guess that is all really. I would suggest that you go download her cd from itunes or buy it from her website www.myspace.com/jlmayfield. I would suggest that you also buy her vinyl, because it looks totally awesome.
She sounds and looks like an angel that was hurt by some heartless bastard, and her lyrics reflect it. Her voice is a breath of fresh air into a music scene that sounds pretty much the same. I love her, so you should too.

Tracks that I like a lot:



So go support JLM and buy some stuff from her. She seems cool and her voice slays me.

I'm sure there will be more posts this week.

courtney.
