059 Rummage Sale!

Hey everybody. Keep your browsers pointed right here because this week I'll be posting up a major rummage sale. Not only will we be selling a lot of posters and whatnot from the ol Braid tour, but Hey Mercedes is selling a lot of our old flight cases... and of course our trailer. I have a nice list going, so if you're interested, drop me an email with what you're looking for and i'll let you know what we've got...

For now, some more random mp3's! "Gangsterville" is the first track on Joe Strummer's debut solo album, Earthquake Weather. I love it because it's so rambling and has so many lyrics. It seems as though he's having trouble remembering the melody of the verse! But I still love it. I hated the rest of that album... And "Gasoline" is the first track on Karate's self-titled solo album... If you're only familiar with newer, jazzier Karate, I urge you to seek out their first 2-3 albums! You will not be disappointed.

I think tomorrow i'll do a Top 10 followup and on Tuesday... another mp3 from the City On Film record!!

MP3: Gangsterville - Joe Strummer

That first Karate record is so mesmerising. Something about the space in the arrangements just grabs hold. I'm not a huge fan of their later work but the first few releases are keepers. My favorite Karate song is 'Cherry Coke' which I have on 7" and will never part with...

Bob, do you still play 'It's been a blast' in any of your sets?
I was searching for live KoLS tracks and came across two tracks you played when Ben tells everyone to basically shut the hell up so he can hear you play, and that's the first song you play having been introduced. It's absolutely amazing. You then played 'Boy destroyers' and a third track that I can't find. Anyway, 'it's been a blast' is a great track. Does it appear on any of your CDs?
If you don't play it anymore you should think about bringing it back ;)
