Thanks for the Postwar Quartet link.Nice popish garage sound. I don't know about the 15 yr old frontman (boy). It would make me feel like a justin beber fan or something.( not a comment on the music, just the age)
Just kidding,
Thanks,
Chris.

Hey James,
Thanks for sending the link to Horse Feathers. Nice use of the fiddle and I appreciate the DIY approach to video/ I see you're into Afghan Whigs? Great taste in music! :) I've seen them 3 times and def one of my fav bands. I'm looking forward to Bonde Redheads next Monday.

Hi James, did you make it last night for the meet-up event? I think I got there too late.
So if I send you my e-mail as posted above will you send me songs?

it seems that I might not only improve my music repertoire with you but also my English......seems like a good deal ;).
I will make it for next week meeting at Matilda’s, it can be pretty interesting.
I'm looking forward to see that list,....and hopefully I could burn some CDs to listen to during my commute, is driving me crazy....especially for the need of new stuff.

Yes, I made it to the show,..thought for very little..because I was too tired and just couldn't drag myself out of home..but I did, and I enjoyed it. I also listened one of the other bands "Craft spells" which I might explore a little bit more.
Too bad that you broke your Cranes album, if that's what you meant (sorry I am not an expert with phrasal verbs yet...but getting there).Cranes was a band that really really touched me like....since I first heard them, some years ago.
Devastations?
