Not sure if any of you were/are Bikini Kill or Le Tigre fans but this is a really great documentary on Netflix (along with the Darlene Love doc---this is a must see).. http://beardedgentlemenmusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/The-Punk-Singer-A-Movie-About-Kathleen-Hanna-Poster-199x300.jpg

The video was shot by Joshua Black Wilkins. Terrific songwriter, photographer, rock video-maker.

Here's one of his he made with Amanda Shires:

i think the Beck album is good but i don't think as good as Sea Change ...

So hard to imagine Cooley shooting a video!

It also doesn't say anything about profit maximization. Let's say a band can sell out a 1,000 person club at $30 and can sell 800 tickets at $40. Which should it do? It depends. For example, maybe those extra 200 people buy enough extra merch to make the overall take higher at the lower price. Or m...

Jason did make the leap to the next level in 2013. No one is disputing that. (My quibble is that the momentum began with Here We Rest which was the record that got him on several people's radar like David Letterman and Paul Schaffer and all that culminated with an outstanding record.) The question ...

If the original question was from a supply/demand point of view, which I think it was, then Bill's premise is exactly correct. Until they're selling out ahead of time, they can't raise prices, right? (Homecoming, etc, doesn't count). I'm not sure how much control they have over ticket prices? From a...

Ok, yesterday I booked the pre-game. I have reserved the party area at The Silver Ball Museum for the afternoon before the show. m The Silver Ball Museum has around 100 vintage pinball machines. I am trying to get some swag so we can have a pinball tournament to raise some money for Nuci's Space. W...

I don't know how far back Maron's free archives go, but his Todd Snider and J. Mascis interviews were pretty good too, from what I remember. I get the sense that deep down (like most of us) he's a frustrated rock star, so his interviews with musicians tend to be pretty good. you have to have the pr...

Funny you mention Stern. I've gotten in many arguments over the years with people who think Howard is just some shock jock, but he's extraordinary at what he does. When artists make the rounds and do a kajillion interviews when they have a new project out, a Howard interview stands out and the rest...

Cole--you gotta get familiar with Marc Maron! The Jason and PH interviews were incredibly sincere and interesting (but I'm a huge fan so maybe I'm biased). He does blather on in the beginning but that's very...NY..introspective, insecure, self-depracating, va'klempting.. http://youtu.be/m_p0Da1JznM ...

Jim James has covered Dylan and probably the best Dylan cover I've ever heard--(I'm obviously biased). I just listened to JJ's Goin' To Acapulco (if that's the one you're speaking of). It was very very good, but Hendrix's All Along The Watchtower is still better. 1. Hendrix-Watchtower 1a.-Byrds-Mr....

I would possibly break my self-imposed ban on arena shows to see this. I've had the same ban in effect since 2009.I broke it last summer to take my son to see the Stones. Stick to your guns my man, Fleetwood Mac ain't worth it . You don't understand, dude. The wifey is a HUGE Fleetwood Mac fan. If ...

Penny Lane

I know Maron is a comedian, but for my money he's the best damn interviewer in the world. I'm lucky that he has good taste, cause he's had some great musicians on. It's just like listening in on a conversation, and Marc makes most of his guests feel comfortable so they'll talk about things they wou...

Zip City wrote:If the songs are good, I couldn't care less who wrote the lyrics. Mermaid Ave and New Multitudes aren't good to me because they're Guthrie's lyrics, and an album of Guthrie lyrics with songs by Justin Bieber and Lady GaGa would be awful.

wait, isn't that a complete contradiction?

Penny Lane

Totally agree. I'm tired of these collaborations. MOF were friends who wanted to collaborate, make a great album (which funny enough was not really folk) and tour. (Plus Will J) NM were a group of talented musicians who wrote the sh*t out of Woody's poetry (Plus Will J). This doesn't need to be done...

Just saw that Jim James, Taylor Goldsmith, Marcus Mumford, Elvis Costello, and T Bone Burnett are doing a "New Multitudes"-esque record with 24 recently surfaced sets of Dylan lyrics What...no Flea? No Dave Grohl? It's not that different a lineup from New Multitudes or Monsters of Folk. Y...

Is Patrick gonna leave MMJ, Penny? I think he should. It probably pays pretty well, but his talents are being wasted. This stuff is way better than the last 2 MMJ albums, but no way. Ha. He knows where his bread is buttered. Don't see why he can't do both considering Carl's solo album and all of Ji...

Most exciting new album coming out: (Patrick from MMJ + Hacienda)

Tommy Stinson sitting in with the Old 97's as they cut the title track from their upcoming new record. FvVNOQeASrA I guess they're on ATO now? I saw Rhett's solo recently playing the new stuff and I'll state for the last time, I just don't relate to their music at all. Appreciate them, yes, I just ...

I just posted about this on the wrong thread (music doc thread)--didn't see this! I thought it was great--i've always appreciated them although there are only a handful of songs I really enjoy. I knew they had a message and that Neil's lyrics were thoughtful, but music wise I only knew about Permane...

Finally watched this. Loved it! I've always been fascinated by Neil Peart but this sheds a lot more light on things.
