Sinister: Dave Matthews

[Scott Turner]

      *---*      HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES    *---*

Howdy Sam,

I was sentenced to 4 years at the University of Richmond betwen 90 and 94
and used to see Dave Matthews every wednesday night at the Flood Zone with
at first about five other people, then 10, then 20, then 50, then100, and
then all of a sudden he's playin' arenas.

It was so fun when he was just a nobody.

Everyone get down on one hopeless-unbeliever-knee and pray that this
doesn't happen to our beloved Belle and Sebastian!!!!!!  ARRRRRRGGGGG, how
that would suck.

So being the proper Virginia boy, I trekked to Nissan Pavilion to see
Dave Matthews play the other night.  First off, I've never seen anyone
so cocked while on stage before.  Dave was glass-eyed and a bit slow in
singing.  They took about a one-minute break between each song for the
first five or six.  Of course, the wafting smell of pot didn't help
either.  I felt like I was at a Dead show.  Nonetheless, it was fun
anyway.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned the Hang-ups, but I recommend them
if you at all like P!O!O!.  The lyrics are substandard -- then again
after discovering groups like B&S and Trash Can Sinatras most lyrics
seem inconsequential -- but the music is very, very catchy.
Picked up the new Aluminum Group album a couple of weeks ago.  I
somewhat disagree with an earlier post regarding them.  I don't think
they quite sound like B&S.  They sound a little like an early '80s
new-wave (similar to Blow Monkeys) sometimes loungy/synth outfit.  Very
sensitive lyrics, perhaps that is the area of similarity with B&S that
the person was thinking of.  A couple of songs sound quite a bit like
Magnetic Fields.

Anyone hear the new Catchers album?
