Live at the Doug Fir in Portland, Pixies frontman Flank Black (aka Black Francis). I’ll admit I’ve enjoyed his solo stuff almost as much as the Pixies. Almost. (And now that Kim has left the band, it’s actually kinda even. She will be greatly missed, though thankfully she’s still doing…
Live at the Roseland, Portland, OR (All sources provided by Chris F./Flaming Lips) The Flaming Lips stop in Portland and they bring their Midwestern oddball flair along with them. I imagine Wayne has a this hazy aura that permeates a large orbit around him…come to think of it, I’m sure…
Sort of recall where these sources came from, considering the venue/country. Since I don’t want to mis-credit anyone, I’ll leave it alone for now, but I’m nearly sure I know who sent me the sources and asked that I put this together for them. I do know it was done…
I know there’s video of this, because I edited it and put it out there about 7 or 8 years ago. So I guess I need to dig through my archives and pull that up, post it on YouTube, etc. But until then, here’s the audio mixed/blended from the soundboard…

Opening for Yo La Tengo at Fabrik in Hamburg, Germany, Lambchop lay down the proper energy for the night, the town, the setting — and eventually the headliner. But it’s their time on stage, and they don’t waste a single second of it. This was basically my initiation into Lambchop,…
Gotta get some YLT back up here, considering many of the sources of these shows are lovingly provided by YLTfan (aka Chris, aka elusively busy Portland guy) So, Yo La Tengo in Hamburg, Germany way back in 2000 (as provided by one Pavemalk, aka Rainer). Fabrik is a killer venue…

Sonic Youth has rocked my world since the first time I heard “Shadow of a Doubt”. And there is no doubt I still love their music from the beginning to the very apparent end. They should be rejoiced for what they gave us. Like this. I put this together some…
One of the best bands on the planet. Sure, oddities follow Anton and his chosen cohorts over the years, and strange left/right and quick u-turns in their sound have alienated a few of the hardcore fans, but he’s not lost me yet. Not yet (and listening to the demo tracks…
