To-nite, one nite only MOGWAI and Bardo Pond at the Showbox
This will be the 2nd time since late March I will have seen the Scottish Guitar Army in action. (No Pan Sonic this time tho')
And thanks to jennie, I have now learned that there is in existence a recorded version of Mogwai covering "Don't Cry", as performed by the incomparable Guns 'N' Fuckin' Roses. Those of you who have fast connections, burners, etc, look on Gnutella for it. I wannit.
I've heard so much about Mogwai, but have never had a chance to check them out.. hmm.. note to self... *sends email to home address to pick something up online*
I ask because I had only the purpleandblue, under much protest from my mom [newparentaladvisorystickererabeginnings]
and so the purpleandblue was my love song with my first longterm boy my freshman year of high school. O how romantic it was supposed to be when he wrote me song lyrics to several of the tunes before we got together. "Estranged" was supposed to make me know his heart was mine. (?)
Alright, alright, he was 16. I thought it was Rad. So rockandroll.
If you've not had luck finding it, the cover of Don't Cry is hiding out at http://www.takemesomewherenice.co.uk/audio.htm, along with some other oddities (a Spaceman 3 cover, a Black Sabbath cover...)
