Who would of thought this combo would have worked? Its nice and makes me want to kick a donkey or cuddle with a puppy.
If you haven't already figured it out this is Tegan from .....wait for it.......Tegan & Sara. Been a big fan of theirs for a long time and this year started to really listen to Against Me! I just realized you guys prolly don't care....enjoy!

These guys are pretty fresh and home grown here in North Carolina. Originally from Greensboro, they now live like 20 min from me in Concord. They got their start playing here in Charlotte. ....and I thought there wasn't much going on in Charlotte. OK I just made the executive decision to make this post a two-for-one special......

Pick of the Week 2.5



Title: Despite What You've Been Told
Artist: Two Gallants
Album: Two Gallants

So...this song is compliments of Kristopher Robin. I actually saw these guys last year when they opened for Against Me! in Charleston, SC. At the time I had not heard their music. I love hearing a new band for the first time live. It really shows you what they are made of. The song I wanted to post was "Ribbons 'Round My Tongue" but there is no video for that one. Well I will put that one on my box.net  account and put up a link for those interested in downloading it.
So these guys are on Saddle Creek and it seems that they can make a video. Even though I think clowns are a bit scary. I can somehow relate to this sad clown.

btw...
From now on if I have the song I post in my iTunes library, I will link the file to the title of the post for your downloading pleasure.
goodtimes.

Pick of the Week 2


Title: I Never Wanted You
Artist: Headphones
Album: Headphones


I heard this song by a band called Headphones......then my musical investigation uncovered that this is the dude from Pedro the Lion, David Bazan. This is his post Pedro project and is more secular (not religious). They are currently on hiatus and only released one album in 2005. I need this album.....i love this song and i just heard it for the first time 5 minutes ago. Let me know what you think.
