Just to make this clearer, in case anyone wants the tickets, they are only for the Taunton-London train, not the other way. And I think they're only valid after 9.30 am, but that shouldn't be a problem.

Anyone need these?

And planning to take the train back to London from Taunton? I was just at the Dirty Three one with my girlfriend and our return tickets weren't checked. That means they haven't been used. They are valid until May 24, so they'll still be good after the second ATP. It would be stupid to not use them, ...

I stayed at Arlington House for a few nights last February. It's a big hostel, but it was pretty quiet as well, so I slept well. Don't know how much you intend to sleep, but it's at least nice to have the option, no? The room was a little run down, but nothing too bad. The staff was friendly and the...

I got the new EP in the mail today.

I should get this in a couple of days. Really looking forward to hearing it.

Oh yeah, NOT CRAP.

Well, most of these have already been mentioned but these I have liked a lot. In no particular order: Bastro - Antlers: Live 1991 Shipping News - Flies the Fields Zu/Mats Gustafsson - How to Raise an Ox Earth - Hex; or Printing in the Infernal Method Matt Sweeney and Bonnie "Prince" Billy - Superwol...

I guess that my favorite Finnish bands are Deep Turtle (R.I.P.) and Kroko. So fucking good. Pentti, who p...

Hey Angriest_Dragon, and others too, if you are interested in some Finnish bands, but can't find their records, I might be able to help as I live here. Finding some releases is pretty hard here as well, but you never know. So just PM me or something and let me know what you are looking for, and I'll...

As I have mentioned before, I knew Michael only through the great music of Silkworm and his posts here. Unfortunately I never got meet him. One of my favorite posts by spoot was a picture of a sunset. I'm sure that at least some you remember it. You can find it if you make a search for sunset and au...

This breaks my heart.

My condolences to everyone who knew these three people personally.

I knew Michael only through his music and his posts here, but I will miss him dearly.

Town and Country

They are from Chicago and have released some quite beautiful records on Thrill Jockey.

Does anyone know if they're still around?
