That Saturday at T&G when there was so much amazing music, by many bands I had waited yrs to finally see, the New Year's performance is always the one I think about. They more then held they're own playing with bands I had only daydreamed about ever seeing. I was taken aback by how great they were live.

I always liked Bedhead, but there is something about the New Year's music, that while being similar, is so different and for whatever reason is even more appealing to me.

Salut, the New Year and their amazing music!

Not Crap!

'Fess up, you were inspired by the sheer beardness of the band.

I can only dream of attaining the beardiness of this band.

Their songs are anthems. I cannot get weary of them although I must have listened to them several hundred times now.


My favourites are "Alter ego" and "Plan B"...

Their music is so relaxed and beautiful. The lyrics are great.
Hope I get to see them live sometime...

The New Year are the opposite of crap...

Fingers crossed for European dates....

No Joke: I knew a bunch of kids in high school who would brag about how cool they were 'cause they knew these guys.

Imagine that! No West Coast tour from a band that I would like to see. And because the bands that I'd like to see are such a rarity here and when they play it's such a sought after event, the shows sell out within an hour and for far more cash than I ever have to spend.

I loathe living here.

No west coast, but a show in NYC dangerously close to my birthday by the Kadane/Bottomless Pit axis of kickass.

My journey into fogeyness wil be a little easier.

Boo hoo to all of you. Fuck if anyone EVER fucking plays Atlanta. I know it's a shit place to tour, but fuck people. HELP ME OUT!

They toured on the west coast last June, a few months before you moved west I believe. I saw them in Seattle and they were excellent.

Most of my current favorite bands are based in the midwest or east coast, so I rarely (if ever) get to see them. Hey, at least we've got TWO Blood Brothers offshoots to keep us busy? Eh?
