The set they did at the T&G Fest was fierce -- as someone said, "twenty-three songs in twenty-five minutes, just like the old days." Brannon is still an amazing howler, no doubt about it. I wasn't able to see the show they did in Detroit a few months later, but a friend of mine whose opinion I trust said it was blazing. Tesco Vee opened, and was reportedly as amusingly embarassing as ever. He's doing Meatmen shows again, by the way.

And I agree with Adam I about American Music Club, their reunion album was excellent.

Did you see the reunited AMC live?

I love their records so I'd definitely be interested in seeing an AMC show.

It was kind of funny when minor 80s acts started doing it (hell, remember that VH1 show?), but it's worrying that "good" bands are starting with it...

I would love to see an Archers of Loaf reunion. Likewise Hum, Jawbreaker or Husker Du.

Oh - and they've got Korn's bass sound now, for some reason.

YES, you are correct. Crispy top, deep bottom Nu-Metal sound. Someone should send a consulting memo to Dave Allen. I really really like G04 and the recent live shows were intense when I was not cringing at the wet-ass Music Man Stingray potato-chip tweeter slap bass tone.

Seconded.

Mission of Burma are great live and on record.

Dinosaur were good live. I wasn't that into the new record.

Everyone else I've kind of ignored. They never come to my town, and they didn't seem worth the drive to Seattle or Vancouver.

I'd like to see Blake reunite with his voice.

I think that was the end of 2006 though.

A guitarist from Naked Raygun has just joined a hardcore punk band with Dan Yemin of (Kid Dynamite, Lifetime) calle Paint It Black. They're actually really good. I'd post a link but computer licks taint and I won't show any text when I right click anything.

THey have some songs from their upcoming album on myspace. Sounds good in my opinion.

Good call on Jawbreaker. 24 Hour Revenge Therapy and Dear You are really good albums.
