If anyone hears of another Hum reunion show, then please post that information to this forum if it's not too much trouble. I would be very interested in attending such a show.

I've seen Hum "bring it" on a number of occasions. I'd be interested to see if they can still bring it.

I like this band Castor as well.

Also, The Convocation Of... What happened to these guys?

Love Life was a pretty good group.
Ever hear Jaks?
Love Life was the singer and guitar player from Jaks plus the bass player from UOA and The Great Unraveling (both with Tonie from Convocation Of...) and this guy Dave who is now the drummer for Celebration.
Birdland was just Sean and Katrina with him just playing organ.
To my knowledge, they're playing some of the same songs so I don't know why they changed their name to Celebration.

Guy from Convocation Of... now records music that is actually good under the name Entrance and Tonie and George played a show recently I think.
Don't really care too much.
They're assholes.

A friend of mine went to the Hum show last month, and it didn't sound like the best circumstances to see them (or any band). It was an outdoor tent show in a parking lot in the middle of the day sponsored by Budweiser.

Jay Ryan is in pretty regular contact with Matt from Hum, and Mr. Ryan would surely share any Hum news with this forum.

I second these recommendations.

The singer,Soo Young Park, formed a band called Ee. I think they're from San Fransisco, but not sure.

Ee are a fine rock band. I made a poll about them and no one voted or said anything. I've been losing sleep over it for almost a whole year.

In any case, my vote goes to Codeine, who were one of the best bands ever.

These guys were incredible live. Their first couple of records were great.

I also miss Nice Strong Arm. A lot.

See Love Life and Celebration info above.


What happened to Nirvana?
I know dude shot himself but why couldn't they just get someone to replace him.
Eddie Vedder would've been a good choice if you ask me.

I adore this band.

Anyway, James and Patrick are in +/-, Fontaine is in The Fontaine Toups, and Richard is in Whysall Lane with Adam from Jawbreaker. Versus still plays a show here and there. This website is a good place to look for updates.
