The-Replacements tour15After reforming back in 2013, The Replacements have finally announced a U.S. tour entitled “Back By Unpopular Demand.”

The Mats will play a string of 13-dates, starting in Seattle on April 9, and finishing up in Philly on May 9.  Some of the notable stops include – an April 16 show at the Hollywood Palladium, and a May 5 show at Stage AE in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  Tickets for the Hollywood show went on sale today, use the presale code BEATBOX.  Tickets are $69, of course they are.  Tickets for the Pittsburgh show are on sale to the general public on February 20, mark your Day-Timer.

The Hollywood show takes place on what is traditional known as Coachella Arrival Day, the Thursday prior to the Coachella Festival weekend.  My trip up to the Hollywood Palladium for The Mats, and then off to Indio, California, aka The Promised Land, should make for a long but very memorable day.  The group played the 2014 Coachella Festival almost exactly a year ago to the day.

Up to this point, the Westerberg and Stinson led band has mostly played festival shows over the last two years.  The band has left open the possibility of a new album down the road.  We shall see!

Coachella Unveils 2015 Lineup

15/01/06 at 9.01pm   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

Coachella 2015 PosterThe 2015 Coachella Music Festival lineup was unveiled this morning by the festival tweeting out an image of the lineup and the phase “For Those About To RT.” Tweeting the lineup, how fun!

The three night festival features identical lineups playing over two weekends. Weekend 1 takes place April 10-12, while Weekend 2 happens April 17-19. As usual, Arrival Day is held the Thursday night prior to the festival and Reflection Day remains the Monday morning after the extravaganza.

For those who care, the irrelevant headliners include: AC/DC on Friday, Jack White on Saturday, and Drake on Sunday.  If you’re considering going and don’t have a ticket, you have until Noon January 7 to consider, so consider fast.

After having roughly 12 hours to digest the lineup, here are a few random thoughts on the 2015 poster:

*The omission of The Black Keys can only mean one thing, there’s a new house band at Coachella, congratulations Florence and The Machine.

*Where are the usual 80’s Heritage Acts? The festival is known for always having a handful 80’s bands. Beware Cool Dads, you’re not welcome here anymore.

*It’s obvious that the font in my world is not the same size as the font in Coachella’s world. In my world, bands like Parquet Courts, The Orwells, Cloud Nothings, and KASABIAN are in much larger font, just sayin.

*For the second year in a row line 2 is incredibly weak. Where are bands like Spoon, TV On The Radio, The National, The New Pornographers, and Death Cab? Out with old, in with the new?

*Kudos to Coachella for procuring Ride, I believe the Weekend 1 show could possibly be their first reunion show.

*I’m sure Paul said “We gotta get Run The Jewels, make sure we get Run The Jewels.”

*Those relieved to see Lana Del Rey left off the poster this year should worry.  Ms. Del Rey is performing under the moniker Florence and The Machine, see it?

*In addition to Cool Dads, indie buzzbands are not welcome at Coachella anymore, how sad.  Remember when the bottom half of the poster used to be populated with them?

*Brilliant move by placing The Cribs on the bottom line on Day 3. Now, when the band cancels again… its easy on, easy off.

*The Libertines and Katie Bush would have been a nice treat

*I can just taste the Spicy Pie.

*I believe I had 11 bands from my Coachella 2015 Perfect Poster Wish List make the actual poster. Please check my math so I can buy myself a 9-dollar Heineken Light.

*Is Circa Survive EMO? How bout Brand New?

*What’s the big deal with Tame Impala?

*Nice to see the return of a little chillwave.

*Speaking of chillwave, the Steely Dan chillwave classic “Hey 19” is sure to be included on the mixtape.

*This is like the fifth year in a row that Day 3 is the weakest day, WTF.

That said, Can’t Wait!

I will begin to unveil my TOP 40 Coachella Bands starting on February 25th.

Tears For Fears – Belly Up Tavern – Solana Beach – Tonight!!!

14/12/10 at 2.23pm   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

Tears For FearsShout, Shout, Let It All Out!

GoINDEEpMusic will be out at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach tonight for an evening with Tears For Fears.  Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith will bring their eighties synthpop to San Diego County’s premiere live music venue.

I was lucky enough to check my electronic mail the moment the show was announced and scooped up a ticket immediately. Tickets went like hot cakes within minutes, so if you hesitated, you’re shit out of luck.

Tears for fear SFTBCI’ve adored this band from the moment I heard songs from their 1983 release The Hurting.  I can remember laying in bed listening to Rock Over London when I first heard songs like “Change” and “Pale Shelter.”  For those unfamiliar with Rock Over London, it was a syndicated radio program that usually aired sometime around midnight on Sunday night back in the eighties.  The show offered up some of the best British music that wasn’t available here in the States at the time.  After a lengthy kickass playlist, the show would conclude with the Top 5 songs on the U.K. charts that particular week.  The show is fully responsible for my love and appreciation of the British bands of the early to mid eighties, especially Tears For Fears.   I used to go to mall and ask the clueless associates working at National Record Mart, “do you have any Tears For Fears?” and they would always respond with “never heard of them.”

By the time band release the 1985 follow-up LP Songs From The Big Chair, their music became slightly more accessible and I was first in line to pick up a copy of SFTBC on cassette tape.  Here’s a fun fact about DJ Deep, the first compact disc I ever purchased after adding a CD player to my stereo system was The Hurting.  Tonight’s show is a long time coming…  I’ve never seen TFF before, and I can’t believe I will be taking it all in at my favorite live music venue, the Belly Up Tavern.  No word if there’s an opening act tonight.  Can’t wait!

Two weeks ago, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their blockbuster album “Songs From The Big Chair,” Tears For Fears convened in the historic LA Studio The Village to perform some of their biggest hits for an intimate audience of 50 superfans. Watch the performance below, and listen to an expanded version (including a  cover of the Radiohead tune “Creep”) only on Spotify Landmark.

Over the past few months, I’ve been compiling a list of bands that I want to see play the 2015 Coachella Music Festival, through my posts.  Until Coachella unveils the official line-up, I will continue to make Frequent Updates to my Perfect Poster.  By no means is this a prediction or confirmation list, that exercise is conducted by the fine folks over at the Consequence Of Sound.  In order for a band to be added to the poster, I must mention the band in an upcoming post.  Remember, my game my rules.  Below is a list of bands that have already been mentioned and are on my Wish List.  All Systems Go.

14/11/22 at 11.04am   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

Yo Gabba GabbaGoINDEEpMusic will be out at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles for a night of family fun with Yo Gabba Gabba.  DJ Lance and his sidekicks Muno, Foofa, Brobee, Toodee, and Plex hit the stage at 5pm today.

The coolest rock show on the planet for children (and parents too) has been on tour this fall making stops in 30 U.S. cities.

The live performance was created from the Nickelodeon television show by the same name.  The television program debuted back in 2007, and is known for incorporating the indie music culture into the episodes.  Some of the noteworthy artists to appear on the program include:  The Shins, Of Montreal, Mates Of State, The Killers, The Faint, MGMT, and believe it or not, Jimmy Eat World.

Music Is Awesome!

Slowdive – Ace Hotel – Los Angeles – Tonight!!!

14/11/08 at 11.08am   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

Slowdive2GoINDEEpMusic will be out at the Ace Hotel tonight in the friendly surroundings of downtown Los Angeles for an evening of elegant shoegaze with English indie rockers Slowdive.  The pedal pushing phenoms reunited earlier this year after splitting up in 1995.

The shoegazing specialists were formed in Reading by Neil Halstead and Rachel Goswell back in 1989, and the two share guitar/vocal responsibilities.  The rest of the quintet consists of bassist Nick Chaplin, drummer Adrian Sell, and additional guitarist Christian Savill.  Over a six year career the band released three critically-acclaimed albums along with a handful of extended plays.  The band credits Pink Floyd and the Sex Pistols as their influence.  For those that enjoy fun facts, Slowdive was once known as The Pumpkin Fairies early on.

The band has been on tour since May, playing 27 music festival, not quite Outkast numbers, but still impressive.   The North American leg of the tour concludes with two nights at the Ace Hotel in Los Angeles.  The setlist for the reunion tour was constructed by an online survey, Halstead says that “kids” could vote on what they wanted Slowdive to play.  Call me crazy, but the first “kid” I see tonight will be the only “kid” I see tonight.  The five-piece plans to return home and hit the studio in hopes of putting together a new album, we’ll see where that goes.  In a recent interview, Mr. Halstead indicated that the band has no aspirations of becoming a Heritage Act, or hitting the Heritage circuit.  With a limited catalogue, the band has no use for playing the same songs night after night.

The Duluth, Minnesota slowcore band Low will provide support tonight.

Pet Aid 2014: Portland, Oregon

14/08/13 at 7.54pm   /   by deepster19   /   4 Comments

Pet aidThe 2014 Pet Aid fundraising concert event was held last Sunday afternoon in the scorching heat of Portland, Oregon in the beautiful surroundings of Sellwood Riverfront Park.  Portland’s alt-rock radio station 94.7 fm coordinated the event and donated a portion of proceeds to benefit Multnomah County Animal Services (MCAS). MCAS is the only open door shelter in Portland, and is the primary agency responsible for lost pet care, animal abuse investigations and animal rescue.

20140810_130154The fine folks at the local radio station chose some of today’s hottest buzz-worthy alt-rock bands to join in the festivities, so I’m told.  The day got started with the Stockholm, Sweden synth-pop band NONONO (pictured left), lead by frontwoman Stina Wäppling.  The Swedish group set the tone for the day when they got the prompt arriving crowd jumping with their electro-pop dancefloor anthem “Pumpin Blood,” off their debut album We Are Only What We Feel, released one month ago.

Next up was the Orange County, California quartet The Colourist.  Someone should inform the band that it’s only cool to purposely misspell the word “color” if you’re from anywhere other than the U.S.  The current pride and joy of the OC provided a relaxing set tunes from the band’s debut self-titled LP that was released back in March.20140810_153134

The highlight of the day came from the third band to take the stage, SKATERS, a New York City garage rock band.  The group performed a high energy set of tunes mostly from the band’s debut album Manhattan, including the single “Schemers” and the crowd pleasing”Deadbolt.”  Look for SKATERS (pictured right} this fall when they come to a city near you, they’re scheduled to provide support for The Orwells upcoming North American tour. SKATERS by far delivered the best set of the afternoon, and I can only assume they were all the rage around the water cooler down at the 94.7 studio headquarters on Monday.

20140810_164355 (1)Wild Cub (pictured left), the Nashville, Tennessee by way of Portland, Oregon band had the unfortunate task of following the SKATERS set.  The indie-pop quintet did their best to provide a fun, foot tapping set led by multi-instrumentalist frontman Keegan DeWitt, a former resident of the city of roses.  Mr. DeWitt’s set not only included the alt-rock chart topping single “Thunder Clatter,” but was also laced with Wikipedia style Portland banter between every tune.

By the time Bear Hands (pictured bottom right) hit the stage for their late afternoon headlining set, many of the Portland hipsters had just about enough of alt-rock and the sun for one day.  What was left of the crowd were treated to the Brooklyn based band’s  hit single “Giants,” as well as other soon to be alt-rock classics from their 2014 sophomore album “Distraction.”20140810_181344

Thirst was quenched by Laurelwood Brewing Co., a local craft brew fave . The beer garden was packed all day long as the brewery’s offerings included their Mother Lode Golden Ale, Pale Pony ISA, Free Range Red, and the delicious Workhorse IPA.  Laurelwood Owner Mike De Kalb and his staff serviced a nonstop flow people the entire day with a generous pour of 5 dollar beers.  Yeah, you read that right, good beer for only 5 bucks, instead the usual crappy beer for 9 bucks at a music fest, what a novel concept.  It appeared as if the beer was more popular than the music, I could be wrong.

Failure Wrap Up Successful ‘Tree of Stars Tour’ – Record New Music

14/06/21 at 9.06pm   /   by present-tense   /   0 Comment

Failure - Marquee 0

Present-Tense here contributing another article so Daver will stop attributing his love for Lana Del Rey to me. I think he’s got some weird projection issues or something. I mean, I did check out some of Lana’s new stuff on Spotify and it wasn’t too bad, but that was just because Daver wouldn’t lay off. “Ultraviolence” helped me get to sleep in under 10 minutes, so it has that going for it.

Anyways…the band Failure wrapped up their successful ‘Tree of Stars’ Tour in Hollywood, California on June 18th. I had the privilege of catching two of their shows on this tour and I have to say the 17 year wait was worth it.

I got into Failure  just as they were in the process of breaking up. I actually caught of snippet of their tune ‘Stuck On You’ during a segment for the movie “Independence Day” on the 1997 MTV Movie awards. Yeah, that was pretty random. From that point on, I’ve been a little obsessed over them. Not to the level I am with Pearl Jam, but pretty damn close.

Failure - CinquantraThe first of the two Failure shows I attended were part of the Maynard James Keenan 50th Birthday party celebration called Cinquantra. My buddy and I (Sean) were lucky to get tickets to the May 11th show (Mothers Day). Failure played 9 songs, but the uniqueness of the event led many people to experience their music more than they would have if it they were a traditional opening band. Failure was dispersed throughout the evening and it was to hear them perform ‘The Nurse Who Loved Me’ with Maynard. So even though they played 9 songs, it left me wanting more.

My luck continued to run as they announced a show at the Marquee Theater in Tempe Arizona on June 13th. I knew that as soon as this show was announced I would get to see this band for the first time up close. I dragged the wife to this concert as she’s been hearing me go on and on about this band for the last 12 years to her. I mean she went to see Year of the Rabbit with me when they opened for Pete Yorn (Ken Andrews side project), so she had to go with me to this show right?

Failure opened up their Marquee show with a 20 minute videFailure - Marquee 3o of film clips that inspired them over the years. Clips included some scenes from “2001: A Space Odyssey”, “The Spy Who Loved Me” (which inspired their music video for ‘Stuck on You’ and “Solaris”.

When they took the stage they launched into ‘Another Space Song’ one of my favorites from “Fantastic Planet”. Throughout the evening “Fantastic Planet” featured heavily into their set. A few “Magnified” tracks appeared (‘Undone’, ‘Frogs’, ‘Small Crimes’ and ‘Wet Gravity’) as well as a few from “Comfort” (‘Macaque’ and ‘Screen Man’). The band played for around 2 hours which was great, and throughout the evening they looked like they were having fun. Ken Andrews and Greg Edwards could be seen switching instruments (Bass/Lead Guitar) and drummer Kelli Scott seemed to have four feet. The bass drum and bass guitar were turned way up leading me to almost have an irregular heartbeat.

Failure Marquee 1At the merch table they were selling E.Ps which included 4 live tracks (2 of which were recorded at the Tool show back in March) and a new song called ‘Come Crashing’. I happened to secure one of these EPs so if people are interested I can perhaps give you a listen. As of this post, Failure has released another new track titled ‘The Focus’.

Here’s to more Failure and for more people hearing about this amazing band.

Review: Lana Del Rey 5-30-14 – Shrine Expo Hall

14/06/01 at 9.41am   /   by Tracy P   /   1 Comment

Lana Del ReySummertime arrived at promptly 10:10 Friday night at the Shrine’s Expo Hall. Floral crowned dolls and guys galore (surprisingly) dotted the hall as we squished in to await the sultry voice and spicy lyrics of Lana Del Rey. Prior to the main event, we shared the paradox that is Father John Misty – this concert goer thoroughly enjoyed his newer song “Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings” and a few others!

Then it was time!  There she stood- Babydoll dress, wavy auburn locks, with her tattooed hands gripping the mike. She looked so at home up there. She stood there and sang for hours… she just sang. Hauntingly, flawlessly. Lana’s a hard worker- a true professional in the business! I think she has retracted her talons – she’s done clawing her way to the top – I assure you many new Lana fans were born Friday night! Nice work, young lady!

062I have to comment on rights of passage. I was with my 14-year old daughter and my brother. He acquired the tickets for us for my daughter’s upcoming 8th grade graduation and birthday (okay, she’s not quite 14).  We’re not allowed to ask how he got them or the cost! It was her first General Admission show. Standing on top of one another, we contemplated going in deeper –  we did try, but failed… not because we couldn’t have, but because it wasn’t worth the price this time. So, we stood strong in our decent spots through Father John Misty’s set and we waited. At one point my daughter looked up at me and asked if I could smell weed. “Weed” she called it.

Finally, Lana opened with “Cola”; tough lyrics to belt while your 13-year old daughter’s standing by your side. My little singer, my talented actress knows all the words to all Lana’s songs – every last raunchy verse! But, I can play both sides… and I do.  I love Lana, too.  She is a strong woman. I love her for her hard work getting her what she wanted. If you study up, you’ll find the road’s been tough for her. Darkness comes across in most of her songs, it’s not all rainbows and butterflies for God’s sake! But, Parenting 101 requires me to garner and share all the solid messages within Lana’s music with my daughter. My favorite is this: “The road is long, we carry on, Try to have fun in the meantime.” Was this concert my right of passage? Perhaps, yes.

029Although this 14-track Lana set wasn’t showy (no pyrotechnics or costume changes), her loungy sound, crude lines and palpable passion were enough to suck everyone in. Performance highlights included “Cola”, “Carmen”, “Gods and Monsters”, “Million Dollar Man”… and we resisted the end as “National Anthem” gave way to the lengthy summertime that lies ahead for this Lana-loving San Diegan, her coming of age daughter and brother.

Boston Calling: Suburb Kids Leave the Suburbs

14/05/28 at 9.48pm   /   by Shae   /   1 Comment

 

Boston Calling Poster In 2004, the Disney Channel movie  “Stuck in the Suburbs” premiered, in which a famous musician comes to a small suburban town and befriends a group of young teens, thus curing their suburban boredom. Ten years later, the audience of that movie is now a group of progressive, millenial, high school and college students seeking a way out of the suburban towns they grew up in. The Boston Calling Music Festival, a two and a half day concert that ranges in performances from the underground Kurt Vile to your childhood-soundtrack Jack Johnson, is helping this group of kids get unstuck from the suburbs.

Taking place in Boston’s concrete jungle, City Hall Plaza, the location brings the festival down anotch from the higher ranks filled by Coachella and Lollapalooza, but this means nothing to the kids living in the Boston area, because most of us have never been to a music festival before. Having spent Saturday of the festival in the midst of the crowd, I spoke to many of my fellow attendees and can easily say that the majority of the audience is made up of teens and twenty-somethings from towns that, at the furthest, are just a few hours outside of Boston.

On the topic of meeting new people, the term ‘concert friends’ comes into play. Every concert/festival brings close proximity and thus, socializing. Boston Calling brings close proximity that is extremely hard to escape, having a tight crowd spanning from the two stages to the concrete buildings in the back. The socializing will happen whether or not it is wanted, but many times it ends well. Those that I met at the festival this weekend were all great people who were there to have a good time and listen to great music. The audience creates a hyped, ready-to-go atmosphere without any negative side-effects like peer pressure or shaming. And some, like my buddy Ryan, end up spending the day with hot twins from Harvard.

Not only is the festival a chance for us to get away from our preppy towns, but it is an opportunity for us to dress as crazily as we please without a school dress code interfering. Outfits tend to resemble those seen on celebrities like Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens/whoever her boyfriend is, and Kendall & Kylie Jenner at similar music festivals. It’s when girls wear crop tops and flower crowns, boys break from the Vineyard Vines conformity, and everyone wears the coolest outfit they own, so everyone is feelin’ fine. No insecurities here.

The price for the three-day festival is reasonable for the reached demographic to pay. $175 for three days general admission and 22 acts is an amazing deal that can be paid with part-time jobs, birthday money, or just given as Christmas gifts.

The weather forecast for Boston Calling Spring 2014 was a gloomy one decorated with scattered rainstorms, clouds, and 50 degree weather. Still, the festival was able to sell out 22,000 tickets each day. Though the weather held up for most of the time, Friday was windy and cold and Saturday night downpoured. Both of these, however, did not thin out the crowd, which exhibits what bored suburban teens will put up with for a good show. Unlike the movie seen when they were kids, young people today are getting themselves unstuck from the suburbs by going to Boston Calling Music Festival.
