UPDATED: Albrecht benefit video on the way...
Bend Studio CDs have always been $20. Even if you get them the day of the show.

Lets Play 'Name That Local Artist'
I can't name that many of the artists, but I'm guessing the photographer is Lupe Hernandez!

ClearChannel emails weren't working, either. Anyone else have that issue?

Breaking News - Frequency Down CANCELLED?
Odd that the hammer coming down on Frank coincided with the end of the acedemic year. Coincidence? You be the judge.

TexasGigs Kicks Everyone's Ass Back To China
I'm in Mexico; stupid "vacations"... missing this was the low-light of my year. I mean, Sam, in fishnets? My life is not complete.

Clever campaigners
Thanks for keeping this alive. Allison V Smith (www.allisonvsmith.com, if you have flash installed, a beautiful website) is inspiring, and I hated that these were already down. In fact, I was gonna post some Wall of Sound photos, then didn't because Sam's eyes were just so lovely in her photo. Don't you agree?

A Vote for Fishboy is a Vote for America
Oh, this is brilliant! I know who I'm voting for! Sorry, it's not Fishboy, but had I seen this before I voted... well, then, it would have definitely altered my vote. Maybe.

Let's Spune, Shall We?
Ryan Smith- oh yay! What a brilliant voice she has! She happens to be the sister of a certain Mr. Smith who is the drummer in a certain Denton band we all are drooly over. cough Midlake cough
I've also heard delicous things about the new Fishing for Comets album in the works. I hope Ms. Cortinas will treat us to a few new songs from it.
I missed Smile Smile at Wall of Sound and am looking forward to catching them here.

My fav (i.e. closest to my morning traffic pattern) and the best (as in really, really tasty coffee) caffeine-pushers anywhere in Dallas! Welcome Bob & Nancy ... your shop hosted the beginnings of TexasGigs/Pegasus News. So glad you are a part of it now, too. Welcome.

Midlake newness
Hey! I LOVE "Roscoe!" From the two songs I've already heard, this new album is gonna be spectacular, but I'll hold on to my honest opinion until I actually hear it. I know McK and Eric wouldn't expect anything less, right guys?

Wall of WTF?
Couple of hundred photos? I wish. Try 1000+, and a non-cooperative, 5-year-old computer. Soon, I promise.
If anyone is keeping up on other blogs, I bet you can find my take on the staff at the Ridgelea. At Athlete/Switchfoot, I was asked to surrender my camera, and I chalked that up to a paranoid band manager, but now I think I know better. Needless to say, I didn't give my equipment up. These two bad experiences in a row will keep me in Dallas for a while.
Nice job phlezk, btw! Great shots.

Stream-of-Consciousness Review:
DEAF and Robbie FulksI'd like to point out that I wasn't at DEAF, I was at Wall of Sound. And had I not been at WOS, I still probably wouldn't have been at Deep Ellum Arts (for very long). BUT, Sam's slam was too heavy handed. I mean, 88 bands were booked at the Ridgelea this weekend. Pickins for DEAF were a might slim, though quite a few really good DFW/Denton bands weren't at either. DEAF isn't a bad festival in the way that the Dallas Music Festival is; it's just not a very good one. Please keep that in mind as you are casually walking through it.

D.O Dish
... Handstamps: If you're at this weekend's Deep Ellum Arts Festival, keep a pair of earplugs handy, because the bands are gnarly enough to ruin a perfectly good art-hunting weekend. Seems like most of the bands weren't good enough to land spots on the Wall of Sound Festival schedule ...
Oh my freakin' ... words do not express my disgust ... I had hope for Sam as an editor. I did. What was the point of this? Why? Salt in the wounds? Apparently an opportunity to slam just can't be missed.
