If you have never had the pleasure of seeing Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds I would highly recommend it. Nick is a tremendously engaging performer and the band are truly talented musicians. This is a terrific opportunity to see a proficient musician truly at the top of his game. I highly recommend your attendance.

Sadly, I don't think I can justify another trip to see a concert, but damn!

A blogger friend of mine, who is a huge Cave fan, was recently in a Grinderman video and was over the moon about it. She said he was absolutely delightful.

I really loved the Grinderman release last year and this year's Bad Seeds record is equally fantastic. I would recommend picking that one up.

Glad to hear you picked up the Colin Meloy. His between song banter caused me to laugh out loud while walking down the street the other night.

I would love to find that Morrissey tribute ep he sold last year. I'll have to keep my eyes open for that one.

I would love to find that Morrissey one as well. I do have one file from it (Every Day is Like Sunday), and it's lovely.
