Argue’s set has a nice dedication to my late friend Laurie Frink. 10 Years gone yet not forgotten. As for Walter's posthumous release I can't share your enthusiasm. Perhaps a simple matter of missing the man but it is decidedly.... flat. Not quite sure of the proper word(s). The disc generated no excitement. Happy, happy sir.
Great start to my day--will have to give a bunch of these a try today! Ha Ha Tonka played an unplugged set at Hickman High School, where I used to teach, and were great. I had something to do with it, but I can't remember what (maybe a phone call)--a long time ago, when they were starting. They were the first in a long line: Drive By Truckers, Hold Steady, Bobby Rush, Baby Gramps, Exene, Dead Moon/Pierced Arrows, Robert Belfour, Cary Hudson (of Blue Mountain), The F-Bombs. We had a great run from the mid-Oughts to the early teens! Happy New Year, thanks for the tips, and here's to meeting one day!
Admittedly, I went to a parochial school, but I can't imagine a group calling themselves the F-Bombs being allowed into my high school. Nice collection of performers, though.
The F-Bombs actually played in my classroom after school, with 35-40 students jammed in! They were a Missouri punk band from Fayette, if memory serves. Nobody cared but US.
