With the Coachella line-up out, I’ll probably be posting lots of links to bands I’m looking forward to
or checking out over the next few days. Overall the line-up doesn’t create an immediate “wow” reaction, but
I’ve got to say that I’ve always found its the stuff I didn’t recognize right away that has been best. So I use
the band-list as a shopping list for lots of new music. I’ve scoped out all the bands that have music on
EMusic
and I’ll probably place a couple of Amazon orders too (although mostly I like supporting the artists that are
on
EMusic).

TO start off though here are two bands that aren’t going to Coachella (this year- British Sea Power I discovered
there last year) but I find myself surprised that I didn’t buy
their albums.

Kat and I went to the G. Love show last night. I bought the “Back in the day” and “in the kings court” albums
at the show but wanted to check out a few of the more normal albums. Cool stuff- I noticed all the Amazon listings compared him
to Beck which at first didn’t make sense but the more I think about it its probably right. On the other hand
I’ve never seen Beck in a small club- maybe he would be this cool in a small setting.
