Phish

Let the rumors begin. Phish has to practice before the shows in Hampton. Will they play at The Bowery, New York, NY 2008-12-31? A major Phish freak apparently has some inside info through the band's archivist Kevin Shapiro:

Mike's band + Trey's band.
Invite only.

You heard it hear first.

This would mean that Patti Smith won't be playing there on NYE, breaking a long standing tradition.

MP3: Phish - La Grange (23 East Cabaret, Ardmore, PA 1990-02-10)
MP3: Phish - Ghost (Lucerna Theatre, Prague, Czech Republic 1998-07-06)
MP3: Phish - Frankenstein (Zeleste, Barcelona, Spain 1998-07-08)

System and Station

System and Station, an indie progressive rock band from Portland, Oregon, have been knocking on the door marked "world wide fame" for ten years now. Main songwriter RFK Heise is the resident genius of the band. His lyricism is dark and peppered with sci-fi elements, an open invitation to endless discussions about what his songs are about.

Their fourth full-length album A Nation of Actors will gain them wider recognition among the geeks, music nerds and other assorted "in-the-know" dudes. Their music with jangling guitars and Teutonic bass and drums is just a bit too much for the general public who will choose to ignore them some more.

System and Station is released on Latest Flame Records.

  1. The Magnetic North
  2. Sell Out
  3. A Light To Lead You Home
