The Long Winters

I have two shows from Indi and one from Mercury Lounge that I recorded on mini discs then transfered to one Laserdisc if you want 'em.

I know I'm a little late to chime in on this one, but for what it's worth, it sounded great in the back row next to the mixer. Great crowd, the no dancing thing was a bit weird though. And I had a moment of panic when the amp thing started happening at the beginning of the show, but all in all, fant...

I can definitely get it in an mp3 to you. It would be my pleasure

Yes. Gibson Guitars are some of the best out there. I was lucky enough to take a tour of the Nashville plant (not open for public tours), and it was incredible how the staff paid such ridiculous attention to detail. They're making the stuff now as good as they did when Orville ran the company. Mind ...

Seriously, thanks everyone. I can't thank you enough. I'm sure TLW means as much to me as it does to you. My covering this song (as well as others when I play live) is just a tribute to a band that has brought me so much. I'm really glad it's gotten a positive response. My biggest fear was that ever...

that's actually not a bad idea for GB users. Ala Postal Service. Let's get this ball rolling!

yes. Is this still happening? Is there a master list of what everyone is doing. I just put a video of me on YouTube doing "Carparts". I see that's already claimed, but I would love to take a stab at another tune.

BTW. The take on Fire Island is awesome.

Hi, I'm not new here. I just haven't been around for a while. I didn't see anywhere that doing this was frowned upon, so if it is, I apologize in advance. I added a video to YouTube of me covering "Carparts". I love The Long Winters. A lot. I hope you enjoy my pseudo-rendition of it. Thanks. -Matthe...

Burdens of being upright was a masterpiece.

Down here was a huge let down.

I heard the single from the new one. Sounded pretty poppy, but worth checking out.

Wizard - Guide to the comics Cargo - men's buyers guide Paste - Keen music magazine, w/ a compilation cd in each issue and while I've never bought an issue, I often times find myself flipping through a very torn and tattered issue of Star Wars Insider whenever I make my rounds through the local book...

I saw it and thought it was great. Like several of you, my friends and I were the only ones laughing in the theater. I think the other people in the theater were hoping for this to be their own personal "Men In Black 3".

Hey, I've got some stuff on myspace. I'd like to know what some of you think. I wrote one of the songs (So Tired) after seeing The Long Winters open for Death Cab for Cutie in Indianapolis. That was my first experience hearing them, and I was so motivated after that show...anyway, I'd like to know w...

Which Ben Folds to start with?

wowza!

They have a music section thats really quite cool. Just click on the "music" link on the navigation bar, and you've got hundreds of thousands of bands to listen to, network with, and so-on and so-on.


shazam!

I think Myspace is a fantastic promotional tool and The Long Winters should set up a page there...if they haven't allready. There you go.
I hope I posted this in the right section.

cheers

What do you think of Ben Folds latest effort? I for one think it's pretty dern good. Perhaps his best so far (at least his best solo album so far). But that's just what I think. What do you think?

No, no, no, no people! This is EXACTLY why this is the year of soup! A year for discovering new soup, making your own soup, hot soup, cold soup, room-temperture soup! The fun doesn't end when you're havin' soup! Why, here's what Frank Nichols of Wheeling, West Virginia had to say about soup: "I thin...

I hearby dub thee, 2005 a.d., year of the soup. That being said, what's your favorite kind? I really like Campbell Select Chicken Tortilla Soup. It makes my mouth smile and my stomach stop complaining.

Hey, it's got Martin Freeman from "The Office" and Sam Rockwell. I'll be there. Not to mention the rest of the cast is pretty top notch as well.

Anyone love the Aqua Teens as much as me? I think they are pretty keen. If I were able I'd sing a Brak-like song about how much I love the aqua teens. Should you feel the same way, you should say "hey"!
