where are the 7"s?

So we pressed 500 7 inch single/eps with The Manhattan Love Suicides. Featuring a new version of "Kick It Back" and 3 others including the song the Ronettes never recorded but should have "You'll Never Get That Guy". It is a fantastic piece of wax. A must to add to your collection. I sent half of the copies to Leeds to The Manhattan Love Suicides 3 weeks ago. They had an upcoming gig with And You Will Know Us By... they were hoping to have the hot new single for sale. It didn't show up in time for the gig. In fact we don't know where they could be. We only pressed 500 and are now down to 250. This could become quite the collectible if not found. I could have written the address wrong but I don't think I did. If that happens they would get sent back and I would not only have to pay to get them back but pay to then send them back to the UK. I mean 7"s are a money losing product anyway but this could be a wash. Well anyway I hope where ever they are they are safe and not broken or underwater. I will keep you updated.

DEAR NORA - Weird Cactus

Why wouldn't Katy tell me she made a video? I am not really sure. Anyway she made this video while on tour with Darren Hanlon who is playing in Portland tonight at the Mississippi Studios. Darren was quick to draw attention to this amazing piece of video made with a $10 budget in Meekathara a remote part of Western Australia.

Bears hit Portland

Last night I was treated to the fantastic sounds of all a things a midwest pop band, Bears. Charlie from the band let me know they were coming to town and I am glad he did. Bears on the recordings are breezy, pleasant pop in an Elliott Smith meets The Lucksmiths but live they were very energetic and upbeat even including a Hall and Oates cover. I know I missed out on seeing Ladybug Transistor across town but I have seen them before and felt rewarded for trying something new. They have a week or so left on their tour so please go see them or buy cd. Here is a song off their self released ep that came out earlier this year.

"All right you're a great zombie" so genius in its simplicity.
