Lady Southpaw

So I posted on Hey Lady's performance at Southpaw a while back on Hipster Resistance and seems like I was getting traffic for people looking for this Brooklyn based singer songwriter "Lady Southpaw". She makes really interesting, eclectic music, with high BPM for runners, its catchy and kind of kitchy and definitely unique. A very talented women. As a musician you have to admire a female who really enjoys making music and who can get creative with beat creation software! She also happens to be a former employee of my current company Thomasnet.com.

This is my favorite song of hers, it is philosophical and damn catchy.

Hope the summer finds you all doing great! We are recovering from a very hot but very successful Bonnaroo and gearing up for the rest of the season.

I wanted to let everyone know that we are still looking for lots of volunteers for this year's High Sierra Music Festival. High Sierra takes place July 2nd - 5th in Quincy, CA. This will be Clean Vibes' ninth year working at High Sierra, and as many of the veteran crew and volunteers will tell you - it is a special place that truly captures the spirit and magic of all that a festival is supposed to be. For more info on the festival, please check out: http://highsierramusic.com/

We still have spots for both during show and post show volunteers. During show volunteers will work 4 four hour shifts - one shift for each day of the 4 day festival. Volunteers will be helping to service stations and sort recycling. Post show volunteers will work 2 eight hour shifts on the Monday and Tuesday after the festival - helping to clean up all trash and recycling in an effort to leave the site cleaner than we found it.

If you are interested in volunteering, just log in at:
http://hq.cleanvibes.com/basecamp/login
and sign up for High Sierra.

Details on paying your deposit and other info will be sent to you shortly after signing up.

Also, help us spread the word to all of your friends about volunteering - folks who are not already in the volunteer database can fill out a volunteer application from www.cleanvibes.com so they can get added to database.

If you have any questions, please email info@cleanvibes.com.

Thanks and hope to see lots of you in the Sierras!

Underground Brooklyn Warehouse/Loft Party with U-Melt

Meanwhile this weekend while Reuban was on tour with phish....

U-Melt is a band that has a lot of potential, (I outline this in detail on the mighty Jambase) They are one of the few great bands of the new generation carrying the torch for the "jamband" genre; A word people in the music business shy away from now as it is synominous with anti-corporate anti-greed and anti-radio play. so basically it doesn't sell tons or albums. The whole concept of jambands is great though, going on tour, and will always be loved. Traveling the land of the brave and free and playing great improvisational music. My friend and partner in gonzo journalism Rob lives in this old art gallery with a really cool layout, a stage, sound booth and a bar. These guys live there and the place borders on residential/commercial. it has an elevator in the building so bands can transport their gear and all this really cool art laying around the owner of the apartment has kept there. Everywhere you look there is something mind expanding and best of all there are no hipsters! Even if there were, the vibe about the place has one just want to check their ego at the door and get funky, did I mention you can chill on the roof? Because this is not a proper "certified" venue it is totally illegal! which makes it a lot more fun, this is why the show could not be publicized and sadly very few U-Melt fans knew about it. Of course this made it extra special too. There will be some more unannounced shows coming up, and I'll drop a word on here or my facebook about them. Some other bands who have played there so far include The Brew and The Macpodz.

You Say Goodbye I Say Hello?

So I've pretty much abandoned the blog. A couple of factors led to this, and in no particular order: time-consuming nature of law school/being lucky enough to have a job; decreased interest in (and available funds for) any music that's not Phish; and, honestly, the extremely narrow subject matter of the blog.

That being said, I always enjoyed writing this blog because it allowed me to write about something non-academic. Eventually, though, I just kind of got to the point where writing about the same few bands got old and I found myself wanting to write about other shit. That, and, let's be honest, there isn't very much excitement when the highlight of your (blogging) day is linking the new Tea Leaf Green tour dates an entire hour before they're posted on Hidden Track.

So, I'm starting a new blog: 10,000 talkers (whose tongues were all broken). Get the Bob Dylan reference? Kind of obscure, but then again, not as obscure as Partyin' Peeps!

To the folks at Hidden Track, Coventry, and The Weight: thanks for your support and let's get back in touch in the blogosphere soon.

There Is A God

Partyin' Peepette won 2 tickets x all three nights in the lottery.
