Vinz calls for another refreshing coldie. Francois Laigre shot the photo.
In no particular order :
Neil Young @ le Zenith, Paris. He’s still got it, still knows how to do it, and more hits than a WBC heavyweight championship finals.
Mötörhead. same place… same comment.
The Spoils : Not so long ago, I still couldn’t see why somebody had invented the violin. these guys made me change my mind. try their new album on Beast records. Speaking of which…
Beast records. : Record label of the year. Based in Brittany, France. France is not the best place for great music it seems, but Seb (label owner) knows where to find great bands…
Binic Folk & blues festival : not too bluesy, not too folky either, it rocked! We played there with Megan Bawden, had a great time with her fellow Aussies Texas Tea, Monty Sparrow, Julien Poulson, Pete Ross, Memphis one man band Shake it like a Caveman, Rennes-based Orville Brody… among others. Thanks a million to Seb and Alexandra.
Gloria : the New Christs album and tour. Fantastic shows, great album – if you only bought one in 2009, I hope you picked that one.
Recording with Dimi Dero Inc and the Holy Curse, with Rob Younger behind the desk. The most intense and enjoyable recording experience I’ve had ever ( but then I’m no session musician… ha!)
Neil Young You’re My Hero : Freshest music clip I’ve seen in ages. Simple, catchy, funny… Great. Starring Megan Bawden, Cathy AND Cormac Green.
Memories Remain – Penny Ikinger : Song of the year, single of the year. And I’m not saying that just because I played a tiny part in the adventure. honestly!
The Holy Curse singer Eric telling me he’s been invited to sing a bunch of songs @ the Blind Pig for the Ann Arbor festival, by and with Deniz Tek, Scott Morgan and Dennis Thompson. Enjoy, motherfucker!!! (dont read : “jealousy, jealousy, jealousy” here… really.)
Ashley Thomson finally recording “I Only Buy My Heroin From Her”. It’s gonna be in my 2010 top for sure – if I get invited to post one in 2010, after such a lousy and spinal tap-esque 2009 top ten, that is!
That’s it folks! Google/youtubesearch all those names when necessary, they deserve it, much much more than what I’ll ever be able to write on them. Cheers!
Vinz
