"I'm Afraid to Forget You, I Am Remembering You"

I went to another 2 shows this weekend that I'll be having to atlk about at some point soon... how soon depends on how much time I've got in the next few days...

I came across this band by the name of the Hospital Bombers, and instantly knew that they too were fellow Mountain Goats lovers (because the name of their band comes from a Mountain Goats song). While the music isn't very Mountain Goats-y, it's still pretty fun. Give it a shot:

Hospital Bombers - The Devil's Music

Another little band that crossed my path that I enjoyed quite a bit is a band by the name of mr. Gnome. Spirited and haunting and fun and cute, the people of mr. Gnome knows what they're doing. Can't wait to see them here in a few weeks.

mr. Gnome - Pirates

oh yeah, and this too: I always like to fill requests, especially when it's as easy as re-uping an old set. Here ya go:
