Told to listen to a song..and then....

I was told to check this Band out...The Bird and the Bee


And I dug it.  So I was listening to more songs, and I ran across my favorite Talking Heads song.  The Bird and the Bee re-did it.



So I dug them a little more.  Then I noticed where the video above was from, The North Star Bar in Philadelphia.

I saw Jesse Malin at The North Star bar in Philadelphia about 4 years ago.  So I looked up Jesse Malin.  


The sound sucked on that video, but it was also from the North Star Bar but just last year.  Jesse Malin was a killer live show. That got me thinking to the Ryan Adams concert in Battery Park I went too, where I first heard Jesse Malin, he opened for Ryan Adams.  It was a sick concert at Batter Park on July 4th in NYC.

So I found this video of Ryan Adams singing New York New York....


Ryan Adams is one of the best song writers of my generation I think.  Ryan Adams  in NYC got me thinking about when I saw ZWAN.  Zwan was a band that Billy Corgan (of the Smashing Pumpkins) formed.  I loved this band....they came out with only one or two cd's I think.  I saw them twice, once in Manhattan the other in Philadelphia.





That's all.....you can continue doing what you were doing.
