Song of the Day: Two-fer

11/15/2005  |  4 Comments

Since we missed the post yesterday, you're gettin' not one but two Songs of the Day today. Count 'em. The first is the legendary Foam from Athens, Georgia that the Benevento/Russo Duo and Cactus extended to one of the crazier 51-minute jams I've ever heard. Like many of you, I'm a... more

Server Issues and a Song of the Day

11/11/2005  |  Comments Off

Well, I meant to get a post up earlier about what's going on this weekend in the live music world but I've been researching server issues. I'm having some problems or something. Hopefully, it's not hindering the comment posting so much, but I might have to make a... more

Song of the Day: The Phish from Vermont

11/10/2005  |  18 Comments

You know, ever since we started the Song of the Day on the Live Music Blog, Justin and I have been trying to pick songs and bands that readers might not listen to all that regularly. So the legendary acts like the Dead and Phish are left out of the... more

Song of the Day: Railroad Earth

11/08/2005  |  Comments Off

Tickets for December's Railroad Earth show at the Bowery Ballroom are now on sale...I haven't bought mine yet, but I'll surely be in attendance. I caught these guys at the Jam on the River, and friends of mine have seen them since then at the Vibes and elsewhere, and they... more

Song of the Day

11/07/2005  |  Comments Off

Tea Leaf Red or Trey Leaf Green? I'm not entirely sure which combination moniker I like better. Worlds inevitably collided last week in Madison, as the wandering leader of my all-time favorite band called out the guitarist and bassist of one of my new favorite bands to play on an... more

Song of the Day: Superjam 2003

11/03/2005  |  Comments Off

I just found this show on nugs.net, a real treat considering I had no clue it was online anywhere. What do ya get when you cross legendary gibberish speaker and Blossom theme singer Dr. John on the grand piano and Hammond B3 with Phish bassist Mike Gordon, criminally underrated drummer Stanton... more

Song of the Day: Bruuuuuce

11/02/2005  |  Comments Off

The Year of Our Lord 2005 has been good for my budding relationship with Bruce Hornsby. We talk on the phone, we go for long walks on the beach, I write my posts while he tickles the ivories. Well, not that kind of relationship, I guess, but I haven't gone a... more

Song of the Day

11/01/2005  |  4 Comments

For today's song of the day and for no other reason at all, I love this Talking Heads song. I think it's something to marvel at. I recently purchased their re-release of their live album, The Name of This Band is Talking Heads and there's a killer version... more

Song of the Day: Halloween Style

10/31/2005  |  Comments Off

There's only one possible song we could post up here on this unofficial holiday. So everybody break out your zombie clothes and get ready to do that dance where you swing your arms from side to side. 'Cause this is Thriller, thriller night. From the LMB to you, Happy Halloween, everybody. As... more

Song of the Day

10/30/2005  |  Comments Off

If you are not currently subscribed to the Umphrey's McGee bi-weekly podcast, you are missing out on some seriously good, FREE music. I have all #12 Podcasts before this week's release, and so far, Podcast #13 is unbelievable. To celebrate a (semi?) official release exclusively through DiscLogic entitled... more

Song of the Day: K-Dub Again

10/29/2005  |  Comments Off

For today's Song of the Day, I dug into some great Keller Williams archives on the Archive and found this show with this hilarious techno loop. I mean, classic Keller. You can listen to that, stream the whole show, or listen to one of my favorites... Keller Williams -... more

Song of the Day: Secret’s Out

10/28/2005  |  Comments Off

For those lucky souls that saw The Secret Machines' late night set at Bonnaroo 2005, you know how amazing this show sounds. Since I downloaded that set and since I got Now Here is Nowhere, I've been one happy Secret Machines fan. I can't wait to catch their... more

Song of the Day: GSW

10/27/2005  |  6 Comments

A decade ago I couldn't get enough of these guys. Just behind the Grateful Dead and the popular rock band Phish, I listened to God Street Wine more than any other band in the world. As a buddy and I discussed in between bands at the Jam on the River,... more

Song of the Day: Obligatory ‘Tap’ Reference

10/26/2005  |  Comments Off

Because I've listened to this three-song opener from Umphrey's McGee for about the tenth time already (and that's browsing EVERYTHING on the Internet Archive when searching for some stuff to listen to at work), I figured it was finally appropriate that I make the formal song of the day as... more

Song of the Day: Get On Top

10/25/2005  |  Comments Off

For the second day in a row, let's make today's songs based on last night's show -- so here's my absolute favorite Clapton tune, Badge. That was followed last night by Politician, a great one-two punch. And because they played Tales of Brave Ulysses for the first time ever last... more

Song of the Day: Cream

10/24/2005  |  Comments Off

Thirty-seven years ago next month, Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce ended their short-lived exploratory partnership and called it quits at the height of their fame and creativity. And tonight, the original power trio will reunite to play on American soil for only the second show since the... more

Sunday Morning Streams

10/23/2005  |  4 Comments

Most often because I'm half-lazy or I don't try and search out new music, I've been relying heavily on streaming radio lately. My iPod has actually been acting funny, too. I wonder if it's on its last legs. Whether you call it today's Song of the Day or my... more

Tonight, one very great friend of mine is coming home. He's from Chicago but he's been living the past ten years or so in Juneau, AK. His first show back in Chicago in quite a long time will be Lotus, and man it is going to be hot.... more

Song of the Day

10/20/2005  |  Comments Off

I've listened to the studio version of Sunny's Song from The Duo's Best Reason to Buy the Sun so many times that my iPod is getting angry with me. It fits my mood when walking my half-mile every morning to the train. So, here's a great version from... more

LMB Song of the Day: The Stones

10/19/2005  |  4 Comments

Let's kick it classic-style today, swing the hips and shake the head to Mick and Keith and company, the Rolling Bears (bonus point if you know what the "Rolling Bears" is from). Here are a couple of my favorites -- Shattered, Monkey Man, Loving Cup and Miss You. And as an added... more

LMB Song of the Day

10/18/2005  |  2 Comments

I've been listening to My Morning Jacket quite a bit since I got a copy of Z, so I'm offerring up a good link to their recent NPR webcast show. The sound quality is pretty good and this first sequence of songs is just fantastic. My Morning Jacket - Gideon Enjoy,... more

Justin’s Song of the Day: Death Cab anyone?

10/17/2005  |  4 Comments

Well, I know I'm way behind in the Death Cab for Cutie department but I'm catching up slowly. I just noticed that they allow taping of their shows (which is fantastic), and they played a gem of a set at the 5000 degree Lollapalooza festival this year. Here it is,... more

Ace’s Song of the Day: K-Dub Style

My buddy Lukas and I danced on over to the new Nokia Theatre in Times Square on Friday for an evening with the One Man Gang, Keller Williams. We'll have a full review some time either later this afternoon or tomorrow (hey, it takes me a little while to get... more

LMB Song of the Day: Traffic-Style

10/14/2005  |  Comments Off

I found this on PT (via JamBase) last night, a pretty cool video of Traffic and Jerry Garcia playing Dear Mr. Fantasy from Soldier Field in July of 1994. It's funny, Jerry looks like he's about 72 and Winwood about 40, though the nine-fingered legend is really only six years... more

LMB Song of the Day: Stomping Grounds

10/13/2005  |  Comments Off

Yesterday we kicked off a new tradition here on the Live Music Blog. In addition to Justin's amazing Jamcasts, I'll be posting a Song of the Day every morning or afternoon. Just a little something to get you through the work or school day... I've posted this one on my own... more

LMB Song of the Day…It Begins

10/12/2005  |  Comments Off

Some time about six months ago I started attaching a "Song of the Day" to my first post each morning over on my personal site, Slack LaLane. I just did it at first to jump start my own day, listening to and picking different songs in different genres, mixing live stuff... more

Play Pnuma

10/10/2005  |  Comments Off

Something new to listen to... Pnuma, 8.26.05, Camp Bisco I just listened to the whole set and I was impressed. I'd like to see a bit more differentiation between them and some of the current electronica-flavored jambands, but hey, they're new. Roundup: Pnuma - New Groove of the Month (9/05) - Jambands.com Pnuma -... more

Listening to…

09/27/2005  |  Comments Off

...The White Stripes live on NPR's webcast. This is cool. You should listen to it. Now. Oh, and by the way, why didn't anyone of you tell me that NPR.org is kicking some serious ass with their ongoing live concert series? The Secret Machines? Sigur Ros? This... more

New Friendly Podcast

Our good friend Hans over at Here comes the flood has begun podcasting. Hell, Widespread Panic just began their podcast, so I think Hans joined the ranks during a good time. The first podcast sounds good so far; I'm halfway through the crowd singalong on Gov't Mule doing... more
