Ok, so this is WAAAAYYY too early to be as excited as I am, but the Shins AND Beachwood Sparks are playing a show TOGETHER at the Slow Bar on July 15. Hope you all can make it, even if it takes a fake ID.

WHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know nothing of the Shins, but Beachwood Sparks has been one of my favorites of the past few years.  That reminds me, they have a new ep out. I'd buy it, but no one carries any good music in far East Tennessee.

ps Roadie could easily pass as a member of Beachwood Spars.

You know you have problems, with both money and alcohol, when you find yourself shoving beers down your pants outside a Features show.

Check out http://www.artisdead.net/theshins/mp3.html for some Shins tunes.  Definitely listen to the first one, Caring is Creepy.

Well those turned out to be live tracks and not of the complete band... but they're still kind of cool. I would search for them on CDNOW to hear some clips from the CD.
