Michigander Blues

So, I'm now living in Michigan...Lansing area to be precise. That's more or less the point of this update. Regarding releases, "Imaginary Scores" will be out in mid/late September. No word yet on the Crow Feathers / Ville Moskiitto split C-24 on Sound Holes. That's right.

I think I'm checking out a show somewhere on Michigan Ave. tomorrow afternoon and meeting representatives from the local crew. Should be interesting.

No musical ravings right now.

Tony Wilson, You Shall Be Missed

Factory Records / Hacienda head-honco, Tony Wilson passed away at the age of 57 this evening after a prolonged battle with cancer. Beyond influential, his work at Factory laid the foundation of the very scene and sound that so many today still shamelessly crib from for their indie hits.

Pull out a Joy Division, Durutti Column, New Order, Happy Mondays, or some other FACT catalog title and pay a little respect.

Here's the BBC story.
