9/22 Fill-In Show
What? Another show today? Indeed. The venerable King of Soul himself (aka Arvin) had a concert to attend in Denver, so I filled in for him tonight from 8:30-10:30. Having already played my weekly load of new music and whatnot a mere 4 hours prior, I went with an old standard: the A-Z show.
No links, 'cause its all old (or I've linked to it many times prior).

Monolith Preview
From 9/8 Show
With Colorado's best music festival looming on my weekend calendar, I did my best to get listeners just as excited about the Monolith Festival. My summer thus far has been relatively void of good concerts, so I figure a weekend of about 60 bands ought to make up for it all. I'll see what I can do about posting some post-Monolith thoughts (hopefully more detailed than last year's reports: Day One, Day Two). Anyhow, all of the bands below are playing at the Monolith Festival (although a couple are only appearing at special VIP events).
Mp3 links are up and awesome.
Artist / Song
CSS / Patins
Pomegranates / Whom/Who
Hearts of Palm / No Water
Vampire Weekend / A-Punk
Blitzen Trapper / Not Your Lover

The Whigs / Right Hand on my Heart
Avett Brothers / Paranoia in Bb Major
Holy F*ck / Lovely Allen
TV on the Radio / Staring at the Sun
Akron/Family / Ed is a Portal
DeVotchKa / Transliterator
The Muslims / On My Time
Cameron McGill / Not on my Side
KaiserCartel / Oh No
Rock Plaza Central / My Children, Be Joyful
Grampall Jookabox / Take Me from Diamondhead
The Dutchess & the Duke / Back to Me
White Denim / Shake Shake Shake

Labor Day
From 9/1 Show
As you may notice, many of the songs below have a "labor" theme (or at least song title) in honor of today's holiday. You may also notice a completely unrelated stretch of "on fire" songs. iTunes is really great for these things. (I think a long weekend of working has taken its toll on my writing ability).
Mp3s links are up. Check out the new track from Of Montreal's forthcoming release Skeletal Lamping.
Artist / Song
Devo / Working in a Coal Mine
Maureen Tucker / Work
Ezra Furman & the Harpoons / I Wanna be Ignored
Port O'Brien / Close the Lid
The Clash / Working and Waiting
Working for a Nuclear Free City / Asleep at the Wheel
Wolf Parade / This Heart's on Fire
Bruce Springsteen / I'm on Fire
Spiritualized / Soul on Fire
Kings of Leon / Sex on Fire
Talking Heads / Love -> Building on Fire
Oh No! Oh My! / Go to Work
Zookeeper / Rosemarie, etc.
Ra Ra Riot / Ghost Under Rocks
The Walkmen / In the New Year
Ezra Furman & the Harpoons / We Should Fight
Prince / Let's Work
Of Montreal / Nonpareil of Favor
Fandeath / Veronica's Veil
Esau Mwamwaya, Santogold, MIA, etc / Get it Up
