READER REVIEWS:
3.5.2011 TAB @ The Fox, Oakland, CA: Butter
…The night seemed to begin at “Heavy Things”; as simultaneously – the rest of TAB took the stage – and people began to care about what was going on, onstage. Liquid Time is a showcase tune in this setting and the horns help color the musical pallete. Trey currently has the young Natalie “Chainsaw” Cressman on trombone, TAB staple; Jennifer Hartswick on trumpet, and Russell Remmington on saxophone and flute. While this is not “The Tower of Power” horns section, they help develop the sound of this band, playing mostly charted out lines…Read On Here!

3.1.2011 TAB @ The Ogden, Denver, CO: Mike San Clements
…Trey came out around 8:30, did his classic nod and wave, picked up his guitar and quickly launched into Farmhouse. I’d read a lot of complaints about people being loud during the acoustic sets, but the crowd at the Ogden hushed immediately and stayed quiet and sang through all the right parts. It was actually quite impressive, particularly during Theme and Backwards Down the Number Line where they instinctively filled in for the missing band members. Trey enjoyed it too, and it felt like a true collaboration between performer and audience…Read On Here!

^cats are live now
Go Rutgers!
i’ll be rooting for my Friars to play spoiler against Marquette tonight….although that could prevent the Big East getting, what, 11 teams into the big dance? tough call.
my favorite 80’s song is David Bowie
“What is the lot, or lack there of, at Blossom like?”
best lot i’ve ever been to. it’s a utopia.
seriously, it’s beautiful
DF, have you checked out Tame Impala at all? I am pimping this band big time, great stuff. Worth a check out.
Ok. one more try. Any interest in doing the march madness pool with donation to mr. miner as the entry fee again?
i’m in joe
I forget who put it together last time…all I remember is coming in middle of the pack as I always do.
Good to hear dancingfool, what about the law? pretty hands off?
@AJ, yeah i listened to it when it first came out, liked it a lot, need to give it another spin
ander’s reppin a waterwheel hoodie
kick down before you rock out…
@littering, i don’t remember even seeing any law. blossom is basically in the middle of nowhere
“not a fan of the echo’y snare hit? Reggae must be unlistenable for you!”
As long as it’s a real snare, let that sucker echo all day…
synth drums are the worst. Takes a lot to overcome that kind of blemish.
Wow, what a finish!!! Or not overtime.
synth drums are the worst. Takes a lot to overcome that kind of blemish.
Makes mental note to not send Sel J new tracks, ha
why didn’t RU foul there? that was dumb.
I am in for the BB Bracket fundraiser pool as well.
I agree Mr. P
haha Just overdub some real snare and we’re good @aj.
All I’m saying is that they make a lot of reggae suck. Dancehall can make it work but reggae not so much. I think the same goes for rock music vs electronic music. Synth drums don’t belong in a band.
Dissing echo laden snare hits. That’s just wrong
Beware of blossom locals
check out 9/18/00 Blossom, sans locals
I am in for the BB Bracket fundraiser pool as well.
^Defending champ is in for the pool as well.
Blossom…must have cup for beers…like Jones Beach….my favs are SPAC & Darien lots, but I haven’t been too many places either
