Final Ms. Led show 1/23. Nnnnooooooo!!!

Previously I've regretted breaking news here that I get via my Facebook friends' status updates but this was confirmed by the High Dive's website: Ms. Led, the first band I ever wrote about (back when I was a writer at ROCKRGRL magazine) and have been friendly with ever since, is playing their final show in January. January 23rd at the High Dive, to be exact.

I'm very saddened by this because Ms. Led was one of the very first bands to be nice to me when I started going to shows 6 years ago. They also kick ass. Unfortunately, my birthday is also that night, so I don't think I'll be able to make this show - which makes it suck times ten now.

I was also sick when The Young Sportsmen played their final show a few weeks ago and I loathe not being able to properly say goodbye to my favorite Northwest.

I'll post more details when I know them. In the meantime, here's the awesome video to the song "New Agenda".

Latest comment by: heather b: "Ok, I'm not one to gloat but I called it: "When I say highly marketable, I mean it occurred to me that very soon I expect to hear Sea Wolf used in a car commercial or to sell jeans or whatever. And I don't mean that the music lacks integrity, far from it; it's ...

Ear Candy's pre-Sasquatch party (that actually has little to do with Sasquatch {but has everything to do with good local music})

The night includes sets from many TIG faves as well as some new bands with very intriguing names who we're eager to learn more about.

Elf Power's solid set was no surprise to me since I've been a fan since the mid 90's when I made countless trips between Atlanta and Athens photographing bands and avoiding college.
