Some Blurbs For April 29, 2010

Sheesh, everything happens at once around here.

We’re adding new shows to our summer tour at a ridiculous pace.  There’s even more on the way. Ever thought about subscribing to the show rss feed?  If your answer was no, think again.

Fathead had a tidy Q and A in today’s Oregonian about his new collection of songs.  He’ll being playing a benefit for MS this Friday night at The Woods on SE Millwuakie in Portland, if you want to check that out.  Zia will be DJing as well.

And a reminder, The Dandys will be performing this next Tuesday at Rock and Rolls Supper Club at The Firehouse in NE Portland.

Uhm. Is that it?

Brent DeBoer: The Farmer

Brent DeBoer has a collection of songs out today on CD called The Farmer.  These are songs Fathead wrote and recorded over the past few years with Brian Coates (you know him).  It’s a CD-Only release on Fathead’s own Headness Records, and part  of the proceeds go to the fight against Multiple Sclerosis. The record can be purchased at CDbaby.com.

Here is a video for You Win directed by Mike Bruce.

Boy’s Life

This book is more or less a page-burner version of Lake Wobegon Days.


I wouldn’t mind if this guy just kept writing and writing on this story.  I most certainly would read and read, as long as the pages kept coming.  It has the languid, lazydays feel of all the greatest “growing up smalltown” novels (ie To Kill A Mockingbird, etc) but with a murder mystery woven in.

This brings up an extremely interesting character in the book who is incidentally a failed writer of just this sort of thing.  I’m not going to say more about it cuz I really hope you all find this book and read it.   With summer right around the corner I feel that this is “just the thing”.
