Bedroom Walls 11/06/06 - Spaceland, Los Angeles, CA. (Part Two)

(Part Two in a series of three)

Continuing on, this Bedroom Walls show was an opener for the first show of Let's Go Sailing's November 2006 Monday residency. As anyone who's been to Spaceland's free show nights can attest, they usually draw a big crowd, and people tend to chatter/drink more. Well, I suppose it's fair to say they do during shows with a cover charge as well, but I've seen through my own unscientific research that people tend to shut up and pay more attention to the music when they've actually had to spend money on it. But that's just me.

So, this show had some more background chatter than I would have liked, but after listening to it recently, I don't think it's that bad. One can argue that it adds to the atmosphere of the recording, really showing the perspective of the audience of the show. Still, pretty good set.

(again, if anyone can identify tracks 4 and 8, drop me a line. thanks.)

Let's Go Sailing 3/02/08 - The Hotel Cafe, Hollywood, CA.

Let's Go Sailing is the indie-pop brainchild of Shana Levy, with an assorted cast of rotating band members (well, as far as I know) I first heard of them in conjunction with Bedroom Walls (now Fol Chen) a few years ago. I picked up the "Icicles" EP (which contain 3 demos that also ended up on their full-length "The Chaos Of Order," which was released in 2006 ) I eventually first saw them at a couple of their Spaceland residency (and LP release) shows in November 2006, and a few times thereafter.

This particular show was acoustic, and part of a line-up for "Rock and Run for Charity - A Benefit for People Assisting The Homeless." I have a few other Let's Go Sailing recordings, but this is definitely the one that sounds the best. Though, if their is a demand, I suppose I may put them up, we'll see.

1.) This Rope Is Long MP3
2.) Devil With The Devil MP3
3.) Icicles MP3
4.) It's As Clear MP3
5.) Better Off MP3
6.) Easy For You MP3
7.) Sideways MP3
