If I can gloat a bit more...

A great show by Fountains of Wayne last night. They're an amazingly tight live band and the Bowery is probably my favorite venue in the city. Long-time readers may recall me babbling about the sound there on many an occasion. The only complaint was it was too short. Thy probably played less than an hour and a half. But, when you only have two albums out (and one in the works) and most of your songs clock in at around three minutes I guess that's to be expected.

I also got to briefly meet blog pal and fellow NYC music gadabout Jesse! By that time, however, I had way too much vodka on an empty stomach and was obsessed with getting the 12:17 train out of GCT. Sorry 'bout that, Jesse.

FoW also have a new album coming out "in a couple of months" and played a lot of stuff from it. Seems like it's more of their usual great stuff. Keep your eye out!

Line of the night from Chris - "A couple more sissy rock songs and then we're gonna go all Nickelback on yer ass!"
