First, this: Union Chapel, London UK, August 18 2010

Jealous.

…

Sorry for the sudden drop off in posting. I’m gong to try to schedule a little bit of time in my days for updating the blog. I’m still in love Mr Lanegan, but I have more other things (good things for the most part) on my plate right now than I did when I first started the blog.

I purchased both Rhys Cooper Lanegan posters and they are just spectacular. You really need to see them in person to appreciate them. He makes use of matte and gloss varnish to create ‘hidden’ images. The original one has just recently been reprinted, screen print, finally. It has a new gloss hidden background. The editions are limited to 300, and I got #38 on both, but they’re not going to be around forever.

They’re available in the US here: Poster Caberet. You can also buy them directly from Mr Cooper, but shipping from Australia is rather pricey.

This happened. And a bunch of other songs. Surprise encore appearance. Due to my now following QOTSA and the vaugness of their fan forum, I don’t know where this show was. I’m not sure if this is one off or if he’s officially back.

But on to the goods:

Finally, they posted on Youtube Lately, a new song from Hawk.

…And Dave Rosser said in his myspace page that:

“A bit later this year there may be some more interesting tour action, stay tuned”.

Scott Ford just remembered on his facebook page that here you can listen to the audio tracks of the Gutter Twins live at the Academy 2 in Liverpool.
