SPENCER
Spencer (Sunset Rubdown) celebrated his birthday at Bowery Ballroom in NYC on Friday night (May 4, 2007). I unfortunately couldn't be there, but inourhands took some pics including this one of the (vegan?) birthday cupcake...
DAN
Tickets are still on sale for the upcoming Handsome Furs shows in May. More music @ their MySpace. Album out on May 22nd. Dan also had a drum machine stolen which sucks.
DANTE
Billboard is reporting that" Wolf Parade guitarist Dante DeCaro has joined forces with percussionist Lindy Gerrard to form Johnny And The Moon, which will release its self-titled debut on June 12 via micro-indie Kill Devil Hills." CMJ is reporting that the album comes out October 24, 2007. The weird part is that Stereogum says it came out in October 2006 (Canada) and January 2007 (US). The label agrees with the October 2006 date. Pitchfork reviewed it in November 2006. OK.
SPENCER & DAN & & DANTE & EVERYONE
And finally...Wolf Parade is coming out with a new album soon (early 2008?), and touring before that. They're playing Warsaw in Brooklyn on August 19th (2007). A PRESALE starts today. All tour dates below...

the sunset rubdown show was good but not up to par with the last time they played bowery... spencer said he was in a bad mood.. musically it was fine enough but there were definetly some funky vibes coming off the stage

If you are trying to get tickets for WP, I think the "Busy, Busy" screen is a farce.
I had two screens up and got through after being kicked from order screen to sign in screen a few times.
Good luck.

Looks like it's sold out now. What a crock of shit.

Arcade fire said sold out but they weren't. I would keep trying...

When you go back from that stupid waiting area it says:
"Timed Out
We're sorry, you ran out of time to place your order. Please try again later, or feel free to contact us for further help."
ARRRGGGGG

Nice set at Bowery by Sunset Rubdown. Kind of upsetting that Carolline didn't bring more sticks to hit the xylophone, but in general a good show
Posted by Eduardo | May 8, 2007 11:02 PM
you mean camilla right??
there are rumors that sunset rubdown will be back in nyc very soon...
Posted by maria | May 10, 2007 2:21 AM
In my opinion i really think Wolf Parade was the most creative and catchy sound out of Spencer's few bands. Sunset's new album is alright. But i find myself skipping through most of it to find its select few hits. With Wolf Parade i felt as if i could listen to their albums without concern and enjoy it all. So basically come out with your next album conducted with Wolf Parade Spencer, we are all waiting.
