be in a Jemina Pearl video, see her live (2009 tour dates)

Jemina Pearl @ the Williamsburg Waterfront (more by Bao Nguyen)

"introducing my band! maxwell peebles on rhythm guitar, ben pearson on bass, erik ratensperger on drums, and john eatherly on lead guitar. what a good looking group of guys! i can't wait to start traveling in a smelly van with them.

we had a another great practice last night after a full of day of recording. we are getting ready for our two shows next week, and we are all very excited! also some more shows got added to our tour in october, so see if we're coming to your city on the myspace page.

finished up the b sides yesterday. we had ben and max come play on one song. it was the first time we actually had a live band recording. usually it's just john and i doing everything, and really it's mostly john. anyway, we might play one of the covers on monday if we can get it together." [Jemina Pearl on August 15th]

honestly, what the fuck is this? BYOP was not great and this is even less-so. These kids should probably stay in school. And for the record, not that cute.

She was cute for a hot minute. Didn't she bang the dude from the arctic monkeys?

Does anyone know how much they're paying people to be in the video? I've the day off tomorrow and could use the extra cash.

My guess would be nothing.

erik ratensperger... drummer from seminal emo-violence band jeromes dream (and the virgins, ugh)

She sucks.

Good to see there get the band back together, working on those songs, and hitting the road for some crazy adventures.

Who is this? And why should I care?
Dont we need people to help out old people, or do something productive rather than make average music.

If I was in this band I'd be like "Can we actually play something that sounds good?"

Posted by Anonymous | August 25, 2009 9:49 AM

and then she would be like "well, my trust fund..."

I think that's Thurston Moore in the bottom left hand corner of the first screen shot in the vid.

i saw her live w/ BYOP- the band wasn't great, but she was at least fun to watch
