BUMMED and ALONE.

Cant really do too much because of my fucking shoulder, I find out tomorrow (hopefully) what the deal is, so I decided to start another blog. It is primarily for music I am currently into that I found links too on the internet. I will post source info, etc if I can remember it. I will be posting show reviews, and other assorted links. tonysidwar.blogspot.com what you can expect to find on there, rants on Jerry Garcias guitar playing, Psych links, Hardcore links, Black Metal links and whatever I feel like posting at the time. Also check back on this blog because I am going to figure out how to compress and upload most of my discography to this thing. Hopefully this will keep my mind going in some sort of creative direction. thank you.

Plugs...

My friend Matt Wilga just had a solo 7" come out through a friends record label. Both incredible people/musicians, and the music on the 7" is excellent, from a selection of over 20 solo recordings he made 3 appear on this record. You can order it here http://laboroflove.tumblr.com/
I also highly recommend checking out his current band The Stoned Ambassadors, they have a myspace site, and a demo...

Glenn Jones has had his most recent record come out, its his first 12 inch, and it is absolutely stunning. The compositions are phenomenal, and he really puts his own tinge on the solo guitar. I think this is his best release so far and that is saying a lot. If you are a newcomer to this music, if you are well studied in this music, or if you are someone who just needs a great great record for their turntable pick this up, it will be the best 15 dollars you spent in a while. go here to buy http://www.strange-attractors.com/
