The weirdest part about seeing Dean Wareham play Galaxie 500 material wasn't I can't believe I get to hear this , but was I can't believe there's no one here to hear this!

In Live This Month , we sample some of the great local and out-of-town bands performing in the coming month in the San Francisco Bay Area. It seems we're in a "when it rains, it pours" sort of place for significant new local albums, and this mix only scratches the surface of the latest in Bay Area records, with songs from Ty Segall & White Fence , Sleepy Sun , Whirr , and Blasted Canyons.

Luna covers Guns N’ Roses

Wikipedia Despite their having a great number of great and interesting covers to their name, I genuinely didn't think I'd have occasion to post any more Luna on account of the fact that they ceased to exist seven years ago as of this past February and the '90s reunion bandwagon has not yet rolled through Luna-ville, nor is it likely to anytime soon.

It's pointless to pretend that I listened to 10 albums that were released in 2011, so I'm going to write about 10 classic albums that got a lot of airtime in my waxy ears this past year. 10.

Wed, August 18 2010 12:14pm - Source: Glorious Noise

From his time as a founder Galaxie 500 and hers in a similar capacity with The Belltower, through to their first collaboration together as Luna and subsequent marriage three years ago, Dean (Wareham) & Britta (Phillips) have proven to be an enigmatic yet exceptionally creative duo, whose music has withstood the test of over two decades.
