Emmylou Harris

Emmylou Harris @ the El Rey Theatre April 2011

Last night Emmylou Harris did a show at the El Rey Theatre. And for those that care a special guest artist was indeed special- Ryan Adams! He did a few new songs and ended his set with a song with Emmylou. Most people would be suprised by me being such a fan. Yeah every punk loves Johnny Cash and his rebel attitude, but this love is still punk related. I am a huge fan of the band X. Over the years they have worked with Dave Alvin from the Blasters,  and I became a fan of his folk/americana solo records. That sound in turn gave way to listening to Red Dirt Girl and I was hooked. She has an amazing voice. I wasn't there to take pics but I did bring my little canon point & shoot... besides playing the whole new album that drops next week she ended the set with a old song by John Lennon - Imagine. Good times!

Fraud

Fraud @ Glasshouse 6/6/11 Yes I know this was the second night of the Outspoken/Mouthpiece/Youth of Today show but this band deserves its own post. Fraud is a brand new band featuring the likes of old hardcore dudes from bands like Chain of Strength, Inside Out, Statue, Excel, Pushed Aside and Against the Wall. And we all know how much I love Chain of Strength, so I was excited to see this bands first show. It was a quick set but they were on fire. I missed Outspoken the first night due to work so I was glad to get a chance to see them Monday night. Mouthpiece had a great set, it was funny to see Ben Merlis in the crowd singing every single song along with Tim.  No Curtis for the second night but Mouthpiece did get Porcell to do Straight Edge Revenge. I'll say it again- Youth of Today were just as great now as they were 20 years ago. But I thought the show was going to end early though,  just past the half way point of Youth of Todays set Ray fell and hurt his leg. Porcell took
