We posted a couple of weeks ago about two new Deer Tick dates in NYC. One of those, the June 10th show at Bowery opening for Jaymay already took place and was recorded by one of our correspondents and will appear on nyctaper soon. The second show is the Rooftop Concert Series on June 20 that nyctaper will record.

Today we learned of two more NYC dates for Deer Tick:
June 21 Location TBA (ToddP) with Ponytail
June 30 Southpaw Brooklyn

Ponytail is also playing the After the Jump Festival on the afternoon of June 21.

Love Is All June 12, 2008 Cake Shop – Flac and MP3 Downloads

In a packed, hot and sweaty Cake Shop last night, Love Is All performed an extraordinarily tight and entertaining set of some new material, songs from their excellent CD Nine Times That Same Song, and completed wowed the opening night crowd of the NYC Popfest. This was power-pop-punk at its finest and most fun, full of boundless energy and spirit. We had only heard Love Is All on CD before, but this live performance was one of the most impressive we’ve seen thus far this year.

We recorded from far upfront, with our microphones taped to the wall 10 feet from the right PA speakers. The result is an outstanding clear and well balanced recording which captures the music and the crowd energy without any interruption. The only slight flaw is a minor wooshing noise evident between songs which is the result of the air conditioning duct above us. Enjoy!

Market Hotel Legal Woes Completely Over

June 11, 2008
By

This morning in a Brooklyn courtroom, the remaining four charges against the Market Hotel were dismissed by motion of the attorney for all of the defendants. The cases arose out of the legal troubles encountered at the Showpaper benefit in February.

The first four cases were dismissed in Manhattan in May. Today’s victory closes the entire matter in favor of the Market Hotel.

Death Cab For Cutie: June 10, 2008 McCarren Pool – Flac and MP3 Downloads

Death Cab For Cutie are currently on tour in support of their new album Narrow Stairs, which debuted at number one on the Billboard charts at its May release. In the press which has followed, both new and old media outlets have been puzzled to explain the widespread popularity of a band that does not fit within any conventional buzzword-definable mold.

We were particularly annoyed at an absurd article about Death Cab in the Sunday New York Times a few weeks ago. That article seemed obsessed with the concept that Death Cab’s popularity was not the result of “blogger buzz”, but rather was earned in some fictitious old-fashioned way (“clubland” and “honing their sound”) — “before blog buzz mattered”. This is an excellent point if you believe that the internet was created in 2004, or that commercial blogs are currently the only means by which fans learn about bands. Death Cab has been an internet-savvy band for over a decade, and indeed owes much of its success to its ubiquitous web presence at its website, forum, archive.org, and the spread of its music through bit torrent. Indeed, when bit torrent broke on the web in 2003, one of the first “leaked” albums we saw was Death Cab’s Transatlanticism, which appeared on SuprNova a good four months before its ultimate release.

Before he wrote the entertaining blog Parlando, the writer Soren deSelby often posted informative and well-written pieces on the original internet “blog”, the Well. A Seattle native, deSelby was one of the first internet writers to recognize the abilities of Death Cab, and to write about them on the Well. It was based on one of those posts that we purchased Something About Airplanes and began a decade-long interest in this band. In a very real way, Death Cab is the first band to parallel the advances of internet technology throughout its career in order the maintain a consistent trajectory that has ultimately placed them at number one on the charts.

So how was the concert, Mrs. Lincoln?

McCarren Pool on a 90+ degree day did not seem like the ideal venue to experience Death Cab, but by the first notes at 8:10 p.m. the heat was no longer an issue. Although he was beset by a series of technical problems, Ben Gibbard worked his way through the standard setlist for this tour before the elements ended the show early.

This recording is not one of our best efforts. We set up about 20 feet in front of the left stacks to avoid the wind and crowd noise, and were for the most part successful. The problem was that by being so close to the PA, we captured quite a bit of the early muddiness and peak level distortion in the early mix. Several songs into the set the mix improved but by then the wind had whipped up. We believe this is certainly a decent listening experience, but the recording was a victim of circumstance. Enjoy!

This recording is now available for Download in FLAC and MP3 at Archive.org [HERE].
