Homegrown

April 8th...Homegrown Live at the Riverside Warehouse...that's the first time I saw/heard Super Water Sympathy. They opened the show for Dear Ghost and Colour Revolt (two other awesome bands, by the way!) The first thing I noticed when I walked in was that SO many people came out to the show early...

For Monday, 6/13/11...my east Texas boys from A Theory on Conquest! Metal, baby! : )

The Southview guys join me tonight to talk about what all they've got coming up! And they have a new tune to share with you! Plus, Nathan just celebrated a birthday...so we have to pick on him a little. Haha! Also have a new tune from Expletive...

So yesterday I told you about my extensive band t-shirt collection, and that I've worn a different regional band's tee every day this week. I wanna see how long it takes me to go through each one of em. I have two groups: Group 1 consists of "guy-style" shirts...

After several days in a row of wearing regional bands' t-shirts to work...I've decided to make a series out of it. Not ALL the shirts I have actually FIT (at least, the way I WANT them to)...but I'm wondering how long it'll take to go through the ones that DO...

Several tunes on last night's Homegrown show ended up not playing...so I thought I'd post them here for you, so you can enjoy them as much as I have! First up...This Day Forth (from Longview, TX) - Defiance: Next...Dylan the Astronaut - Farewell My Little Viking: AAAAnd The Kul (from Texas) -- Addiction: Always appreciate your feedback...

In case you didn't catch last night's show, Shayliff made their Homegrown debut! Here's the interview, in two parts: Shayliff-Pt. 1 Shayliff-Pt. 2 We also recorded a live tune in the studio, which I didn't get to play on the show...

They're local...and they're coming at ya live! Shayliff! You might have caught them at the Riverside Warehouse with Brannigan recently...now, you can catch 'em there again! Find out all the details by tuning in...8-9 TONIGHT on 99x!

Two guest bands on tonight's show...Trepid and River Blindness! Trepid is playing two shows this coming weekend, so we'll be talking about that...and other random stuff. And River Blindness is playing the Riverside Warehouse Saturday night, along with The Agony of I and Sylo...

Joining me via phone on the way to New Mexico...Mac Carl, drummer for Brannigan. You might know the band by its former name...The Vehicle Reason.  Mac and I will be chatting about the upcoming Homegrown Live show at the Riverside Warehouse, featuring Brannigan and Shayliff (from Stonewall, LA), along with several other topics -- like...

You might have known them previously as Ultraswade...now, they've added a new (and very familiar to Homegrown) bass player and changed the name -- to The Laud Waters Band! They'll be chatting about what's been going on with them lately...

Joining me tonight...Ben Shirley and Luke Metcalf, to talk about the upcoming Homegrown Live-Unplugged show at the Riverside Warehouse! This is Ben's first time on Homegrown, and will be his first Warehouse show...and Luke's Homegrown debut, as well...
