Hey everyone,
Just wanted to mention this show one more time--10
great pop bands are converging on Albany NY this
Friday night for BIG POP BARBECUE 2. Last year, we had
Bleu, the Damnwells, the Trouble Dolls, Ike, the
Stellas and Rocktopus on board (among others). This
year's lineup, while slightly more
regionally-oriented, is even cooler, if I do say so
myself.
Big Pop Barbecue 2
Friday Sept. 3, 7 PM doors
at Valentine's Music Hall
17 New Scotland Ave, Albany NY
518-432-6572 / www.valentinesalbany.com

true)
www.themathematicians.net

That's right. Ten bands, ten bucks. And I'm not joking
about the meat and stuff.
E-mail me for information, directions, or
recommendations.
Oh yeah, the new Suggestions record, "Getting
Through," should be out on October 19. (That's my
band, by the way.) I think this one's actually pretty
good. If anyone is interested in hearing more
about/from the album, let me know. We should have
samples online soon. This e-mail will self-destruct in
one second.

NP: the Posies "Frosting on the Beater," tracks 1-6,
