I had the op to return to Chicago for the holidays, and I got to catch up with The Waxwings since they were doing a show there. They are headed off to Europe for the first time to do some shows since "Shadows of The Waxwings" was just picked up by a British label as a one off. They are in discussions with another label to release a new record in late March or early April...this venture looks very promising! They hope to get back on the road in the US once the record is released. The single that was supposed to be released back in October is still on it's way. The date is still TBD. They performed new tracks at this gig, and they sounded great!! Later - L ps... To those Darkness fans or those interested in seeing what this band is like...they are going to be on Letterman tomorrow night. -- Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
