couple of things on me mind:

Muse: Absolution--Anyone who likes dramatic, classical chord changes and
mood within the scope of a rocking band with interesting sonic guitar and
keyboard textures--sort of like a blend of Queen, early Genesis, Radiohead
(vocally)-- you might like this...I LOVE IT and can't stop listening.
Anybody else diggin' this?  I think it came out in the UK last year and
domestically this year.

Maple Mars-I'll be performing in my keyboard/backing vocals post with my
favorite psych/pop combo (next to Chewy Marble...:) Maple Mars on Friday,
August 6th at Thee Parkside 1600 17th St for San Francisco IPO.  There are
some great bands on the bill that night and hope to see any auditeers out
there...

have fun,

Brian
