While I’m busy mooning over the lineups of California music festivals, I might as well talk up Noise Pop at the end of this month. (I happened to be in S.F. during the festival back in ’98 and got to see the world premiere of Kurt & Courtney. As recently as a couple weeks ago, I was half considering heading out there again at month’s end.)
Among the bands performing: British Sea Power, Call & Response, Neko Case, the Decemberists, Earlimart, Gold Chains, Kelly Hogan, Low, the Minders, Pedro the Lion, Preston School Of Industry, Rilo Kiley, The Stills, the Stratford 4, Super Furry Animals, Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players, The Unicorns, John Vanderslice, the Velvet Teen, Visqueen, and the Wrens. And of course the return of the mighty American Music Club.

I hope to be there too.
Moving to the Bay Area is proving to be worthwhile investment.

Why do the festivals taunt me so? Every time I turn around, it seems, they are announcing new bands. I fully expect Jesus to show up at one of these things. Sadly, they are all in far off California, damn them..
Jesus is unfortunately booked through the summer of 2004 as a spokesperson for Mel Gibson’s new flick about His life. But the festival should be a rockin good one anyway!
