I pulled back into Urbana this morning after an exciting weekend in Chillicothe, IL, at Summer Camp 2007.

Family Groove Company, always a Burning Oak favorite, hit the Canopy Club last Friday night for a well-attended show. A very good night for covers, as it always is from the band, featuring the jam from Kansas’ “Carry On Wayward Son,” a rousing “Oye Como Va,” and a repeat rendition of The Beatles’ [...]

SXSW: Megan Melara @ Flipnotics

April 8, 2007

Quickly after Gina Lee & The Brisket Boys left the stage, Megan Melara walked on and began her set. She had a very good vibe and performed nearly all originals if I recall correctly, with the exception of a wonderful rendition of Leonard Cohen/Jeff Buckley’s “Hallelujah.” I did manage to find a copy [...]

SXSW: Bishop Allen @ Schuba's Day

March 31, 2007

Alright, many server issues aside I can get back to my SXSW coverage. After heading out from seeing The Teeth we walked across the street to the Schuba’s 11th Annual SXSW Roundup. I still can’t figure out what a Chicago venue is doing throwing parties in Austin, but all the power to them. [...]
