Don't follow twitter, and have posted in awhile so I wasn't sure if this was something that's already been discussed, but since I didn't see a thread mentioning it "specifically" in the header, thought I'd throw it out there just in case. Apologies if it's old news already.

Some cool news regarding next year's tour!

I was lucky enough to win a chance to see Raine & Steve do an intimate acoustic show this afternoon at local radio station WCYY. Besides a nice little set, and chance to speak with the guys afterward - one of the cool things we found out during the show was that for next year's part of the tour, the ...

I know alot of people are let down by this album which I cannot see how they are, this album to me is just amazing i can't stop playing it, everyday I play it and I have yet to get bored with it. My favourites are Paper moon, Escape Artist, Monkey Brains, and DreamLand. I like all the songs on the ...

In addition, even though I really like Escape Artist, Paper Moon probably would have been my favorite song if they'd structured it better, and if the choruses were elongated or multiplied. It really echoes how awesome OLP is. With the way Paper Moon exists, I find myself switching the song after ...

Yeah, I dig Evan & Magnet. Got most of his albums. His choice of cover songs are pretty good, too. (Dylan's "Lay Lady Lay" with Gemma Hayes, and Thin Lizzy's "Dancing In The Moonlight" to name a couple).

Much older, but you forgot the bands he was previously in, of which he was the producer for some of those albums, as well...

Port City has only been open since January. It's right on Congress St. in Downtown Portland, maybe a block or so away from One City Center. It's where The Stadium used to be (and actually, the bar part is still there), and before that it was Keystone Movie Theater. It was completely redesigned to be ...

I get you, I just don't see it the same. Maybe those aspects could be better, but personally, I don't have any issue with them the way they are. They're working for me just fine. Look at it this way, they could be so much worse, too. Imagine how it would be if they went through what they did making ...

:no:

This thread makes me oh so very sad.

I don't care if it's out-of-date to buy cds, I still do it, and will continue to do so until it's no longer possible.

I'm with you. (and that goes for vinyl, too) I want an actual piece of something I can have, hold in my hand and look at. If I choose ...

Well hell, guess I'll weigh in, too.

Personally, I love the new album. True, on first listen, I wasn't quite so sure how I felt about Burn Burn , but repeated listens have made this one of my favorite albums right now. Maybe it's still a bit more commercial sounding (like Gravity ) than some of ...

Yes, they need to come to Maine!
Unfortunately, the State Theater is closed, so I have no idea where they'd play.

If they played The Paradise, they could easily fill Port City Music Hall - they're about the same size/capacity. Which begs a good question - whoever is booking that place should ...

Enjoy!

Thanks so much for posting that! Wanted to go to that show badly, but 1 ...
