My favorite "little" band is finally coming back to the States this Fall. The Scot band hasn't toured the U.S. since '92 so if you have any inkling of seeing them, this would be the time. They have a new CD coming out as well called "Weightless". And, yeah, this one is actually going to be released in the U.S. Only their 4th proper album since 1990.

Dammit, how come nobody ever comes through Columbus?

Have fun when you see them.

Chicago looks to be the closest show for me, but Detroit would be the better option since it's on a Sunday. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to make either one.

I've always liked "Hayfever", but I never bothered to pick up any of their albums until I found Cake and I've Seen Everything in the $1.00 bin at a local used CD shop a couple of years ago.
