In our usual fashion we have been obsessing on bands from the past here at The Red Radio . The Farm fill our current "on repeat" selection. Shopping through iTunes the other day we just discovered that there was an actual live record released in 2007 titled All Together Now . Most of the tracks were recorded live at Brixton Academy in London and a few at the Liverpool Rehearsal Rooms. Interesting. It was exciting to find something unknown (to us anyway) on [...]

We are so excited that the weekend is here that we feel like some good old time [...]

The venue is much more intimate, parking is easy and there is not a bad spot to stand in the house. Tickets go on sale tomorrow. More info here .

Kinda digging the song after multiple listens - you?
Alert - vintage Kay Hanley . She was one of my big crushes of the mid-nineties. I can't believe how young Kay is here in this opening interview clip where she talks about the band's big break on the Melrose Place soundtrack! She is sitting next to now husband Michael Eisenstein - bandmates at the time. Letters To Cleo's debut Aurora Gory Alice is still one of our favorite records - ever. Fast [...]
