Video: AC Newman: November 2008

I am still out of town -- yes, I'm still writing FROM THE PAST (mwahaha) -- but there was a lot going on this weekend in the Lou. Where did everyone go? What did everyone see? What good shows happened... Continue reading "The Weekend That Was: What Did Everybody Do?" >

Thanks to Stereogum for pointing me towards this video of A.C. Newman covering the Go-Betweens' "Love Goes On." Don't forget, Newman's newest solo record Get Guilty is out in January!

New Pornographer A.C. (Carl) Newman's pop-drenched Get Guilty , the followup to 2004's Slow Wonder , is out at the beginning of '09. You've already heard the opener " There Are Maybe Ten Or Twelve " and now there's maybe one or one Go-Betweens covers to add to the Newman canon. It's a non-album track. He did it live at the Bell House in Brooklyn. See if you can guess the tune without peeking.
