Benefit for Matt Hopper

Hey Everyone,

I’m playing a show this Tues (April 5). It’s a benefit for a cool musician friend of mine, Matt Hopper, who recently got his gear, laptop & Cds burgled from his car, while he was on tour. This tour has been his livelihood for the last 7 months, so we want to help him out & keep him going.

Details:
Tues, April 5
Universal Bar & Grill – 8PM
4093 Lankershim Boulevard, Universal City, CA 91602
818.766.2114
Cost: $5

I’ll be splitting an hours set w/my friend Steven Wilson of Plasticsoul around 9PM.
Also on the bill:
Carol Anne Plante, Brandon Schott, Daniel Jacob Horine (Millbrook), John Hoskinson, Eugene Edwards & Brian Whelan.

Universal Bar is right by the Universal Subway station, for those of you in Hollywood/Los Feliz/Downtown/Pasadena.

LIVERPOOL:
I’ve been invited to perform at the International Pop Overthrow Festival in Liverpool in late May, including a show at the Cavern Club. Yes, the original was torn down years ago, but they’ve since rebuilt it & Paul’s even performed there and given it his papal blessing, so for me, it’s as close as I’ll get. The pubs around Mathews Street the boys used to frequent are still going strong (White Star, Ye Cracke & The Grapes) so you can bet I’ll be darkening those doors. More details soon.

LISTENING TO:
*The Game w/50 Cent: Hate It Or Love It
I can’t get enough of this.

*Keren Ann: L'illusionniste & Jardin d'hiver
I think she recorded this in her Paris apartment. Classicist sensibilities, me likey.

*Steven Wilson/Plasticsoul: You Figured Me Out
From the FAWM Sessions.
My boy Steven is on a roll.

QUOTE:
Outspoken Oasis star Noel Gallagher has hit out at drug-addled rocker Pete Doherty for being too soft. The Wonderwall guitarist is adamant the troubled Babyshambles frontman wouldn't be able to cope with life in his hard rocking band.
Gallagher says: "Listen son, you wouldn't last a rehearsal in Oasis. You'd be injecting washing up liquid into your sphincter."
Hilarious!
