Pale Young Gentlemen - The Crook of My Good Arm Don't Look Now (1973). + Informações

Where is my heroine? Moony eyes and pearly skin. If you are a lie, I am a liar. We will meet someday soon, unaware and our of tune, you will panic in a way I'll later find to be your style. We will meet someday soon, it will terrify you. I had a dream, you had your doubts. Love, it won't bear the weight of a crown. Chorus I don't rely on things, I don't' rely on things, but I'm reliant on you and you're reliant on me. I set fire to things, I set fire to tings, I'll set fire to you, I'll set fire to me. We will meet someday soon, it will terrify you.. + Informações

Despite various logistical and technical problems at the various Pop Fests, they've always had good line-ups and been fun shows to see, and this one appeared to continue in that vein. But after missing Baby Teeth due to falling asleep on Friday, we wound up missing everybody we wanted to see on Saturday due to the parking crunch caused by football, hockey and something at the Overture Center. Of the bands I'd penciled into the schedule, the Selfish Gene are local, and easily seeable later, but Montreal's Malajube probably won't be back in the immediate future. On top of that, there's a general lack of good shows coming up in Madison for the rest of the year -- the Box Social play Thanksgiving weekend at the King Club, and that's basically it. But if this was going to all we saw of the Pop Fest, and nearly the last show we saw in 2007, it was a nice one to see, and a good reminder of the solid construction of the PYG sound. The new songs they played were enjoyable, and the band's growth is clearly giving them new avenues to explore.. + Informações

I never expect Emily to like new bands when we see them live, because she's just not wired that way, and Pale Young Gentlemen are not the type of band I'd think she'd like in general. Surprisingly, she got into it right away and came out of their set thinking they were pretty awesome. I agree.. + Informações

In the brief period between the Boston and Detroit trips, White Rabbits visited the High Noon and local up-and-comers Pale Young Gentlemen opened the show. I'd listened to their record, but the songs clicked much better on stage, and I'm looking forward to seeing them again. This one, like most of their set, was a higher-energy affair than I'd have expected, and was well-received by the band's sizable fan core.. + Informações

Even though, to be frank, we never went to a lot of Madison's many summer festivals, I was always really glad that they were there and will miss them when we move. They're great outlets for local music and give bands a chance to get in front of different audiences than they see in clubs. If anything I think this one might be growing -- it's the first time I've seen such a big-time stage setup for the Marquette Waterfront Festival.. + Informações

As I noted in the last clip, there was a flood of people out of the auditorium after the Pale Young Gentlemen set, and it was a crowd that was bigger than I expected. The band is certainly attracting a lot of attention these days, but they nearly filled the main floor of the room and had probably a third of the balcony full. As you can hear in this clip and in the others, things sounded a bit louder than a typical local indie rock show, and I think they may be on the verge of becoming Madison's Biggest Band (pending new Garbage material, natch).. + Informações

There were four bands that I kind of wanted to see on the Pop Fest schedule, two on each night, and all in Music Hall's Carol Rennebohm Auditorium. The trouble is that I was on a huge project deadline all week and got almost no sleep Thursday night before a full day of Friday meetings. When we got to Music Hall for the scheduled 10:15 set by Pale Young Gentlemen and the previous set was just starting, I could already feel myself not making it all the way through. How a show like this can get an hour off schedule so quickly is a mystery for the ages, I suppose, as is the question of how backdrops and strung lights can come crashing down from the rigging so easily, but the upshot is that I simply could not stay awake past midnight and had to miss the Baby Teeth that followed the PYG's. This was unfortunate since I really wanted to see them again and had even indicated as such to their frontman, Abraham Levitan; also it's a pretty cool auditorium and I'd've liked to have stuck around just in general. But instead I had to half-consciously leave, along with all the other tools without the decency to stick around for the touring act that followed their friends on stage. Hopefully what looked like a mass exodus after the PYG set was just people going outside to smoke and Baby Teeth got a decent reception; listening to their new album a bunch last week reminded me of how really solid they are.. + Informações

This one provides a nice opening to the PYGs most recent album, and apparently it's also great to dance and spin around to. A section of newer stuff came up in the set starting with this song, but overall the set seemed to be mostly first-album stuff that maybe works a little better live.. + Informações

Experiment time! Since the Marquette Waterfront Festival is an outdoor event, I decided to try out shooting a clip with my Nikon D90, knowing the dissipated sound wouldn't overwhelm its little mic. The potential advantages to this: 1) it shoots in HD, though I realized later that I hadn't actually set it to HD, and 2) I get the visual benefits of shooting through a nice SLR lens, with all the options that implies. But the disadvantages were many: 1) it's a lot heavier than my camcorder, 2) autofocus doesn't work for video, which limits my ability to alter the zoom angle very much, 3) can't really fiddle with any of the other options while shooting, either, 4) no image stabilization. But that said, I really like how the picture came out -- the detail's good enough to get a sense of how many little gnats were swarming around the lakeside -- and I think if I'd brought a tripod and thought about how I wanted to shoot in advance the weaknesses could've been overcome.. + Informações
