Hi everyone, i just subscribed. i'm from New Jersey and first heard modestmouse a year+ ago on the Princeton University radion station. after that, i immediately got Lonesome Crouded West. its has definitely been one of my favorite albums since i got it. i've slowly been getting more MM stuff and i'm dying to see them live. wouldn't you know it, i saw Built to Spill back in May, then MM goes and opens for them on the European leg of the tour. but, come hell or high water, i will see them next time they make it to NYC. i just saw Pavement in New York last month, and to warm up the crowd before they came out, they played the first 5 or 6 songs from Lonesome Crowded West. I guess Pavement was into it (the crowd was not). It was great, everybody was waiting anxiously for Pavement, the i hear the opening riff for "Teeth Like God's Shoeshine". needless to say i was psyched, especially since they played a good 15~20 minutes of the album. anyway, that's my introduction. if anybody has boots to trade, i'd love to do blanks for boots. i have a bunch of dinosaur jr and frank zappa boots to trade as well. keith _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
