[Rick and Roll]

airing Sunday, June 8 from 8-11 PM EST and Monday, June 9 from 1-4 PM EST


Ten years the Northeast Art Rock Festival (NEARfest) has been the the place to be, and I've been fortunate enough to attend them all. This will be the 4th year I will be dedicating a show to artists that will be playing in that year. No anecdotes this week, just the songs -

Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso - Dopo...niente e piu stesso
Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso - Il Giardino del Mago
Liquid Tension Experiment - Freedom of Speech
Synergy - Legacy
Koenji Hyakkei - Grembo Zavia
Peter Hamill - A Louse Is Not A Home
Van Der Graaf Generator - Killer
Van Der Graaf Generator - Architectural Hair
Radio Massacre International - Rain Falls In Grey
Fish - The Perception of Johnny Punter
Fish - Credo
Echolyn - Winterthru
Echolyn - Suite For The Everyman
Discipline - Mickey Mouse Man
Discipline - Crutches

Not many songs, but a full three hours' worth. Here's hoping Discipline pulls out a little Mickey Mouse...had the pleasure of seeing that done at Progday the year before Nearfest was born (which is the version we will hear).

Next week is the full Beardfish and Matthew Parmenter CD's from 2008, and a few new King's X cuts and a lady from Wisconsin playing some geetar. And then a week off!
