What You Can Expect
When you reach the stables, your guide will give you a quick safety briefing and show you how to put on your riding hat, before helping you into the saddle for a practice session around the riding arena and show you basic command such as walk and halt for approximately 30 minutes. Every effort will be made to ensure that you're well matched to your horse, with novice riders given the gentlest ones.
Setting off at a leisurely pace, follow your guide on horseback along secluded roads to this incredible park. Here, you'll ride through the Catalan countryside typified by leafy forests, lush pine groves and rolling hills. Your guide's expert knowledge of the local terrain means that you'll be taken on the best trails to suit your ability.
While this riding tour is aimed at novice- to intermediate-level riders, should you be more advanced, your guide will give you the opportunity to trot or canter through this gorgeous countryside. After roughly 1.5 hours of riding, return to the stables and help the groom unsaddle, shower or feed your horse.
Before returning to Barcelona, sit down and relax with the rest of your group to enjoy a light lunch of bread, Spanish omelet and cheeses, while sharing tales of your unforgettable horseback adventure in Spain.

June 2015
Fantastic trip - really recommend it if you are visiting Barcelona and fancy a day out in the country. Lots of expert help and guidance with riding tips and caring for the horses.
June 2015
This was a GREAT activity for our family. We LOVED the horses -- they were extraordinarily gentle and responsive. We appreciated the time we were given in the corral to get to know our horses before hitting the trail. This is not a wilderness experience -- more suburban, but we were led up a hill at the top of which we had a breathtaking, panoramic view of greater Barcelona. We would do this trip again. It was a great break from museums and cathedrals
June 2015

Spaniards protest financial terrorism
Thousands have taken to the streets in Spain to show their outrage at the death of 53-year-old Amaia Egana who jumped to her death after facing eviction from her Bilbao home. Protests took place in number of cities including the capital Madrid as well as Barakaldo, a suburb of Bilbao in the Basque region, with demonstrators chanting slogans such as ''No eviction unanswered… We must stop financial terrorism." Protesters called on the government to immediately put an end to foreclosures across recession-hit Spain and blamed tough austerity measures for the suicides in the country. Spain's economy collapsed into recession in the second half of 2008, leaving more than 400,000 families homeless. On October 26, new figures released by Spain's National Statistics Institute showed that the country's unemployment rate climbed to 25.02 percent in the third quarter of 2012, up from the previous 24.63 percent. Protests have also been growing against the Spanish government's austerity measures and labor reforms, which are hitting the middle and working classes the hardest, amid the deepening economic crisis. The Spanish government remains adamant that austerity measures are needed to carry it through the crisis. MAM/HGH

Obama administration already set red line on Iran: Analyst
The Obama administration has put down a red line. They've put down a red line saying that we will not let Iran get a nuclear weapon; we're prepared to use military force to stop that."US President Barack Obama says Israel's call for drawing red line over Iran's nuclear energy program is just "noise" he tries to ignore. Moreover, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on September 10 that Washington is "not setting deadlines" for a diplomatic resolution of the dispute over Iran's nuclear energy program. However, in an exclusive interview with Press TV, Robert Naiman, policy director with Just Foreign Policy, tells us that the Obama administration has already set a red line over Iran's nuclear energy program. The following is a rough transcription of the interview. Press TV: The drums of war have been beating from Israel over an apparently imminent attack on Iran. There's no doubt that if Romney was in the White House he'd give the go ahead. Do you see this as a real threat which President Obama may even be trying to hold back? Naiman: I'm certain that President Obama does not want a war with Iran now, neither initiated by the United States, nor by Israel. I'm moreover certain that the overwhelming consensus of the Pentagon and the mainstream of the national security…in the United States is that war with Iran is an incredibly stupid, destructive idea. We saw powerful evidence of that in the last week. There was a bipartisan report of foreign policy eminences called the Iran project. This was top officials, military and political, from past Democratic and Republican administrations, published this report saying what would be the likely consequences of a war with Iran? They said, at best, the US attacks on Iran -- never mind an Israeli attack which Israel's military capacity is much lower than the United States. The US attack on Iran, at best would set back Iran's nuclear program for four years and it would likely provoke a major war in the region and would likely accelerate forces in Iran that want to push for having a nuclear weapon. It was a very, very damning critique of this idea with impeccable establishment credentials. That that's what the cool hands in Washington think about this idea. I'm not thinking about neo-conservatives, that's another thing. The neo-conservatives around Romney and the Netanyahu boosters, that's something else. They love the idea of war with Iran, and they love the idea of using the threat as a way to get attention on them and push for more demands for more stringent sanctions on Iran. No serious foreign policy analyst in the United States thinks it's a good idea. No serious member of the foreign policy establishment thinks this is a good idea. I suspect that the real story is that one has got the Likud so, their knickers in a twist, I think you say. What they're really afraid of is that the Obama administration is moving towards the policy of, if they don't say it, containment of Iran "with a nuclear weapon capability;" not that Iran will acquire a bomb but that everybody will understand that Iran is close enough that if they were attacked, they could respond to the attack by pushing for a nuclear weapon. The Obama administration has put down a red line. They've put down a red line saying that we will not let Iran get a nuclear weapon; we're prepared to use military force to stop that. That sounds tough and it is, and I don't necessarily endorse it, but there's the flip side to that which is that if you're going to use military threat as a deterrent to Iran from getting a nuclear bomb, there's kind of an implicit semi-guarantee underneath that which is that if you don't go for a nuclear bomb then we won't attack you because, obviously, if I'm going to attack you no matter then my threat is meaningless. If I want my threat to be meaningful to deter something that I want, then I have to save it for the thing that I really don't want.
This is what the Israelis are afraid of, that the US is accommodating themselves to the status quo, accommodating themselves to the idea that we're never going to have a war with Iran, which means that the Israeli deterrence against Iran, from their point of view, the Likud's point of view, will be diminished.The next time the people in Likud want to invade Lebanon or invade Gaza, maybe they would have to think twice about doing that because maybe Iran would help Hezbollah more than they did in 2006 because they are not afraid of Israeli retaliation. This is the logic of the neo-conservatives and the Likud because they can't tolerate that there be parity in the region between Israel and Iran because that would be a deterrent against Israeli military adventures. I think this is the real story.
The fact of the matter is that the people in the Obama administration, this is not something to be afraid of. They don't particularly feel the need to go to the wall for the ability of Israel to invade Lebanon or the ability of Israel to invade Gaza. I think that's the real story underneath the hype.The good news is that if you look at the poll analysis and all the bad stuff attached to Romney now with his fundraiser video, his comments about the events in Libya, Mr. Obama is the favorite to win. Iran fear-mongering doesn't seem to be working to try and change the debate in the United States. The betting money suggests that a couple of months from now Barack Obama is still going to be president of the United States and the neo-conservatives are going to be out in the cold. GMA/SS

Budget in the Balance
The GOP gambles on entitlement reform.
Apr 11, 2011, Vol. 16, No. 29 • By STEPHEN F. HAYES
John Boehner, who had previously indicated an openness to entitlement reform, was angry that a president who had lectured Republicans thought he could get away with a transparently unserious approach to entitlements. In a February 13 appearance on Meet the Press, Boehner surprised even some members of his own caucus when he announced: "You'll see our budget where, I've got to believe, we're going to deal with the entitlement problem."
Not to be outdone, the following day Majority Leader Eric Cantor reiterated that call, promising that the GOP budget would be a "serious document that will reflect the type of path we feel we should be taking to address the fiscal situation, including addressing entitlement reforms, unlike the president did in his budget." That evening, at a Republican whip meeting, the House majority whip, Kevin McCarthy, formally notified his caucus that the Republican budget would include entitlement reform.
Senate Republicans, including Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and several other strong conservatives, are more cautious. Their argument is simple. Republicans only have a majority in the House, and real reform cannot happen unless the GOP wins the Senate and the White House in 2012. Getting specific on entitlement reforms now makes that less likely.
"There's more willingness on the House side," says DeMint. "Paul Ryan has shown real leadership on the issue. He's confident in what he believes, and he explains it well. Our leadership is much more reserved. They feel there is no need to get specific when the president isn't specific with us. Some of us feel, individually if not as a conference, that in order to be credible with our budget numbers we have to include entitlement reform."
It's hard to overstate the significance of this moment. By including numbers in the budget that assume real reform, Republicans have obligated themselves to sell voters on a way to meet those objectives. Senators who prefer to keep their heads down and avoid specifics will find it increasingly difficult to do so as reporters ask whether they agree with Ryan's targets and reforms.
The same will be true of presi-dential candidates. Reporters will ask those questions, and so will voters.
"I think Iowa Republicans are expecting to hear specifics from presidential candidates on entitlement reform," says Matt Strawn, chairman of the Iowa Republican party and host of the first GOP presidential contest next winter. "Caucus-going Republicans are going to insist on seeing the details of entitlement reform proposals to see that you're serious about tackling the largest fiscal issue facing this country. A strong message on that has to be part of a successful presidential campaign."
Polling on the issue suggests that while most voters understand the problem, they remain divided on possible solutions. A Gallup poll from October illustrates the challenge. Asked whether the cost of major entitlements "will create major economic problems," 77 percent of respondents said they would. Just 18 percent said no. But only 31 percent of those surveyed said the government should cut benefits to address the issue, while 66 percent said it shouldn't. Similarly, 42 percent favored raising taxes and 56 percent were opposed.
A poll taken last month by Resurgent Republic, a Republican group, was slightly more encouraging but made clear the challenges Republicans face by taking on the issue. By 54 percent to 39 percent, voters agreed that elected officials should make benefit changes to Social Security now to preserve it for those 55 years old and under. But given a choice between Congressman A, who favors taking Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid "off the table" to avoid "balancing the budget on the backs of our seniors and the poor," and Congressman B, who says we cannot balance the budget without tackling those three programs because they take up more than half of all domestic spending, more voters sided with Congressman A—by 53 percent to 41 percent. (Independents agreed with Congressman A in roughly the same proportions.)
If Republicans want to know how to talk about entitlement reform, their freshman senator from Florida provides a good model. In a debate on Fox News Sunday in March 2010, Marco Rubio explicitly endorsed the bold reforms in Paul Ryan's "Roadmap," including individual Social Security accounts for future retirees. He declared that he would be open to raising the retirement age and making cost-of-living adjustments to Social Security.
"I think all of that has to be on the table, including the way we index increases in cost of living. All of these issues have to be on the table. They have to be options that I would be open to. They are included in the Ryan Roadmap. I think it's the right approach to Social Security reform."

And the Seahawks owner is going why did you spend so much on Flynn? By all accounts Carol pushed for him to be drafted and made the call to play him over Flynn.
Actually, it was stated that the GM was the reason the Seahawks had any interest in DangeRuss. He presented the idea to Carroll and the rest is history. And he just outplayed Flynn..lol

Actually, it was stated that the GM was the reason the Seahawks had any interest in DangeRuss. He presented the idea to Carroll and the rest is history. And he just outplayed Flynn..lolbased on what I heard it was the other way around. Clearly both had to like him or they wouldn't have drafted him however you don't pay Flynn what they did and not expect him to be the starter. I'll give the credit to the coach for making the call to play Russell that was the big call here.
As for the award Grigsons draft produced five starters by seasons end (and four all year) along with another seeing major playing time in brazil. He also signed a rookie free agent stud in freeman. On top of that he has made 40 personal moves during the season to help battle injuries and help improve a 2-14 football team to 11-5 matching the second best mark in league history in terms of number of wins from one season to the next. He did it with little cap room and cutting most of the talent they did have including Peyton Manning who might be the league MVP and setting them up to have great cap space going forward. Oh and his head coach left after game three to battle cancer.
What the Seahawks did was impressive but what Grigson did was amazing for any GM let alone a rookie one.

Nickelodeon's Naked Brothers come to Knoxville to promote their act - and wash their clothes
- What:The real-life brothers have their own weekly series, a made-for-TV movie coming and a new CD already out.
- When: The series airs at 8:30 p.m. Saturdays; "Polar Bears" movie premieres at 8 p.m. on June 6; the CD "I Don't Wanna Go To School" is now in stores.
- Where: Nickelodeon
This is how "Naked Brothers Band" star Alex Wolff rolls.
"I'm wearing the same pants as yesterday," admits the 10-year-old Nickelodeon actor, recalling something he said to his mother earlier in the morning.
Turns out that during the cross-country trip he and his brother, Nat Wolff, have been taking to promote their series and new CD ("I Don't Wanna Go To School"), a tube of toothpaste exploded in their suitcase. Their clothes had paste all over them - as well as a minty taste that most dentists recommend.
Ah, that's life as a young rock star. One minute, you're sleeping in your hotel room before meeting the fans. The next moment you have toothpaste all over your favorite T-shirt.
"Naked Brothers" came out of an idea from the Wolff siblings' mother, writer/actress Polly Draper. She penned a "home movie" of her sons in a story that made them huge rock stars. The project - a mockumentary - got such a great response from Nickelodeon executives that it was turned into a series.
And from that, the boys, who sing their own material and play their own instruments, became real-life pop stars.
In real life, Nat and Alex aren't that different from other boys their age. Alex, in particular, has a quick wit and his own charm. Nat is more focused and a natural straight man for his young brother's one-liners.
The boys nicknamed themselves "Naked Brothers." They used to call themselves that as tykes coming out of the tub.
During a recent trip to East Tennessee to meet fans and plug their new CD, the guys greeted thousands of admirers. "I am obsessed with them," says 15-year-old fan Celina McManus of Farragut. "They are so talented and adorable. I love them so much."
Draper says the appeal of the show is "aspirational."
Kids "feel like they know them. They like them," she says.
The Wolffs write their music when they can fit it in - between filming and going to school. "We mainly do it late at night," says Nat, 13. "I usually do it when I am supposed to be doing something else."
Nat wrote "I Don't Wanna Go To School" one day when he said that very line to his mother. She said he could stay home if he wrote the song. He did. She made him go anyway.
A third season begins production this summer in New York. The green friendly "Polar Bears," a made-for-TV movie starring the Naked Brothers, premieres June 6. The movie has the brothers getting anxious about the state of the world's environment.
Undoubtedly, this will keep the hearts of their easily excitable fans fluttering more.
As Nat witnessed at their recent signing, "the girls are yelling and crying. I'm thinking, 'What is going on?' … It's pretty cool."

The government on Tuesday called for greater help for young people in Japan struggling with employment issues and other problems, saying that suicide accounts for nearly half of deaths among those in their 20s.
The appeal was made in a 2013 white paper on suicide adopted at a Cabinet meeting Tuesday. The report, citing National Police Agency data, said 27,858 people committed suicide in 2012, down 2,793 from the previous year and dipping below 30,000 for the first time in 15 years.
According to a 2011 survey by the health ministry, suicides accounted for 47 percent of deaths among people in their 20s. The National Police Agency said suicides related to failure to secure jobs increased to 149 in 2012 from 60 in 2007.
The report also said suicides are also increasing among those in their 20s because of problems at work such as fatigue, mistakes and personal relations.
The report sees a strong link between suicides and the unemployment rate and called for comprehensive economic measures to cap suicides linked to economic issues.

RANT: Guys that can't keep a fucking secret!!!
This rant goes out to all of the guys here that can't keep a fucking secret!!!!
Two years ago this was a virtual sex den for guys to hookup with women, couples, gay bois, and trannies! Now, because some of you fucking assholes couldn't keep a good thing to yourselves, your big ass pie holes have turned CL into an adult movie arcade!!!! You know, the one where you pretend you're "browsing" for 3 hours when in fact you're waiting for that "hit or miss" cocksucker to show up! AND when one finally does, you jostle into line with a bunch of other "horny" guys with their wangs out!!!
1) The women on W4M are rare and the few that show up are bombarded with 100 creepy guys looking to get laid! Friday Flash is folklore because of the dumbass guys berating ladies showing their tits!
2) The fucking prices on Erotic Encounters have gotten out of control! Fatass skanks that had to give discounts to compete with top shelf girls like Sarah and Isabella are now charging double because hard up dickheads are willing to pay anything for some snatch! NOT TO MENTION THE STING OPERATIONS!!!!
3) In the M4M section a "Top" was a rare commodity and a "Married" guy would have offers of cocksuckers willing to pay for the opportunity to suck cock! Now the tables have turned and now you must be these cumsluts type!!!! "Emails without a face and cock pic will get deleted" was never uttered from cocksuckers!!!!
4) Couples in MW4M were abundant. Meet at a bar, pork the wife and blow your load on the hubby, bada bing..bada boom! Now, couples are holding fucking interviews and looking over your tax returns!!!!
5) The T4M section was exotic, mysterious, and filled with hot and sexy gurls like Amaya begging for cocks and some booze. Now, guys fight over the chance to rump wrangle grandpa wearing a wig!
6) Finally Rants & Raves!!!! It's called "RANTS & RAVES"!!!! You RAVE about something or RANT about something!!! Now, it's a bunch of trolls!!!! Chicago R&R used to be good for a "best of" consistenly!!! Now, there's nothing but flamers, flaggers, and porn junkies!!!!
So, for all of you fucking loose-lipped guys who told all of your buddies about Craigslist because you talk more than a bunch of women having afternoon tea......NICE GOING ASSHOLES!!!!!
it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

For Northampton's Speedy Ortiz, the show is part of a short December tour which also includes another Brooklyn show happening on December 13 at Shea Stadium with Grooms, Lushes, and Eartheater.

Today (9/17,Rosh Hashanah for many), protestors have taken to the streets around Wall Street on the one-year anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movment. The anniversary celebration kicked off yesterday, on Sunday, in Foley Square near City Hall where a stage was setup for a five-hour concert featuring familiar, OWS-supporting names like Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Lee Ranaldo (and Steve Shelley) of Sonic Youth, Michelle Shocked, Jello Biafra of Dead Kennedys, and Jimmy McMillan, who as we pointed out last week, will be running for mayor again because the rent is still too damn high!

Sonic Youth - Smart Bar - Chicago 1985Tracklisting below...

Release Date : November 14, 2012
In August 1985 Sonic Youth were touring across the states following the release of their recently released LP 'Bad Moon Rising'.

This live recording consists of much of Bad Moon Rising and early performances of Secret Girl + Expressway to Yr Skull later to be released on EVOL, as well as a rare never before released live rendition of Kat 'N' Hat.
Mixed and mastered by the band from the original tape source for this double LP edition w/ download card (or CD or digital edition) along w/ liner notes by Gerard Cosloy and Sonic Youth engineer Aaron Mullan and photos by Pat Blashill and Steven Koress and released by Sonic Youth on their own label Goofin' Records and distributed via Revolver USA.

Sonic Youth are promising some kind of "news" at noon Monday. Meanwhile we can hope it's related to Steve Shelley leaving Disappears (but we'll keep our expectations low by listening to the Facebook commenter who wrote " Likely announcing one of the archival releases Lee already mentioned in an interview: '85 live show, '86 tour film or the deluxe Sister reissue.").
UPDATE: It's a live album.

Lee's Sonic Youth bandmate Steve Shelley not only plays in Lee Ranaldo's band and Spectre Folk, but also runs new label Vampire Blues which just released new records by Spectre Folk and Chris Lee so this is basically a big label launch / record release party. You can stream both below via a Spotify player. Shelley plays drums on Chris Lee's new album, Bury the Kings, so he may not leave the drum kit all night.
In other related news, Ranaldo's other other band, Glacial, just released their new album, On Jones Beach, which consists of one 42-minute track. (Pitchfork gave it an 8.0.) Ranaldo will also be playing this year's ATP New York in September. And Thurston Moore's new band, Chelsea Light Moving, plays their first NYC show at 285 Kent on September 12 and tickets are still available with proceeds going to benefit Charalambides' Tom Carter who fell seriously ill this year while touring Europe.

Chelsea Light Moving at Sled Island 2012 (more by Zach Pollack)
Thurston Moore's new band, Chelsea Light Moving, who played a few shows in June (Sled Island included) has finally announced a show in Thurston's hometown of NYC. Chelsea Light Moving will play
Issue Project Room 285 Kent on September 12 with Steve Gunn and White Out. (UPDATE: The show is presented by Issue Project Room but it's happening at 285 Kent.) Tickets for that show are on sale now. All proceeds go to Tom Carter.
You've already heard the band's first song, "Burroughs," which you can now watch "the officially unofficial video" for below. They've since revealed two more songs, "Groovy & Linda" and "Frank O'Hara Hit," both of which you can download above.
Chelsea Light Moving isn't the only new project of Thurston's. It was also recently confirmed that he joined black metal supergroup Twilight, which there has been talk of since 2010. Thurston joins a lineup of Nachtmystium's Blake Judd and Sanford Parker, The Atlas Moth's Stavros Giannopolous, Leviathan's Wrest (aka Jef Whitehead), Krieg's Imperial (aka Neill Jameson), and Isis/Old Man Gloom's Aaron Turner. In a press release (via P4K) Thurston says, "We're not coming together to make music, we're joining forces to destroy all rational thought."
In other Sonic Youth news, in an interview with BBC Radio 5 Live, Lee Ranaldo revealed that the band hope to release a deluxe edition of Sister and live albums from specific points in their career, with a 1985 live album coming "in the next couple months." They also have recordings they made for films that were never released that they'd like to get out there.
That video is below.

Mike Watt played Stooges songs w/ J Mascis & many guests @ LPR (to celebrate his book) -- pics, video, setlist
by BBG
In the live interview that took place before Hellride East (aka J.Mascis and Murph of Dinosaur Jr, and the guest of honor for the evening Mike Watt) hit the stage, Watt told rock critic Byron Coley about his intense love for John Coltrane ("I thought he was a punk") and how The Stooges changed his life. It was the latter that formed the basis for Hellride East's set at Le Poisson Rouge last night (5/2), as part of a release party for Mike Watt's new book On & Off Bass.
Featuring opening sets from throwback punk rockers Dead Trend and Brooklyn post-punkers Appomattox, the Hellride East set was comprised of 100% Stooges covers along with a shockingly large number of guest appearances. Names like Thurston Moore, Sharon Van Etten, Kurt Vile, Steve Shelley, and a gang of other guests sauntered on stage to help tear through Stooges classics like "TV Eye", "Loose" (with Thurston), "Dirt" (with Sharon), "Not Right", "Down on the Street", "1970", set closer "Fun House" and many more. Though the band was clearly loose and out to have a good time, it was a night of wonderful surprises and, like Iggy would say, a "Real Cool Time".
If you were there last night, you might already have a copy of the book (and signed). If not, you can still order yours. Mike Watt recently completed a tour with his old band fIREHOSE which hit Coachella.
Pictures and the setlist from Le Poisson Rouge, a video from the interview session, and the audio from an interview Mike did on WNYC Soundcheck earlier in the day, below...

Wilco in Chicago (more by Matt Zeigler)
"Levon was the glue, not just in The Band, but in all of what people think of when they think of North American music. He was a great unifier; a great glue. He unified blues and country, rural and city, and even North and South. Luckily he showed us all the way to keep it together and let it swing."- Jeff TweedyRIP Levon.
Wilco, missing Levon like the rest of us, have announced even more tour dates including two Celebrate Brooklyn shows at the Prospect Park Bandshell which happen right between the previously announced Camden and Rhode Island shows. The Brooklyn dates and openers are July 23 with Lee Fields & The Expressions and July 24 with Lee Ranaldo Band (of Sonic Youth). Tickets will go on pre-sale on May 2nd at 10AM EDT and regular sale on Friday at 10AM EDT.
Lee Ranaldo Band are doing a other few dates on the Wilco tour too and touring with M.Ward (who they play a sold out Webster Hall with). M. Ward also plays Prospect Park this summer, but with Yo La Tengo.

Thurston Moore & Samara Lubelski playing free Brooklyn show (RSVP), played the Allen Room & Austin (pics & video)
Thurston Moore & Samara Lubelski in Austin (more by Tim Griffin)
As you may have seen on BV Austin (and above), Thurston Moore brought his current tour to Austin last week and played sold out show at St. David's Church, not long after his NYC show at the Allen Room as part of the American Songbook Series (that Tune-Yards and Bill Callahan also played)...
"Why can't we play facing this way?" Thurston Moore asked during his February 2nd acoustic, solo concert at New York's Allen Room, turning from the audience and gazing through the floor-to-ceiling glass behind his band. In fact, he did. Halfway through "Ono Soul," from his 1995 album Psychic Hearts, the Sonic Youth guitarist swung around toward the winter's-night view across Central Park, holding his instrument over his head, then aiming it at his small amp like a divining rod, drawing out a broad drone of distortion." [Rolling Stone]Watch a video from the NYC show below (of Thurston playing and reciting poetry), and check out the pictures from Austin.
Thurston's band included Samara Lubelski on violin, and that's who will be playing with him next Thursday (2/23) at Issue Project Room in Brooklyn as part of a poetry event called "Littoral: Flowers & Cream" and along with sets (or poetry?) by Anselm Berrigan, John Coletti, and Ben Estes & Elaine Kahn. Admission is FREE, but you need a ticket.
Speaking of Issue Project Room, Ensemble Pamplemousse plays there tonight (2/17).
Speaking of St. David's Church in Austin, Islands plays there tonight.
Speaking of churches in Austin, Pitchfork announced their SXSW showcase.

Mike Kelley in 1983's The Banana Man
Artist Mike Kelley has passed away at his home in Los Angeles, having apparently taken his own life. The tragic news was confirmed... by Helene Winer, of New York's Metro Pictures gallery, a long-time associate of the artist.Many in the music world might also know Mike Kelley's art from the iconic cover of Sonic Youth's Dirty (Thurston Moore was also the one who released the Destroy All Monsters albums in 1994). Read more about his fruitful career at Wikipedia.
"It is totally shocking that someone would decide to do this, someone who has success and renown and options," said Winer. "It's extremely sad." She added that the artist had been depressed.
Kelley was born in 1954 in a suburb of Detroit, Michigan. He became involved in the city's music scene as a teen, and while a student at the University of Michigan, formed the influential proto-punk band Destroy All Monsters with fellow artists Jim Shaw, Niagara, and Cary Loren (a retrospective devoted to Destroy All Monsters was held at L.A.'s Prism gallery last year). Together, the band hatched a style of performance that skirted the edge of performance art...
Kelley's career took off in the early 1990s, with solo shows at the Whitney, LACMA, and other international venues. He and Oursler organized a well-recived installation -- a kind of monument to punk -- at Documenta X in 1997. In the early 2000s, he began exhibiting with Gagosian Gallery after 20 years with Metro Pictures. -[ArtInfo]
R.I.P. Mike Kelley.
Yo La Tengo Hanukkah @ Maxwell's 12/22/2011 (via TheRealYLT)
The Lee Ranaldo Band and comedian Ted Alexandro opened the third night of Hanukkah for Yo La Tengo at Maxwell's. Lee, Steve Shelley, and Alan Licht, who is also in Lee's band, joined Yo La Tengo for a number of songs in the latter half of their set, including a cover of Sonic Youth's "Mote," which Lee sings lead on. In the encore, Yo La Tengo covered John Cale's "Andalucia" and Barry Manilow's "Mandy," the latter of which they were joined by John Cameron Mitchell on vocals. Check out the full setlist via Frank & Earthy below.
Who will open the fourth show tonight? Spent reunited for the second night. The setlist from that show is below too. We posted the first night's setlist HERE.
Speaking of Lee Ranaldo, he's working on his solo album called Between The Times & The Tides, which will be out March 20 via Matador. As mentioned, his live band includes Alan Licht, Irwin Menken, and SY bandmate Steve Shelley. All three members contribute to the album in addition to Sonic Youth collaborator Jim O'Rourke, Nels Cline, John Medeski, Bob Bert (who drummed in SY before Steve Shelley joined, and was also in Pussy Galore who are rumored to be opening one of the YLT shows), Lee's wife and longtime collaborator Leah Singer, and Kathy Leisen. The album was produced by Lee Ranaldo and John Agnello, who produced Sonic Youth's most recent album, The Eternal. According to Sonic Youth's site, he is planning a 2012 tour. Lee spoke to Rolling Stone about the new album:
It's eight songs with a full band and two songs with pretty much acoustic guitar only. I've always been an acoustic guitar player and I've pretty much continued to play acoustic guitar throughout all of the Sonic Youth periods. My material for Sonic Youth often started on acoustic guitar. What was refreshing about this was just to see all these songs sprout and actually kind of follow each other down this road and actually get completed. I've got millions of tapes of half-completed songs and for some reason, at this point, I had the energy to take them all the way through to the end.And about the future of Sonic Youth:
I'm feeling optimistic about the future no matter what happens at this point. I mean, every band runs its course. We've been together way longer than any of us ever imagined would happen and it's been for the most part an incredibly pleasurable ride. There's still a lot of stuff we're going to continue to do. There's tons and tons of archival projects and things like that that are still going on, so there are so many ways in which we are tied to each other for the future both musically and in other ways. I'm just happy right now to let the future take its course and I guess I'm kind of thankful that I've got this other project that kind of came about on its own. It wasn't kind of like, well, "Oh the band is ending for a while and I've got to figure out what to do." It kind of naturally happened in the course of things so that was a nice way for that to come about. I played my first show the day after Kim and Thurston announced [their separation.] That was completely weird.A picture of Lee Ranaldo Band from the Yo La Tengo show and setlists below...

Lee Ranaldo with Sonic Youth in August (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
Sonic Youth's Lee Ranaldo, whose solo work had previously been highly experimental and noise-driven, is currently working on his first rock-oriented solo album, with material more similar to his Sonic Youth contributions. Lee and his new band, which includes Alan Licht, Irwin Menken and Sonic Youth bandmate Steve Shelley, played their first show opening for Wild Flag at The Bell House in October. They opened their set with the song, "Angles," which Lee introduced as "kind of a love song that goes out to a couple dear friends of mine who are going through some shit right now." Maybe he was talking about these friends? Videos of Lee and band playing that song and another called "Xtina" is below.
Lee and his band will play their next NYC show performing songs from the upcoming album on December 16 at Glasslands. Tickets for the show are on sale now.
Lee is also performing as part of NY Guitar Fest at Merkin Hall with Kaki King on January 12. Tickets for that performance are still available.
Lee is also featured on David Amram's poetry album, David Amram Poetry Jam, along with Casey Cyr, Steve Dalachinsky, Albert Kausch, Rich Martin, and Ron Whitehead. The album can be purchased at CD Baby.
Lee, a photographer on the side, has also been posting pictures from Occupy Wall Street to his page on SonicYouth.com.
In related news, Thurston Moore is one of the artists scheduled for Lincoln Center's American Songbook 2012 Season and will play an acoustic set on February 2. Tickets are available as a presale, though they require a password.

Kim & Thurston in Brooklyn - 8/12/11 (more by Dana (Distortion) Yavin)
SPIN reports the unfortunate news:
If the demise of R.E.M. didn't put the final nail in the '90s alternative-rock dream, this news sure will: Sonic Youth super-couple Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore have split up after 27 years of marriage -- and the future of the band they've played in together since 1981 is unclear.Hopefully the recent Williamsburg Waterfront show wasn't the last NYC has seen of Sonic Youth.
The pair confirmed the news in a statement from their Matador Records rep that reads, "Musicians Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore, married in 1984, are announcing they have separated. Sonic Youth, with both Kim and Thurston involved, will proceed with its South American tour dates in November. Plans beyond that tour are uncertain. The couple has requested respect for their personal privacy and does not wish to issue further comment."

Kurt Vile and the Violators started the evening pretty early at Williamsburg Waterfront on Friday (8/12), taking the stage at a prompt 6:30 PM. The crowd hadn't filled in too much yet but those who did make it out early were treated to a short, but great set. Drawing almost entirely from his recently released Smoke Ring for My Halo, Kurt's shoegazey folk rock kicked off the show well and was especially fitting on the sunny waterfront with whiffs of barbecue and cigarette smoke floating through the air.
Up next was Wild Flag, who initially won me over when I saw them open for Bright Eyes earlier this year at Radio City, but their Radio City set doesn't compare at all to what they did at the waterfront on Saturday. The all-girl indie supergroup, featuring Carrie Brownstein and Janet Weiss of Sleater-Kinney, Mary Timony of Autoclave and Helium, and Rebecca Cole of The Minders, were greeted to tons of immediate applause as soon as they stepped out onto the stage. Unlike at Bright Eyes, where many people in attendance seemed unfamiliar with the group, this crowd was giving the band some serious support, and that might have encouraged them to rock even harder.
As Bill pointed out, Wild Flag's album is not out yet and hasn't even leaked, but even being only vaguely familiar with their material from live shows and various online singles, I was blown away by every song. The two frontwomen (Carrie and Mary) switched off lead vocal duties every other song and both of them ripped through killer guitar solos. I was a little more drawn to the Carrie-fronted songs because of how ferocious of a performer she is, but needless to say, Mary's were excellent as well. I feel more than confident in saying that Friday's show is not the last I will be seeing and hearing of Wild Flag.
Sonic Youth took the stage a little after 8 PM as their 5-piece incarnation of the band with Pavement's Mark Ibold, unlike last summer's NYC show at Prospect Park, when it was just the four of them. They launched right away into a handful of old material, focusing most heavily on 1985's Bad Moon Rising, and diving as far back as Confusion is Sex and the Kill Yr Idols EP. After a few more old favorites like "Kotton Krown" and "Eric's Trip," the band played a few cuts off their most recent proper LP, 2009's The Eternal. Having Mark on stage gave Kim Gordon the opportunity to put down her bass and sing. And as Kim proved when she left the constraints of a mic stand and took to the front of the stage during the pummeling "Sacred Trickster," she's an electrifying frontwoman. She carried the band as if she was solely a vocalist for their entire career.
They played material from 1983 alongside stuff from 2009, all sounding like it came from the same brilliant place. While most bands who are thirty years into their career are either fading away or living off of the nostalgia of their older material, Sonic Youth continue to sound and perform as fresh as ever. They thrash around stage with a youthful fervor that could destroy the hip-to-be-bored lo-fi scene who cite the band as an inspiration. And while you could try to argue that the similarities between their newer and older material is a negative thing, you'd be leaving out the fact that with only guitar, bass, and drums, all of it sounds like music from a time period that the rest of the world hasn't experienced yet.
Kim returned to the front of the stage around 9pm to sing "Drunken Butterfly" off 1992's Dirty. The band then left the stage after what seemed like far too short of a set. The crowd was audibly disappointmented. However, Sonic Youth quickly began making up for it when they returned for the first of three encores. Kim gave a shout out to Wild Flag and dedicated the song "Flower" to them. After leaving and returning to the stage a couple more times, the band were preparing to play their actual last song when a fan threw a ukulele to Lee Ranaldo, which he used to create the noise intro to "Inhuman." As the song progressed, Thurston Moore unplugged the bass he was playing and started making feedback with his guitar cable that he proceeded to wrap around his neck and body as he sang into the mic that he'd ripped off the stand. Mark Ibold and Steve Shelly kept what was left of the song's structure intact as Kim and Lee continued to create layers and layers of guitar noise. The band stretched the song's ending for at least twice the duration of the recorded version as Thurston kicked around stage moaning and shrieking "inhuman" and Lee swung guitars around by drumsticks lodged underneath their strings, completely stripping at least three of them. By the song's end, Thurston had uprooted the mic setup, and over a sea of fading feedback he said, "With the power of love, anything is possible," threw the mic down and walked off stage.

Thurston Moore opened for Dinosaur Jr. & Henry Rollins, playing Fallon & the 1st of 4 PS122 benefits (tonight)
Thurston at MHOW in May (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
Dinosaur Jr. brought their "Bug" tour to Calvin Theatre in Northampton, MA last night (6/21). They were supported by Northampton resident Thurston Moore who played a "Demolished Thoughts"-heavy set before Henry Rollins took the stage for a live interview of the headliners (which was followed by a set of spoken word).
A friend and casual fan texted me during the Whole Children benefit show. He said, "Henry Rollins just interviewed dino jr for 30 minutes. People are starting to get antsy." That said, afterwards I got a "show was great." Hartford Courant reports:
[Dinosaur Jr.] dispelled the awkwardness when the musicians came out to play, charging through a pair of post-"Bug" songs including "The Wagon," a wistful melody cutting through a churning blend of bass, drums and singer J Mascis' super-heated guitar.Dino's tour continues, but without Thurston. It hits NYC on Thursday (6/23) at Terminal 5 with Off!, Fucked Up (who have a new video), and another live interview by Henry Rollins. Tickets are still on sale.
Next came "Bug," the last album the original lineup of the band released before Mascis kicked out bassist Lou Barlow, leading to years of enmity before Mascis, Barlow and drummer Murph regrouped in 2005.
It sounded on "Bug" as though someone remembered belatedly to turn on the house PA system: everything was suddenly louder and crisper, with overpowering blasts of guitar pushed to the brink of feedback on "Freak Scene," the booming crack of Murph's drums on "Yeah We Know" and guitar squall worthy of an army of screeching wildcats on "Let It Ride."
On "Don't," the last song on the original version of "Bug" (the 2005 reissue included an extra track the band didn't play), Barlow invited a fan to help shriek the lyrics in his place after the bassist blew out his voice doing the song Monday night in Maine. Not only did the fan look a little like Barlow, with a big mess of curly hair, he took to the part like a Method actor, howling into the microphone and eventually shedding his shirt as the band thrashed around behind him.
Dinosaur returned after a pause for two more songs, ending with its cover of the Cure's Just Like Heaven."
Thurston doesn't appear on any of the other dates on the tour, but he does play a different type of show tonight (6/22) in NYC. The show is the first of four benefits at PS 122. He performs tonight, along with John Fleck, the TEAM, Temporary Distortion, Yoshiko Chuma, and many others. Other notable appearances include Reggie Watts (who plays Summerstage tonight) on Thursday (6/23) and Amanda Palmer (who plays Maxwell's tonight) and John Zorn on Saturday (6/25). Tickets are still available. Full PS122 Benefit lineup below.
Thurston also plays Fallon tonight (6/22) (Bon Iver played last night).
La Blogotheque recently filmed Thurston at his NYC apartment for the Take Away Shows. He played "Benediction," "Blood Never Lies" and "Circulation" off the new album and talked about getting his start in New York City, CBGB, and the like. To quote Matador, "These videos are essential viewing, complete with shots of Manhattan's streets, Thurston's reminiscences on his early days in the city and some insights into the record." Watch the videos below.
Thurston heads out on his tour with Kurt Vile soon. That tour doesn't hit NYC but Kurt is also on the bill for the Sonic Youth show at Williamsburg Waterfront with Wild Flag. Tickets for the Brooklyn show are still available. All tour dates below.
Meanwhile, Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon's daughter Coco Gorden Moore is currently fronting the Massachusetts punk band Big Nils. Their album Sibling is streaming on their bandcamp and is available for a $5 digital download. We recently heard from Coco when she performed in the band She Murders at the Kathleen Hanna tribute at Knitting Factory in December.
And as mentioned, Thurston's Sonic Youth-bandmate Steve Shelley plays this Friday (6/24) at Death By Audio with his band Spectre Folk. The bill also includes Sic Alps, Weekends, and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
All Thurston dates, PS122 lineup and videos below...
