Just got back from a fantastic gig at the Glee Club here in Birmingham: flamenco jazz-metallers Rodrigo y Gabriela.
Two guitars, a reasonable command of the English language and flamenco nods toward Led Zep, Deep Purple, Metallica and even the White Stripes, in amongst high energy acoustic performances that had the packed sell-out crowd on its feet.
You can make your day better just by downloading some of their music free at their website.
Grab the live tracks and play loud.
And by the way, I just heard that there was a piece on German radio about podcasting that mentioned Adam Curry… and Clayborne. So that’s pretty cool…
From a forwarded, forwarded email:
In a 4:30 min segment about German podcasters they quote a bit from Claybourne
Deutschlandfunk / Deutschlandradio is Germany’s npr
http://www.dradio.de/portale/kultur/roughly translated:
“… it is not easy to choose from the variety of podcasts out there… should it be DSC from Adam Curry [sound] would you like to subscribe to a radio drama with continuing episodes from New Zealand [sound] or just music?”no mention of the name of the show but I will put check if “Fortsetzungshörspiel aus Neuseeland” is in my german post, one might perhaps find it.”
(i noticed the reporter was involved in radio drama too and therefore mentioned it in my interview part – he took the bait.) it is not online available but I can send a file (not to be distributed).
Name of the show
Deutschlandfunk Corso, Kultur nach Drei
