Clark 8: Demonstrable Negligence

March 31st, 2006

Hey, I think this almost counts as a demo, but the songs are maybe a minute too long each. Just skip ahead to the good parts… if there are any.
Demonstrable Negligence (three mp3s in a zip file ~ 10 MB, right click to save)
Check the Clark 8 site for the track listing but [...]


Darkmatter sound system show

March 30th, 2006

This should be a good time this Saturday April 1st:

What my friends are saying “I have never had less of a desire to go to a show than the one you mention.” Yes!!!


100 guitars recap

March 30th, 2006

Walt Disney Concert Hall + $10 tickets = good time. In terms of well known folk, Page Hamilton and Mike Watt were on stage. The drummer, mentioned in the previous post, was amazing. He just drilled it and then drilled it some more. One of my friends who was with me [...]


(sound) terror attack

March 29th, 2006

I’m getting overly excited about seeing Glenn Branca’s Symphony #13 ‘Hallucination City‘ (for 100 guitars) tonight at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. I have a Theoretical Girls CD (meh… conceptually good) and Symphony #6 ‘Devil Choirs at the Gates of Heaven’… I think that recording is simply amazing. I’m going to bring earplugs [...]


Radio unradio

March 27th, 2006

So, the Mighty Morning Show is definitely gone, see the press release here. In other news, saw the band the Epsilons last night and another band whose name escapes me who had one song that was almost too good. “Candy man” I think it was called, but not a cover. (Edit: Sugar [...]


No ‘Pictures To Prove It’ yet, but Dicky’s gone!

March 23rd, 2006

Man, radio in LA sucks. Basically this is a given. Sure, KDAY is back and that’s cool. There are some good college stations, but the transmission is short and well, they just play CMJ tracks. Indie 103.1 is a reformed ‘modern rock’ format station with the added bonus of some celeb [...]

My New Baby the Eastwood Ichiban

Originally uploaded by Rich Seymour.

So, yeah, here is a picture of this beautiful guitar. You’ll note that if you look at the new and improved Eastwood Guitars website that the knobs look a little different on this than on the ones [...]


Musical Interlude 3

March 16th, 2006

Yeah, another track up at clark8.com, check it out. A lot of people who have heard the solo acoustic version of the new song dig the acoustic version, but this version may blow your mind in a sort of overprocessed overcompressed sort of way. Plus I start ripping my vocal chords at the [...]


So many shows in 7 days.

March 15th, 2006

It all started innocently enough, with my friend Tim asking me to join him to go see Animal Collective. This happened. PJ Harvey was in the audience, she stood right next to us. Along with a person who works at Built By Wendy’s LA store (I think). In spite of my [...]


Musical Interlude 2 (Clark 8)

March 1st, 2006

So, yeah writing, making, recording and mixing music almost takes all of the fun out of it by the time its over, but hopefully at the end you have something someone can dig on. Some folks who have heard this track have liked it, so maybe you will too:
I changed the link here to [...]
