Walt Mink – Stood Up

walt mink is one of my favorites that also suffers from a lack of decent live videos. i considered playing them back on my guest DJ week, but the lack of quality material prevented me. el producto was ubiquitous during the greatest summer of my life, and should have been their breakthrough album (it even got a 10.0/10.0 from pitchfork, back when pitchfork was this little website that you'd probably never heard of). unfortunately, success stayed just around the corner, and they disbanded in 1997. in all its phasey glory, walt mink:

i also encourage you to go out and find their studio werks. best band named after a macalester professor in the business.

By Divine Right – Cupid In Oilskins

I have wanted to play this band for a long time, as they are a favorite of mine, but there is a real lack of live video from them. Furthermore the quality of live footage from them is kind of, well, bad. This video is no different.

I strongly suggest looking these guys up for studio clips, they rule.

Keith Richards & Norah Jones – Love Hurts

i was considering playing a band from boston called "the sprained ankles" that are about as awful as the route _elm_n took on that ball. instead, lets go with a song that sums up what it feels like to be a twins fan sometimes.

yup, that's keith richards making norah jones horribly uncomfortable at a gram parsons tribute concert.

The Get Up Kids – Holiday

The Get Up Kids are not from Milwaukee.  However the Promise Ring are. When looking at Promise Ring videos I thought about how they were a crappier version on the Get Up Kids.

I know it is cool to say the Get Up Kids suck but the Something to Write Home About album most definitely did not suck, at least in 2000.

Superchunk – Come Back From San Francisco

Jobu, I am not attempting to play another barrel full of monkeys covers game. I am just ripping off your idea of songs including the citiy the Twins are playing in.

After today the Twins come back from San Francisco. Well, back to Milwaukee.

Foo Fighters – Best Of You

Mags sent me a request a little while back, this is me coming through on that. His words below:

The Foo Fighters live in some dude's garage. If Dave Grohl wasn't already #1 on my list of "rock stars who seem like cool dudes and I want to hang out with", this definitely would have put him there.

Happy Birthday, buddy.
