1. New music! Go here and listen. A radio contest winner got Beck to write a song about him. The results are marvelous! You think Beck doesn’t have fun anymore? Isn’t weird enough like he used to be? Listen to that.
2. Beck’s show in San Francisco was recorded, and is being shared here. Thanks to the taper!
3. Beck’s father, David Campbell, will be conducting an orchestra at Beck’s show at the Hollywood Bowl later this month. Hopefully they’ll do more than just “Paper Tiger” and “Volcano”! I have no idea what the plans are, but should be awesome. Campbell has conducted all the strings you hear on Beck’s albums; they work quite well together.
4. For some reason I thought I had more, but that’s all I can think of right now.
thanks for the bits of news & things!
The San Fran show sounds pretty good. Just noticed he played all the songs from Modern Guilt. Is this normal with the recent club shows?
Beck is as much fun as:
A flaming piece of shit on a stick being twirled around a Cirque Du Soleil show.
Rock on Beck!!! thanks WC!!

thanks to my man Delta for flipping it
Eugene, the recent club show I saw (the El Cid one) didn’t have Profanity Prayers, but had the other 9. I guess it is a c lub thing to rock most of MoGu.
