Goodbye, Rick

As you may of heard, it was announced that tonight was Rick's last show with Brother. I wanted to share this image I took as he left the stage tonight. I'll have more later.

Goodbye Rick.

Video file from the Coach House

Brother fan Lisa has done it again. She's shared a video file that she took from the recent show at the Coach House into the files section of the Brother2 Yahoo Group. It's a long one, showing a good portion of "Death of Me". Thanks Lisa!

Reviews and Pictures

Oh, yes, by the way, I am planning to write up my usual reviews, and I did take a ton of pictures last weekend. However, I am crazy busy for the next 2 weeks, so it might be a bit longer than I'd like. In the meantime, check out the Brother2 Yahoo Group. Chat up the PA and other fans who were there, they are sure to have some details if you're wanting.

road diaries from Hamish and T, and other updates

Some very interesting road diaries popped up on the BROTHERmusic.com road diary page tonight. First, a bit from Hamish, about the completion of the new album, the trip down to Florida at Skipper's and Disney, and those first shows with the new material, how it changed and grew. Then a small bit from T, about the Milwaukee shows, the the great time he had on the Milwaukee leg of this trip.

Hamish says, "This tour may never end." Yay!

A-ha! more updates I've just discovered. The news page has a picture from the first Musikfest show, and there's also been an update to Brother's Circle of Friends.

Show tomorrow night in Woodstock, NY

Get yourselves on the Brother mailing list, everyone! They've sent an email today about a "BROTHER-only exclusive..." (since the club isn't usually open on Mondays) show in Woodstock, NY, at Legends of Woodstock tomorrow night. Wish I could go!

Pictures on the Musikfest site

Also, the photographer was at the Musikfest show last night, and there are a few pictures from it posted here. They did tape it for the local channel last night, if anyone gets word when it is being shown, or gets a copy, please let me know. Perhaps we can do some trading.

Edited 8-9-03 to add: I've found the information! Wednesday, August 13th at 9:30 pm: Musikfest 2003: Brother, found here, on channel 2's schedule. I don't get this channel, so again, contact me if you can record it. I'd love to see it!

Review of Gunther-Murphy's show

A link to an awesome review popped up on the BROTHERmusic.com site tonight, on the news page here. The reviewer says in the article that seeing Brother live gives you an "entirely different perspective" on music. I tend to agree. See some of you all at Musikfest, later TODAY!
