radiatorhums Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 If someone could please pick this up for me, I'll pay you accordingly! I'm seeing them on the 12th of March but feel like it'll be gone by then. Seeing them on Tuesday. If you (or anyone else) still needs a novel, let me know and I'll do my best.

icecream Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Did you by chance see if it was selling a lot? Brian Cook's one of my favorite musicians so I'm just really intrigued, haha. I haven't had a chance to read it yet so I can't give any kind of synapsis however the printing is limited to 200. The description at the table was something like "read this book is you like reading about drunk people in the woods" Of course I had to buy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drds89 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 On twitter, Cathy asked Brian to hold some copies back for people who couldn't make it to shows, so (if) he obeyed, they should show up on Hello Merch at some point, maybe. Also per twitter,(aren't I the little news dropper?) Brian's very young niece picked up the book to read - and read the first sentence out loud - to which her father quickly removed the book from her, and tweeted to Uncle Brian - "nice." So, gathering it's not for tender ears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Saw them last night and the show was a lot of fun. Not the best time I've seen them, but they were still really good. KEN mode and Helms Alee were great and well worth showing up early for. RC only had red copies of Empros for sale. I overheard the merch guy saying something along the lines of them being out of every other LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinyl Fury Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Not many bands sound better on stage than on record, but Russian Circles do. Tonight's show was on point. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have sold out and restocked on another title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Anyone in the Northern California area want a free ticket and lift to the San Fran show tomorrow? VC road trip? It could be fun. drds89, Neanderthal and deletedunknown 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davepriz Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Bought Brian Cook's book at the portland show on Wednesday and am about halfway through now. I honestly haven't read a book in about 10 years so I'm not the best critic but for the record I am thoroughly enjoying this novel. There are a ton of grammatical errors but his way of capturing the subtleties of life is impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 Is the speaker of the narrative one of the characters? EDIT: Wait. Maybe I should have said "Is the narrator one of the characters?" Sorry. I'm retarded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with me though, feels so long since I actually finished a book I opened. Think Watchmen was the last one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm normally a pretty big reader, but I've been super busy this year and haven't really put a dent in any book. I'm going to try and power through what I'm reading now and then start on Cook's book. I'll report back with thoughts when I'm done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abovetheearth Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Seeing these guys Saturday night. so the merch table wont really have much? anybody want me to look for something for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neanderthal Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Last night was incredible. Helms Alee is amazing live, really good chemistry with that band. They are all super chill and nice as well. Ben was so nice it's almost as if he knew me or something. This Will Destroy You was pretty good too. RC definitely ripped it though. Was up front and center and totally worth the 5 hour drive. They jammed after 309 for a good 5 minutes too, which was unexpectedly awesome. Merch table had a good amount of things to chose from. Mostly shirts.
