Fangirl Overload
I hardly ever post twice in one day, but this needs to get out of my brain, through my fingers and onto my blog so I can stop saying Holy Guacamole!!!
Neil Finn announces "Seven Worlds Collide, pt. 2".
In 2001 Finn had members of Radiohead, the Smiths and Pearl Jam playing with him for a series of concerts in Auckland, New Zealand. This time around? Johnny Marr (The Smiths and, now, Modest Mouse), Phil Selway and Ed O'Brien (both Radiohead), Lisa Germano, Sebastian Steinberg (Soul Coughing) and Liam Finn (of Betchadupa, own solo career and Finn junior) join forces with four members of Wilco, Don McGlashan (of fab Kiwi legends The Mutton Birds) and, er, KT Tunstall. A record of original material with be produced by Jim Scott (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Wilco, Lucinda Williams, Foo Fighters and Johnny Cash).
And there is a NZ tour announced.
HOLY GUACAMOLE.

OMGOMGOMGOMGsqueesqueesquee!!!!!!1!
That is a line up worth mastering my tremendous fear of long flights for. My dad will be quite pleased–he just loves KT Tunstall.

And this time, I live in the right place. And this time, work for the right radio station!
And thank god I’ve always been friendly to people so they remember me in a kind way so they agree to interviews!
January will be wonderful!

Wow, that is a VERY impressive line-up. Event though I am not a Niel Finn fan, I would SO stand in line for that concert. And the first “Seven Worlds Collide” (at least the 50% of it I have heard) was great, and this looks like a competitor. Wow.

Silke, I saw you mentioning Sebastian Steinberg and I went straight to google! You rock, girl.
DK: You are a fan – admitted a reluctant one – but you’ll come around. I’ve only tried to convert you for little over a decade ;)
