American Music Club/Mark Eitzel

[KoolWhpp]

While reading through the latest news update, I came across Eitzel's tidbit that American Music Club is getting back together. Um, is this true? Will it have anything to do with Matador?

I'm just saying that I spontaneously ejaculated when I heard (or, more accurately, read) the news.




Also, where can I buy the anatomically correct My Little Eitzel?

"While reading through the latest news update, I came across Eitzel's tidbit that American Music Club is getting back together. Um, is this true?"

Are you calling Mark a liar?

"Will it have anything to do with Matador?"

Too early to say. Either we'll be putting it out or we'll see you in line at the record store.

Eitzel-r-Us.

No comment about the other statement I see.

This is the best news of the years!

AMC is not only a lousy cables movie network but the bests American band of the decades 85-95! FUCK Replacements or REM!

But... does this mean Vudi, too? Or are they recording with that Greek choir shite? (just kidding -- loved that one). And whos producting the record? Bruce Kaphan say yes! No big names, please! Except how about Richard Carpenter? Genius.

[Gerard]

...probably recording with Tom Mallon, and yes, Vudi is involved.

Not to muddy the issue or anything, but the new Mark E. solo stuff I heard (recorded with Jay Bennett) was very very good.

Oh man, Mark's not a liar, but sometimes things...uh..."fall through."




News of new solo Eitzel and possible AMC has made me very, very happy.

Man, what solo stuff has he done that *wasn't* good? 60 Watt and West might be a little weak, but still contain fine songs and performances... and his remaining solo dicks are ay-numbah-one!

Tom Mallon? Eh...

In this time of AMC reunion optimism I just thought I'd remind all that I run an AMC/Eitzel tour history & live archive site.

If anyone knows of any old dates that are not listed there or has anything interesting like old flyers/posters/photos etc I could add it would be much appreciated.

Oh, that's right, no Eitzel project has ever fallen through.

[youthere]

well the album is just about finished and the show is in less than two weeks so I think this can officially be said to have "not fallen through." even if, for some reason, the show didn't happen, the record was recorded. it's up to a record company to put it out. they will tour if it is released.

[youthere]

AMC played a whole slew of new songs and a whole bunch of old ones. And every song rocked. They're scheduling more shows now. The new album, when it gets released, should be awesome, a return to the Engine sound if last night was any indication.

wow it is too bad that matador is passing on the AMC album. I know the label and beggar's are took their chances with lots of artists over the past few years and have to play it safe financially now, but, I mean, still. I thought Gerard Cosley used to say he would always put out AMC.
