MGM vs. Grokster went before the supreme court yesterday. This is possibly the biggest entertainment case to go before the court since the landmark Betamax case in 1984, which ensured that VCRs remained legal to sell and own in the U.S. (more…)

We’re poised to return to Chicago’s Red Line Tap tomorrow (Friday) evening. The Red Line has become one of our favorite places to play. The sound is good, and the audiences have been wonderful.
We’re playing with Emilia Dahlin and Pluck Daddies. You can find out more about Emilia on her web site: www.emiliadahlin.com.
Music starts at 9.
See you soon,
Kip
Thanks to all the folks who came out to see us at Uncommon Ground over the weekend. We had a great time playing there with Kate McDonnell, Eric Jackson, and Mark Lonsway. We’ve been playing big rooms lately, so it was great for us to get a chance to set up and play acoustically for a change.
We used a simple set up for the show: a pair of cheapo Octavia MK-12 condensers stage left and stage right, and then two Shure 32 condensers up the middle. Rich, the sound guy, made a CD of the show. We’ll try to make a couple tracks available soon via the our mailing list.
We’ve been working some new material into the set, and some of it is really starting to come together. We’ve been playing the old-timey fiddle tune ‘Listen to the Mockingbird’ pretty regularly, and Billy is really starting to cook on it.
