does ‘stop complaining’ rhyme with skowhegan?

December 4, 2008

Further digging by the PhD candidates at Mastermind Labs has turned up the following information.

“Grace Potter and the Nocturnals to release six song EP recorded live at the Skowhegan Opera House in Skowhegan, ME on 6/27/08″.

skow

Release Date: 12/23/08
——————————–
1) Ragged Company
2) Stop The Bus
3) Apologies
4) Ah Mary
5) Can’t See Through
6) Sugar

Save your holiday dollars for this iTunes only release. FYI, the “complainer” (person asking constantly for information) was me. So seriously, thanks to Nate for letting me announce this.

Interesting cover art – do we know who did it?

Happy Birthday Jan! Can’t wait!

WOW – that is so cool – the cover art looks like it was taken right from the murals on the walls of the Opera House.

I LOVE IT – Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas – ooohhh Gary – guess what I want for Christmas!!

I’m gonna complain just a little – there was an incredible version of Over Again that would have been very cool to have on this EP. On the flip side, have to be happy that Can’t See Through is on there.

Over Again will go on the new CD released in 2009. Now my complaint. Why such a late X-mas release date? I could have put that baby in a lot of stockings.

That was such a great show.

Am also glad “Can’t See Through” is included. . . would be interesting to know how the songs were selected for this mini-set.

Why such a late X-mas release date?
Aimed at those who practice the art of procrastination . . . :D

I’d be more excited if it wasn’t iTunes-only, but I’m happy for any GPN release :)

10 Saygracenow December 5, 2008 at 8:47 am

Available as digital downloads only exclusively at I-Tunes. OK- now I understand.

11 joester December 5, 2008 at 9:03 am

how does a downloading-challenged person like myself get this?
never done an Itunes, and don’t have an ipod. Can this be saved as mp3 files on my computer?
you can see how little I know about this stuff…..
I would love to hear this as a crispy recording!

I am happy that there is new live material from one of my favorite bands. But I still enjoy the classic release on CD. Those lossy mp3′s just don’t satisfy my collector’s needs for material possessions…
Anyhow, every new release is more than welcome!

Damn…I was gonna go to Michaels and watch him try to stuff some stockings!!

Great show that was and can’t wait for I-Tunes . A great Posse Party.

16 Vtshome December 5, 2008 at 4:06 pm

Yes Joester they can be loaded on the computer using ipod software. it’s not a biggy…I did it so you can.

I’m thinking Michael is planning on getting us some of those mini notebooks Van and downing loading the songs. I’ll take mine in maroon Michael…you are the best.

I believe I listened to that particular show live via this website and then promptly burned the entire show from archive.org.

18 Nate December 10, 2008 at 10:06 pm

The cover art was done by Grace, using a photo of the mural on the wall of the opera house.
