Monday’s Hors d’Oeuvres & Weekend Setlists
Neil Young on Friday continued a tradition he started in 1969, when he played material from his new album for about 100 people at his record label in Burbank. Young has recorded 10 songs for a new album entitled Chrome Dreams II. Word from the meeting is that two of the songs are monsters that clock in at over 10 minutes each. Look for Reprise to announce a release date for it soon…

Saw the Keller/Ratdog/Allmans show at the Tweeter on Friday. It was just this side of Heaven.
Nice, Sisto…your wordy review leaves me wanting no more.
Here’s a piece of good news — Flight of the Conchords has been picked up for a second season:

That is delightful news, but Ace, you can’t just go emailing my fans asking for man-man-woman threesomes.
All you hermaphrodite lady-man-ladies…with your sexy lady bits and your sexy man bits too…even you must be into you.
