    Sparklehorseplay Page 1 of 6 Sparklehorse Spring 1999 tour diary part 1 The South Rises Again? This tour diary is entirely the fault of one musician, and is not sanctioned by Sparklehorse Inc. You may believe that the characters are fictitious if you like.... Well, it all starts with a show in San Francisco, Victor Krummenacher and Alison Faith Levy at the Hotel Utah March 6th 1999. I played a couple songs with Alison and then the whole set with Victor, we got back to Victor's at about 3am, so I dozed in a chair 'til 5 when the shuttle came to pick me up to take me to the airport. a short layover in chicago, many people stranded by the weather there, but i got safely to Richmond, VA. where eventually i got picked up by Scott Minor and Mark Linkous in Mark's old diesel Mercedes wagon. out to the farm in Dillwyn to rehearse. on th eway we pick up a new instrument for Mark, a nylon string guitar that he is having a pickup put into. Already at the farm is David Dreiwitz, our new bass player. I met Dave originally may years ago when i was playing with Camper Van Beethoven and he was playing with Tiny Lights, but recently re - met him while doing shows in NY last fall with John Kruth. Dave also plays with Ween. So the band is Mark on guitar and singing and other weird sounds, Scott on drums and sampler, Dave on electric and acoustic bass, me (Jonathan) on guitar, violin, keyboards and glockenspiel, with both Dave and I singing background vocals.

  • This Year, You WILL

It’s another article about another festival coming to another venue in the Netherlands. You think you know what you’re going to do: read the article, maybe skim it for famous names, bands you recognise, authors you’ve read. Then you’re going to move on to the next feature in the magazine, completely forgetting to mark your agenda, or book tickets, or entice your friends out for a cultural adventure. Then, in December, you’re going to kick yourself when someone says: ‘Did you see Wesley Stace/Cassandra Wilson/Jhelisa Anderson/ Will Self/John Langford/Stuart A.

  • Eitzel Interview – Idler 41 May08
    Music B E A U T I F U L A N D A N A R C H I C A N D C R A Z Y A N D G R E AT Idler literary editor Tony White interviews Mark Eitzel of American Music Club Mark eitzel has been making records and performing with American Music Club since the mid-1980s. The string of albums that have seen him called “America’s Greatest Living Lyricist” include California, Everclear and this year’s Golden Age. Start anywhere you want and you’ll find plaintive, witty songs that have been bracketed as alt.country, americana, and indie, amongst other things, but which exceed attempts at categorisa- tion. What there is is a cussed and contrary artistic streak and an illuminat- ing honesty and insight into human dramas — from the out-and-out elegaic (as in Everclear’s ‘Why Won’t You Stay’) to, say, a moment of fragile optimism occasioned by a visit to a bookshop. Eitzel also brings an almost willful “outsiderness” to his music and performances — on stage at a packed Kilburn Luminaire he half-jokes, “I’m not like you!” We meet at the Soho landmark Maison Bertaux, and repair to a quieter corner, chatting randomly en route about my new digital recorder, the UK’s “Underage” movement that in the past year or so has seen gigs and festivals put on by teenagers for teenagers, and Eitzel’s own first attempt-at-a-band — a bunch of prog-rock inspired school friends in Southampton, UK, in the mid-1970s who called themselves Instant Bucephalus (or maybe he was winding me up).
