Ataxia - Los Angeles 2004

Ataxia, live at The Knitting Factory, Los Angeles, 2nd February 2004

Ataxia consist of John Frusciante, his good friend Josh Klinghoffer (who also plays occasionally with the other musicians in RHCP), and Fugazi drummer Joe Lally. Two seems to be a fairly strong number for Ataxia, as they spent two weeks in the studio, recorded two albums in that time, and played two, count 'em, two concert dates (don't quote me on that mind!), although they did play several sets...so this isn't something you'll see everyday. Enjoy!

Electric Prunes - Hollywood 2007

Electric Prunes, live at The Knitting Factory, Hollywood, 28th December 2007

The Electric Prunes are a garage/phsycadelic rock band from way back in the '60's, one of a few who've reformed after the success of a new wave of bands playing straightforward rock music. They gained they're first taste of stardom after the release of I Had Too Much to Dream Last Night, the first song of theirs I ever heard, a track that led me to seek out more of this wonderful band. If you enjoy this bootleg, check out an earlier post of a The Sonics show I posted. Enjoy!

Something slightly different today, some pop music. Okay, some might argue that The Ting Tings are an indie band, or pop art or something, but the two members (Kate White and Jules De Martino) have been in previous bands, and in that time supported Steps and Bros.

On this occasion, Jeff Buckley and band turned out to test a few new songs, the first time they were played in public, and despite a rough voice due to smoking, something Jeff refers to continually, this is a really great show.
