(Photo by Juror8 ) I’ve been listening to your last couple of albums this week, particularly the most recent release Stay Positive , and even three or four listens in, I feel I’ve only begun to scratch the surface of the songs. There’s a lot for listeners to get their teeth into, isn’t there? Yeah, the idea is that hopefully on someone’s 75th listen, they get something that they didn’t get out of the...
"I don't really sing," said Finn with a laugh. "It's pretty much just me talking amplified. I want it to be conversational. It's sort of like creating this idea of a guy talking or yelling in your ear at a club."
If only the streets of New York really could be decorated with videos of a singing and dancing CraigFinn and Franz's mustache... STAY POSITIVE - The Hold Steady
... week I've had the pleasure of consuming way too much whiskey while pumping my fist in the air to CraigFinn and his Brooklyn brothers -- if they're not on tour next fall, I fully expect them to come play at my house -- and the third time in two months I've seen DBT do their Southern thing.

It was the second of two nights in Manhattan on the “Rock and Roll Means Well” tour, the Hold Steady’s fall road [...]
TOMMY, CAN YOU FEEL ME: The Hold Steady, Electric Factory, Saturday Night 1. Knowing that they had the shorter of the two sets tonight, CraigFinn and the gang made sure to fit in all of the staples. For the Hold Steady, that means fitting in horse races, Kerouac references, and dealing with dealers—all in [...]
