Great.

Thanks Smudge.

Good work.


number none  said about 5 years ago:

Awesome. I have a lot of time for the lemonheads. Many, many great memories.


Smudge  said about 5 years ago:

J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr) plays guitar on No Backbone :) Yup No Backbone is a Smudge cover too


number none  said about 5 years ago:

Just had a listen. Very nice stuff indeed. Thought I recognised No Backbone from somewhere


thenewmeatloaf  said about 5 years ago:

Lemonheads? Who they? Never 'eard of 'em....


anonymous  said about 5 years ago:

montyclift  said about 5 years ago:

FarmlandCola  said about 5 years ago:

Cool - thanks Smudge

Now how about playing a show in Melbourne sometime?


Casias  said about 5 years ago:

fucken nice one smudge. can't wait to get onto a computer with sound and hear them.

i'm still waiting for the ben deily / jesse peretz line up to reform for me....


glebepointbridge  said about 5 years ago:

I heard they were gonna get Dave Keyes to play bass but they couldn't because they haven't had Nigel yet.


albert....  said about 5 years ago:

Hey, when go to this website nothing seems to be happening. Evan Dando is just sitting on a car. He's probably wired too. Anyway, there's certainly no music. And most certainly no new Lemonheads music.


raincoat  said about 5 years ago:

ive rediscovered confetti this week

if only i could find my old rage video with all their clips. evan heaven!


KJ  said about 5 years ago:

I thought this album was supposed to revert back to ev's punkier days...sure these tracks are a bit heavier than his solo stuff but that's not hard. evan's still got it though. TEAM DANDO!!

Interferon  said about 5 years ago:

Apparently they're friends of Alan Hislop.


Bugsy.  said about 5 years ago:

is this the stuff he recorded with the descendants?


albert....  said about 5 years ago:

Where the fuck are these songs?

I dunno, I heard that Nigel was batting for the other team....


Casias  said about 5 years ago:

raincoat: track down a copy of the 2 weeks in australia video, that has heaps of clips, very sexy.

KJ: long live TEAM DANDO! maybe the unheard tracks will sound more like ye olde days.

yep, ''Lick - The Australian Lemonheads Show'' is an in-joke that started on their first tour here in '91. Evan with Morgz on bass and the Daltz on drums.


thenewmeatloaf  said about 1 year ago:

playing mostly stuff from the first album.


monoceros  said about 1 year ago:

Everyone was on fire last night. As much as I hate the espy. Lemonheads played for nearly 2 hours.

This really makes me bitter about going to Corner and missing the Espy show. I had a good time on Thurs and was happy to write off the short/moody set as 'typical Dando' but he is obviously capable of more and just couldn't be fucked sometimes. Oh well, hopefully he'll be in a decent mood at NSC.


soula  said about 1 year ago:

Thanks meaty. I guess we had 2 out of 3. I remember they did beat of a different drum and luka back in 2001. Messy and total fun. Incredible to see tom and Evan on stage together, they look like a couple of kids mucking around.

Bummer for those who went to Thursday gig. Evan did apologise.


slothman  said about 1 year ago:

aw shucks. i still enjoyed it though


OAAD  said about 1 year ago:

Does sound like Ev and co shafted us Corner attendees... but as with slothman, I can't bitch too much in that he delivered what was advertised: the album in full...


monkeyman  said about 1 year ago:

Tonights solo show at NSC was fantastic.

Evan sang his heart out, and Spencer joined him at the end for a cover of 'Another Girl, Another Planet'.

He does seem a bit sad and down at the moment though, and he looked a bit rougher than a few years ago too.


loveparade  said about 1 year ago:

he still looks 27!


monoceros  said about 1 year ago:

Last night as ok. Evan looked pretty disinterested. 'Ride With Me' was nice. The encore with Spencer was easily the highlight. Evan looked like he was actually enjoying himself for a few minutes there.


OAAD  said about 1 year ago:

In the end, It's a Shame About Ray is still a brilliant listen


jimmy hutspah  said about 1 year ago:

anyone (meaty?) know where i can get a copy of lemonheads dvd - 2 weeks in australia?


goingblank  said about 1 year ago:

Pretty sure it comes with the reissue of ...Ray.


wrongheaded  said about 1 year ago:

ill sell you my vhs copy for like ten bucks dude


jimmy hutspah  said about 1 year ago:

Wanna try get on DVD thanks w/h, no VHS playback options these days. Will try the reissue option, cheers..


monkeyman  said about 1 year ago:

Yeah I'm sure the DVD is on the Deluxe edition of 'Ray'


Kit  said about 1 year ago:

pretty sure the DVD is still incomplete, ie doesn't have any of the Ben Lee stuff


monkeyman  said about 1 year ago:

That's a bonus and can only make it more watchable if Ben Lee is cut out isn't it?


Kit  said about 1 year ago:

it was a pretty relevant part of the doco iirc but w'evs


goingblank  said about 7 months ago:

Someone was selling a bunch of master tapes from the Come on Feel... sessions on Ebay the other week.


books  said about 7 months ago:

wish we'd get some new stuff from evan. that covers album didn't really count and it was ages ago anyway. great LONG show at the espy last year.
