Yearly Archives: 2004

A few hours before Grey Tuesday. When playing with your style sheets, these things take time.

Expect more info on Grey Tuesday, along with relevant links, sometime tonight.

We’ll be going Grey on Tuesday, although we can’t host any mp3s (we’re already having bandwidth issues). For more details on the battle for this album, and why it’s wrong, go here.

PS: You can still download the entire album here.

Today marks the release of the debut album for Chicago power-rockers Light FM. The boys are friends of Done Waiting and even helped anchor the Chicago date of the first Field Studies Tour so we thought you should know that their new album is awesome. I’d say it was better than the last Wilco disc but then I would have to out-run the fists of fury belonging to one Robert Duffy Jr. So I’ll just say it’s pretty damn good.

A full review of the disc is here.
Info regarding their CD release show tonight in Chicago is here.
A picture of my beagle is .

That is all.

In the “Bands-That-You-Don’t-Know-But-Know-You-Should” category, falls, for me, a band called TV on the Radio.

Somewhere, I read their sound described as:

The crossbred vocals of Peter Gabriel and Ozzy Osbourne fronting a pissed-off Beta Band.

Sounds cool to me. And they’re sexy-looking, too.

Their new Touch and Go LP, “Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes” is set for release on March 9.

Check their site for a big ol’ list of tourdates. In the Ohio neck of the woods, they’ll be stopping for a night in Cleveland with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I think I’ll check them out this coming Monday, the 23rd, here in NYC.

Check out this blog, too. Funny, fantastical, clever stuff about religion, politics, rock n roll, deer pants, gorillas, and human nature.

From the Beastie Boys themselves:

“I know, you’re like “what’s up fool? where’s the record!!??!!?………” well, we are in the studio finishing it now, so ease up already and don’t call me fool, fool. we’re putting the final touches on the mixes right now and it will be out beginning of june. so we’ll be seeing you in a hot new york minute…… until then cool your jets, step back, relax and ease off the throttle. the shit’s on it’s way, no delay….. and always remember when things get hot — it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity…….”

Have had more success compared to the much more expensive products that my doctor wanted me to take. I am very happy with the results. ! We would strongly recommend you to consult your doctor before taking a medication.

My birthday’s in June…do you think they’ll dedicate the album to me?

Rumors being circulated about Lolla 2004. This discussion mentions Pixes, Nine Inch Nails, Libertines.

Here’s my prediction: ticket prices too high, mediocre line-up, and at least 2 shows cancelled.

And the people begin to fight back:

“They’re banding together to extort money, telling people they’re guilty and they will have to pay big bucks to defend their cases if they don’t pony up now. It is fundamentally not fair,” Scimeca’s lawyer, Bart Lombardo, said yesterday. (full story)

NJ always representing.

It’s time to cut the birthday cake and pin the tail on the donkey, friends. Oh yes oh yes, donewaiting.com has survived one year on the internet with only a few bruises and scraped elbows.

Our adult teeth are starting to grow in, and we’ve just started to mumble our first words. Surprisingly enough, the first words uttered by the one year old infant website was “mp3” and “Tweedy.” Go figure.

So, what happened in a year?

Thanks to Urge Overkill and oh, ha ha ha Tenacious D for good times in Chicago. We signed a three album deal with the Scratchie/New Line record company for most of the world except the UK and Australia, where we make our records for Sweet Nothing and Shock respectively. The new full length record should be out July-ish. (official site)
