* Michael Franti & Spearhead was recorded live at Pukkelpop on Aug. 18, 2006. Pukkelpop is an
alternative music festival staged annually near Hasselt, Belgium. I believe this show is available for purchase at the band's website: spearheadvibrations.com.
I recently had the distinct honor and privilege to experience Tinariwen & Vieux Farka Toure in concert at the Bijou Theater in Knoxville, TN. Thanks to Krystal and everyone at Epitaph/ Anti- Records for all the great music. A new album from Bob Mould via Anti- Records will be out in Feb. '08. Regards, Clyde.
