Hey guys
As of today it is summer. a gorgeous 80 degrees. Perfect weather to sit on your porch and guitar it up on a unplugged Les Paul.
Now down to business
The Mars Volta:.
2 words.... Thomas Pridgen
This guys is a messianistic drum prodigy and he has taken over the kit. Based on reviews of the New Zealand concert, this band has been completely revitalized by this new addition, especially after countless bad reviews. I will try to upload any bootlegs I find of the new Volta
My predictions for the Volta-
A. I can guarantee the new album is going to be stunning
B. There live shows will be breathtaking
C. Omar's guitar chops will continue to become sharpened and more melodic
D. The band will continue to do what they want

In addition, I will have 2 Ataxia records soon, which if you don't know, they are the band John Frusciante formed with some guy and some other guy from Fugazi. I'll be sure to tell you all about it when I finally get them. I really don't know what to expect cuz its pretty indie...
*note, there will be no Radiohead on here, because I'm sure you've heard of them
Stay classy, stay sassy, I love New York
