Yo, yo, yo!!!  Back again with some more great live bands here in downtown New York.  Here's the taste you get on this week's podcast:

Thursday, Feb. 22:  Check out Cock Lorge at Fat Baby.  Pornographic songs that don't take themselves seriously and with great melodies. 

Friday, Feb. 23:  The Picture plays Sin-e.  If you haven't heard, it's official that Sin-e's days are numbered, so take advantage of some great live tunes here before it's too late.

Saturday, Feb. 24:  The band I Love You Airlines at The Annex for the weekly tiswas party.  Nice pop tunes with a touch of electronic to it.

Plus, a little nugget from Seizure 17.  Don't know what you call it (grunge? punk?), but it's cool.  Check out those lyrics!  Saw them recently, and it was some good stuff.

COLTS WIN!!!!!  COLTS WIN!!!!!  Best thing ever in the history of American sports?  If you ask me... yes!  Still basking in the glow that one of my teams didn't totally choke.  So, with all the preparations for the Super Bowl and the hoopla after the Colts' big win, I got a late start on this week's show, so we're starting this one with Thursday night.  But Saturday's show is going to be a great one, so I've got a sampling from a few of the bands on that night.

Here's what we've got on the podcast this week...

Thursday, Feb. 8:  The Ready Set start the night at Sin-e.  They're worth getting there early.

Friday, Feb. 9:  The Delancey has a long list of bands, but make sure you get there to see the Statues of Liberty.  They sometimes do this guitar/bass thing that reminds me of Alice in Chains, sounds like it would be great live.

Saturday, Feb. 10:  The Mercury Lounge has an awesome line-up.  You've already heard about the Bon Savants on Shows 34 & 41.  Now check out Black Moth Super Rainbow.  They mix some electronica in their rock music for a cool and creative sound.  Then 2 great rock acts, Shade and Up The Empire.  It looks like a great night of live music.

Sorry I missed last week, folks.  Just too much going on.  But this one has some outstanding bands to make up for it.  So check out who's playing here this week...

Wednesday, Jan. 31:  The Born Ruffians hit Mercury Lounge after a couple of dates at Bowery Ballroom.  Some good pop indie rock from Toronto.  Looks like Montreal's not the only Canadian city to bring us some good music.

Thursday, Feb. 1:  The Boroughs, a great punk band from across the river in Astoria, play Pianos with The Black Angels out of Austin.  The Black Angels have a deep rock sound that reminds me of BRMC.  Really liked this song that they have for download, so I couldn't resist playing it and giving a double dose for this date.

Friday, Feb. 2:  Sin-e has The Mood.  Another nice song.  This one's fitting for this time of year.

Saturday, Feb. 3:  The Measure (SA) plays a benefit show at The Delancey.  This is some great, tight-sounding punk.
