News of the TPE World November 5th, 2004

Song in my head:
"Say Fear Is Man's Best Friend" by Channels

Saw Sparta last night. After seeing them play on late night TV over the years, this was my first time to see them in person. Great set, especially with "From Now to Never," "Air" and "Breaking the Broken."

If you're going to see the Incredibles this weekend, chances are good you will see a trailer for this movie.

Don't have any major plans for the weekend. Do have some plans already: I want to hit up some record stores and have pizza one night. Everything else is subject to change.

For me, they were one of most consistent rock bands of the ’90s, meandering through shoegazer, hard rock, space rock and pop rock, all while eluding mainstream pigeonholing. Led by the smooth, warm pipes of vocalist/guitarist Rob Dickinson (cousin of Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson), Catherine Wheel featured Brian Futter on lead guitar, Dave Hawes on bass and Neil Sims on drums. They weren’t a pretty-boy guitar band, but they weren’t a scuzzy bunch of ragamuffins either. Though the band hailed from England, Catherine Wheel found itself more welcome on American air...
