The Bay Bridged: MP3 Pod Cast w/ 20 Minute Loop

20 Minute Loop rules. They played like 30 songs at The Starry Plow in Oakland this night… and I took like a million bad pictures… This is one of my favorite bands in San Francisco. Listen to the MP3 above to here some songs off the newest release and some band chitchat. You can check out some more samples here. Everyone of their records is good.

My friend Stephen was badgering me about post-rock and instrumental bands… well, not badgering, but as recently I have been very worn out on “post-rock”, I felt badgered. Stephen rules BTW, bless his heart. I think it all started at SXSW… which was more fun than I thought it would be but underwhelming in the amount of good music and performances I was able to see and hear, but well save that rant for another post. Anyways we stayed up late after a looong day to see fellow post-rockers Caspian from Boston. We had played with them a few times and we generally regard them as being a very good band, very much the poster-children of independent instrumental post-rock. Good guys… good musicians, bless their hearts.
