Missing media: 3782So, the people at Beggars Group / XL Records have been nice enough to help us screen the new Sigur Ros movie: Heima. We are super excited about it and even better: it's going to be free.
Beggars is looking for students that are interested in doing some street team marketing action. If you are a fan of musicians like Thom Yorke, The White Stripes, Tapes n' Tapes, MIA, or Dizzee Rascal, drop them a line at clairetaylor{at}beggars{dot}com and you can join the illustrious Beggars Group USA Street Team and help them spread the good word in Minneapolis. XL Records is a part of the Beggars Group.

Limbeck's set was awesome last night, reminding us all why we can't help but smile at the opening of "Home (Is Where the Van Is)". They played new and old and everything inbetween. Thanks to everyone who came out to the show last night, especially Capitol Jay and The Evening Rig who kicked things off. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for these two bands; they put on great shows. We were happy to have them help us welcome back Limbeck to the U.

Also, keep your eyes open for Limbeck's new video for "Let Me Come Home". The boys gave the world premier of the video last night after the show.

Missing media: 4316School was in session with Professor Sean Daley last Thursday night. As if it were possible to endear himself more to Minneapolis, Sean played the audience some records, spilled the beans on his life and his opinions, awed the capacity crowd with live performance of yet-to-be released material, and generally left the crowd feeling giddy with all the love in the room.
Thanks to Schedule Two, we'll have sweet video clips plus lots of photos soon in the show archive. Last call for questions that weren't asked that night...submit 'em in the comments and we'll forward 'em on.
