 My Way My Love
For those of you who don't know who they are, they are a band that used to appear on Sawao's Delicious Label. They now are signed to a small Chicago based label. Anyway, musically speaking they are pretty hard core. A really hard alternative rock sort of thing. They are pretty good.
Okay doky, big show tonight right here in St. Paul MN at the Turf Club. I will be there. I will let you know how the show is.
I will be rocking. 
Edit: Did I mention the cover is only 5 bucks? Now that's a bargain.

Re: My Way My Love
There is one word that comes to mind when I think about last night, WOW! I honestly don't know what else to say.
I take that back. Actually there is a lot to say. However, it's 9 am here, I just woke up and I was up last night until 3:30 in the morning. Do not ask me why I am up all ready 'cause I couldn't tell you. I just woke up for some odd reason and now my mind is mush. I will tell you guys all about it later, if you are interested. If not, I'll tell you about it anyway. My Way, My Message Board.
Once again I just have to say, WOW!

Re: My Way My Love
Here's what I just wrote over at Terra's board. I will copy and paste here rather than writing it up again.
By the way, **** the typos, I am too tired to care.
Well I went and saw them last night. OMG!!!!!!! Craziness at it's best.
First off there were four bands that played at The Turf Club last night, most of which weren't anything to write home about. Anyway apparently MYML was supposed to go on first, however they got caught in a snow storm in Milwaukee (?spelling?) and were two hours late getting to Saint Paul, so they got to perform last. We didn't get there until about 10:30 because for some odd reason, I thought they would be the last ones to go on anyway so that was pretty lucky for me. Actually, they were hauling in there equipment when we got there. Long story short before they went on, I met their manager, Bojan. We talked for quite some time and he told me all kinds of interesting little tid bits. Nice guy he is. It's pretty cool how he became their manager. Anyway, these guys were so tired after being on tour for 4 or 5 days strait and getting caught in a snowstorm, that thier drummer fell asleep sitting at the CD table and their bass player litterally sat down in a corner at the back of the bar and fell asleep. Poor little guy, he just looked so exausted. Yukio, their lead singer, is just the nicest, sweetest most polite person I've ever met. At one point when I came out of the bathroom, he was coming down the tiny littel hall that led to the restrooms and he backed up like five feet, smiled at me and gestured for me to go by and said "Hello". So polite! But when he is on stage, he is an absolute lunatic! Which brings me too:
Their performance. Okay. like I said, they were SUPPOSE to go on first but because they were late, they got to go on last. Therefore the majority of the people there, came to see the band that went on before them. Needless to say when this band played, it was pretty pakced in front of the stage. Anway, after this band was finished some people left, (stupid, stupid people) and everyone cleared out of the front stage area. Then when MYML came on, there were maybe five people standing in front of the stage watching them. Well all of the sudden, while MYML was playing, people started to migrate up to the stage front because they were so good. Little by little, the crowd in front of the stage got bigger and bigger untill it was pretty damn crowded up there. Then Yukio just lost his mind. He started flailing him self about, flinging himself over the drum set, Flung himself into the crowd, ran off stage, ran around after he threw his guitar on the stage, came back on stage picked up his guitar, started playing again, flung himself over the drums set again, flung him self into the crowd again, only this time the crowd was ready so they caught him and started bouncing him up and down, got back on stage screamed, sang and played some more and did it amazingly. I think he flung him self over the drum set three times total. The first time they had to get a tech on stage to fix some problem that he caused. Then of course when the whole thing was over, their drummer flung himself into the crowd as well. All this entertainment and a musical performance that was even more amazing than the antics. After they were done, I shook Yukio's hand and told him how amazing I thought they were and smiling in a very sweet and unassuming manner, he shyly said, "Oh thank you, I'm happy you enjoyed the show. Arigatou." Night and day, let me tell you.
Anyway, please go see these guys if you can, they are absolutley amazing live. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Re: My Way My Love
Just for the record, I have heard about some friction between MYML and The Pillows but I really do not want to get into it here at Swanky Street. As far as I'm coincerned, it's really none of our business.
With that said, check these guys out and go see them if you can. They put on one hell of a show.

Re: My Way My Love
Ah, I would have done that, but someone who shall remain nameless (thanks kelp!) sent me the tracks already. Maybe I'll order something older.
