Music Links A'plenty
Got hit by an absurd (in a good way) amount of links to music on the web this weekend. I mean, wow.
Here's a rundown.
Didn't know about the locally-written music blog Music Sucks, but Joe Williams of the co-op site was kind enough to send a top-10 local show list, which lead me to the wider site. It's here:

Bill Streeter was at the Fishbone show, along with a pair of additional cameramen. The results of all that shooting are available here:

Local songwriter Geoff Kessell (ol' schoolers will remember him as the co-owner of the wonderful Whiz Bam!, as well) has entered the web world, with some tracks on his Myspace page:

Joe Thebeau of Finns Motel noted that a few videos from his old band, The Finns, along with one track by my fave band from back in the day, The Treeweasels, all were produced/directed by Scott Roever. The first two below are the Finns cuts, the third is by the 'Weasels.

And while it's not music, per se, former STL bandleader TV guy Patrick Clark sends along a bit of web improv, which sees PC in cameo form:
