About The Show
Seether to Preview Material from their New Studio Album to be Released Summer 2010

After selling over three million albums in the U.S. alone and two #1 hit singles Wind-up Recording artist Seether (Shaun Morgan, Dale Stewart, John Humphrey, Troy McLawhorn) will hit the road this spring. After touring in arenas across the country with the likes of Audioslave, Nickelback, Three Days Grace, Staind and others, Seether will be headlining a handful of arena dates of their own in addition to various festivals this spring including Rock on the Range with Godsmack, Rob Zombie, and more. The band will head out on the road April 29 and will tour through early June hitting a bunch of cities across the U.S. including Detroit, Madison, Atlanta, Kansas City and Columbus. Seether will be performing fan favorites from their three studio albums Disclaimer, Karma & Effect and Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces. Seether will also be previewing material from their upcoming fourth album which is scheduled to be released later this summer.

The South African band, Seether, debuted on the scene in 2002 with the release of Disclaimer. Released on Wind-up Records, the album went on to sell over 500,000 copies and was certified gold by the RIAA. The band saw great success with their debut release and put out a reworked version of the album which included a DVD and bonus tracks. Aptly titled, Disclaimer II, the album went on to sell over 600,000 copies when a new rendition of the track "Broken" - which featured guest vocals by Amy Lee of Evanescence - became a Top 20 hit. In 2005, Seether released Karma & Effect. The album debuted at #8 on Billboard's Top 200 chart. The band returned in 2007 with the release of Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces. Produced by Howard Benson, the album debuted at #9 and produced a handful of hit singles including "Fake It" which went to #1 on the US Mainstream Rock charts and Modern Rock charts. To date, Seether has sold over 5 million albums worldwide. The band is currently writing and recording music with Grammy winning Producer of the Year, Brendan O'Brien, for their fourth album to be released summer 2010.

Go Cats!



The UK womens Basketball team move on to the Regional Finals After defeating Nebraska, 76-67.  Nebraska had the size and experience.  The Huskers even had the crowd, playing only a 3-hour drive from their campus. However the speed and athletic ability belonged to Kentucky, and that was all the Wildcats needed to end Nebraska's record-breaking season with a 76-67 victory Sunday night in the Kansas City Regional.

A'dia Mathies led the underdog Lady Cats scoring 21 points, that along with swarming pressure defense befuddled the top-seeded Huskers all night, propelling the Wildcats into the regional finals against Oklahoma, Tuesday night.

"I thought the pace of the game was where we wanted it and it was a big advantage for us," Kentucky coach Matthew Mitchell said.

Kentucky (28-7), extending its school-record win total, opened the second half on an 11-1 run and led by as many as 19 points over the Big 12 champion Huskers, who saw an abrupt end to the most successful season in the history of their own program.

Several thousand red-clad Nebraska fans tried to help fuel a late rally by the Huskers (32-2) when Lindsey Moore's 3-pointer cut the lead to 68-56 with 3:52 to go. But the Wildcats, picked 11th in the Southeastern Conference preseason poll, held on to make their first regional final.

I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' about half past dead;
I just need some place where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.

(Chorus:)
Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fannie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me.

I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around."

(Chorus)

Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day.
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son, woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee
company?"

(Chorus)

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog.
He said, "I will fix your rags, if you'll take Jack, my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can."

(Chorus)

Catch a Cannonball, now, t'take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time.
To get back to Miss Annie, you know she's the only one.
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.

(Chorus)

Ophelia Lyrics, video at bottom

Boards on the window
Mail by the door
What would anybody leave so quickly for?
Ophelia
Where have you gone?

The old neighborhood just ain't the same
Nobody knows just what became of
Ophelia
Tell me, what went wrong

Was it somethin' that somebody said?
Mama, I know we broke the rules
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey, you know I'd die for you

Ashes of laughter
The ghost is clear
Why do the best things always disappear
Like Ophelia
Please darken my door

Was it somethin' that somebody said?
Honey, you know we broke the rules
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey, you know I'd die for you

They got your number
Scared and runnin'
But I'm still waitin' for the second comin'
Of Ophelia
Come back home

Jakob Dylan and Three Legs Featuring Neko Case and Kelly Hogan

Tour dates are in conjunction with his new album, Women and Country,
 


 

set for release on April 6th

"Jakob Dylan delves further into Americana music on Women and Country. With Burnett at the helm, this album is sure to generate a lot of Grammy buzz"- Filter Magazine

LOS ANGELES, CA, March 09, 2010 -- Jakob Dylan has announced plans for an upcoming nation-wide tour with his band Jakob Dylan and Three Legs, which features Neko Case and Kelly Hogan. The tour is set to kick off April 9th in Pittsburgh, PA in support of his newest album Women and Country set for release April 6th. Prior to the release, Jakob will showcase his album in Austin at this year's SXSW Festival, where he will be playing shows at Paste Magazine and Rachael Ray's annual parties.

 

Recorded in Los Angeles, CA, Women and Country finds Jakob reuniting with acclaimed Oscar, Grammy and Golden Globe winning producer T-Bone Burnett (Robert Plant, Alison Krauss, Crazy Heart), who produced the Wallflowers' 1996 breakthrough album Bringing Down the Horse. Jakob is also joined by Neko Case and Kelly Hogan, who provide back-up vocals on 8 of the album's 11 tracks.

Soulful yet striking and ripe with sublime beauty, Jakob reaches new majestic heights on this release with his distinct voice and unparalleled songwriting. This, coupled with T-Bone Burnett's haunting production and the stirringly rich vocals by Neko Case and Kelly Hogan, creates a powerful and melancholic experience for the listener.

Backing Jakob Dylan up on the album's 11 songs are T Bone Burnett's acclaimed group of musicians including Dennis Crouch (bass), Jay Bellerose (drums), David Mansfield (fiddle & mandolin), Marc Ribot (guitar), Keefus Ciancia (keyboards), Greg Leisz (pedal steel), Darrell Leonard (trumpet), Ira Nepus (trombone) and George Bohanon (horns). Standout tracks include the opener "Nothin' But the Whole Wide World," which sets the tone of the album, the pensive ballad "Down on Our Own Shield" and "Everybody's Hurtin'," which showcases Jakob and Neko's moving harmonies.

Jakob recently joined the Court Yard Hounds (Martie Maguire and Emily Robison of the Dixie Chicks) in the studio to record "See You In The Spring" for their debut album. The track will first appear on a split 7-inch that will be issued in conjunction with Record Store Day on April 17th, 2010. The 7-inch will also include "Everybody's Hurting" off of Women and Country.

ABOUT THE SHOW
Described by the New York Post as "fascinating, rewarding and above all, entertaining," and by the Los Angeles Times as "a showpiece extravaganza," Lord of the Dance is a mesmerizing blend of traditional and modern Celtic music and dance. The story is based upon mythical Irish folklore as Don Dorcha, Lord of Darkness, challenges the ethereal lord of light, the Lord of the Dance. Battle lines are drawn, passions ignite and a love story fueled by the dramatic leaps and turns of dancers' bodies begins to build against a backdrop of Celtic rhythm. The action is played out over 21 scenes on a grand scale of precision dancing, dramatic music, colorful costumes and state-of-the-art staging and lighting.
