Got this as it's the road records album of the month and i'm signed up to their album of the month club.
I really like it and it's the type of album i was hoping to get from the club.. 15 bands i've never heard of before that seem pretty good.
Might try to make it in tomorrow.

I was at their Popicália night last night, it was phenomenal.They had Hipster Youth, Squarehead and Grand Pocket Orchestra, it got sweaty and moshy.Brilliant.
Thought I'd bump this up towards the front cause they deserve soem attention.

I can back up Seán here and say that Popicália #2 was incredible. A pretty cosy room, but that didn't stop everyone going mental and several of us (including band members) crowd surfing. Brilliant!

Goodly Thousands man?

ColmDawson · 04-10-2010 7:29pm

Guilty as charged!

KeanSeenan · 05-10-2010 12:54am

Cool, I'm tempted to make a Long Lost thread to get all the stuff out there.

ColmDawson · 05-10-2010 4:12pm

Sure, that would certainly save us from having to whore ourselves out. :pac:

Miguel_Sanchez · 05-10-2010 4:15pm

What are ye talking about?

An up and coming independant record label, the output thus far has been 100% great.
And Mr.Dawson will have something coming out on the label, I think.
Here's his music, http://www.myspace.com/goodlythousands
