Jerry week was fun but, I’ve been catching up on a lot of other great, live, music lately and I thought I’d share some of it with you.

First up, on the heels of yesterday’s Spiritualized article, I have a link to a show from just last month. On July 25, 2008, Spiritualized kicked much ass onstage at Washington DC’s 9:30 Club. Being a completely oblivious fool, I missed the show. However, NPR’s All Songs Considered made the gig and they’ve made it available for your listening pleasure. Check It Out.

This Summer, My Bloody Valentine broke 13 years of silence and hit the stage in the UK. For some fans this is a dream come true. Me, I’m waiting for the full-blown US tour before I crap myself. Anyway, they did play and they brought their sheets of sound in a big way. Web In Front has a recording of the 2008-06-13 show up as a podcast right here. I have to tell you two things about the recording. First, the vocals are inaudible beneath the rest of the instruments. Second, Web In Front suggests that you start listening at a conservative volume and they are not messing with you. It gets loud. Handle with care.

Next up is the guy who first hipped me to My Bloody Valentine, Trey Anastasio. He played two electric shows last week in the NYC area with a band he’s calling “Classic Tab.” For those keeping score at home, that’s Russ Lawton & Tony Markellis from the ’99 trio shows along with keyboardist Ray Paczkowski. The first show was held on 2008-07-08 in hipster central (aka the  Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn.) You can stream it below or grab the lossless download here. Trey and Classic TAB followed this with a (from all reports so far) hot set at the All Points West festival on Sunday.

And, lastly… on 2008-06-17, Sigur Rós played a gig at NYC’s Museum of Modern Art in honor of Icelandic Independence Day. Current TV was there and shot this terrific (46minute) video. You can also find this somewhere on your real TV (if you have Current TV in your listings…)
