    The Return Of Preston School Of Industry
    hello there. for quite awhile, all has been quiet on the psoi front… until now! a new record is in the works, hopefully done by the end of spring, a new website (still working on it), and the most exciting of all… we’re playing shows again! we’ve been asked to support the posies for their 20th anniversary show in seattle may 17th. we’re excited, since we still like the posies very much (even if the drummer is a rush fan). we’re also playing a bunch of new songs… as well as some old family favorites. if you’re up in the northwest, come on down. i’ve also been asked to be a guest curator for the sled island music fest up in calgary, alberta, canada june 25-28. very excited about this! i’ve picked a few of my favorite bands, old and new, to play. psoi will also be performing, but what is really gonna be special is that we’re doing a collaboration with the lads in broken social scene. most of it will be new material made up just for sled island! ok, thanks for listening and hopefully see you soon. spiral….

    I've bought all the re-releases. Is there a list of everything that is available either commercially or in bootleg form? The OCD and completist in me are itching for closure :)




    live Pave shows at Jicks boardcrimson lockets, Tue Dec 16 05:17
    I'm sure everyone has most of these shows, but there are a bunch of live Pavement shows being posted on the Jicks board at this thread link http://www.stephenmalkmus.com/punbb/upload/viewtopic.php?id=8738 I am on the search for the '94 Lawrence, KS show (my first) if anyone can assist. how about that live vinyl!? ... more



    Can we finally admit BTC is their worst album?Fitten Trim, Fri Dec 12 11:42
    Stereo & Shady Lane are great and start the album off... Starlings and Fin are great and end the album wonderfully. But that mush in between. At times, it's hard to tell Transport from Old to Begin to Type Slowly vs. We Are Underused (their worst song ever?) Nothing but mid-tempo / no-tempo songs. Spiral had a... more

    God Bless Spiral Stairs and Corylamar adonis, Sun Dec 7 11:24
    I received my BTC NC Edition yesterday. Worth the wait. Sprial thank you for being the band's archivist. What is the date of the live show? Thank you Cory for making some of this possible.



    Benji Hugheskrug, Sun Sep 7 20:23
    I love his new album...and it has a great Pave reference.. "I'm into Pavement/It's my favorite band/I got the DVD/I watch it fifty times.." If you like Pavement, Harry Nilsson, this guy is the major stuff...his album is called "Love Extreme" with nods to Coltrane.

    if it takes this long for someone to post this: November 18 will see the release of Mark IV in our series of deluxe reissues of the original Pavement albums. Brighten The Corners: Nicene Creedence Ed. sports the amazing packaging and deep contents that you’ve seen in our previous three deluxe editions. Like the... more

    The new Marble Valley albumSeamus, Sun Aug 31 13:56
    is pretty good. It sounds a bit more like an actual band rather than just Steve West messing around. You decide whether that makes it better or worse than previous releases.

    Hmm, I was just looking through http://www.ashodsimonian.com/ and blow me down if there aren't some pictures of Pavement things from Spiral's basement! Including the original image from the Slanted and Enchanted cover, and these intriguing BTC-era tapes! http://www.flickr.com/photos/ashod/2367237900/

    Hi i'm new to the wonderment of pavement and so apologies for this post as it's probably already been answered. But i recently read Rob Sheffield's 'Love is a mix tape' and he talks of a motto 'I AM MADE OF BLUE SKY AND HARD ROCK AND I WILL LIVE THIS WAY FOREVER'. i was just wondering if anyone could tell me what... more

    hi, i'm dan. i've been on this board (or incarnations of it) since 1999. whoever runs this board does a fantastic job with news updates, but the board itself could use work. so much work, in fact, that i don't think it's worth it; i think we need to relocate. maybe we could look into a proboard?
