Site of the Week- Luna's Last Waltz

go here for a blog dedicated to luna's last shows in new york city about a week ago... some great pictures!... you can even check out original bassist justin's telegram to the band!...

during the late 1990s luna made some of my favorite music & played it live everywhere all the time.... its cliche to say they married the velvet underground with television while adding some off-kilter lyrics but there's nothing wrong with taking two of the greatest bands in the history of alternative rock and melding their sound in a unique way... part of me feels they never got the recognition and acclaim they deserved but another part of me is glad; it gave me the opportunity to see them live countless times in the small clubs bands should play.....

i can't end without mentioning that in the middle of argentina's great depression in 2002 luna was one of the only american rock acts (along with stephen malkmus, chili peppers and catpower) to pay buenos aires a visit...i will forever be greatful for that night...

it goes without saying that if you have not heard luna's 1995 penthouse album then i don't know what!
