Nice turnout at O'Leaver's for movie night last night. Landon Hedges from Little Brazil told me at the bar that his band is headed out with Statistics for a brief tour in late October. In fact, members of Little Brazil will be Statistics -- that is, they'll be Denver Dalley's backing band for the tour. Though it's not listed on their site, Hedges said they hope to kick off the tour with a gig at O'Leaver's (probably around Oct. 25).

I source close to the action tells me that Simon Joyner and his band, the Wind-up Birds, will begin laying down tracks for a new album in the next week or so at an undisclosed location (not at a studio). Expect it to be a full-band recorded live. I'm also hearing that Joyner has been added to the Nov. 15 Rachels/Mariannes show at Sokol Underground -- no confirmation yet.

That Millions of Dead Cops show I wrote about weeks and weeks ago is tonight at Knickerbocker's in Lincoln. $10. Wear your Docs.
