American Revolution/Late BP Helium Review at Harmonium

Published Saturday, July 01, 2006 by Jeff | E-mail this post

Sorry for the gap in postings, or responding to your emails...I was taking a brief sabbatical on the California coast. Now I'm back and sunburnt and ready to plunge back into the tangled world of Elephant 6, and there's much to share, as it turns out.

First up, Samantha Herald has posted an excellent review of the dual American Revolution/Late BP Helium show at the Dame in Lexington on June 26. Some photos and some nice descriptions of the acts, including another hint as to the mysterious pop mastermind behind The American Revolution. (To recap: Robert Schneider of The Apples in Stereo and Craig Morris of The Ideal Free Distribution are in this band called The American Revolution, and Robert sings, only he claims the true mastermind behind the band is a rock star of great renown; according to Samantha's review, he made a possible reference to this unknown supergenius by thanking a "Billy" midway through their setlist...make of that what you will.)

Another live review of the show can be found at You Ain't No Picasso.
