While Marianne Keith acknowledged during the CD release party for her sophomore album, Cathartic, that the people who help her “schlep” gear probably prefer her solo acoustic sets, seeing the So Cal singer-songwriter with a full band was well worth the effort required by the additional equipment. Easy for me to say, right? Well, had I been approached, I would have gladly contributed to the cause and carried an amp or two in exchange for the full band experience. Or at least a couple of mic stands (I’m a bit of a weakling). The point is, I’m sure I wasn’t the only person in the audience grateful to Keith’s roadies for their efforts Thursday night.

Considering that 30 Seconds to Mars’ third full-length, This Is War, debuted at #2 on the alternative album and digital album charts and sold nearly 71,000 copies in the first week, I think it’s safe to assume there are a whole lot of people out there hoping to see the trio live in 2010. If you happen to fall into that category (and happen to live in the US), I have good news for ya: the band has announced the US dates for their Into the Wild tour!

As anyone who read my gushing announcement back in October already knows, I am just a wee bit excited about the March release date of the new Frightened Rabbit album, Winter of Mixed Drinks. Now, with barely two weeks left in my agonizing countdown to March 9th, the band has pulled a fast one on me and is streaming the album IN ITS ENTIRETY on their MySpace page.
