Martina on “Too Tough To Die”

Over at Martina Topley-Bird’s web forums, a user tipped her off that The Twilight Singers would be covering “Too Tough to Die” on their new LP.

Martina’s response:

*gobsmacked* That’s so cool. I loved the cover of Band of Gold . I’m so chuffed.

The song is amazing live. I can’t wait to hear the studio take.

Detroit 03 Photos

Ugh…still reeling from last night’s show in Atlanta (and my 5 AM wakeup call + 4 hour drive = still totally worth it).

For those Detroitians upset about not getting a gig this time around, photographer CJ Benninger has a few shots from last year’s Magic Stick show for you to look at and softly cry.

Atlanta 04 Setlist

The Atlanta show was fantastic. The crowd had great energy, and the band reciprocated.

Setlist:
Strange Fruit
Esta Noche
Teenage Wristband
Twilight Kid
Too Tough To Die
Bird Sings
Decatur St
Love
Annie Mae
Martin Eden
Papillon/If I Were Going
Hyperballad
Black is the Color
———————-
The Passion of the Christ monologue/Celebration (Kool & the Gang)
Black Love
The Killer/Roses (Outkast)
Layla Coda
———————-
Somethin’ Hot
Don’t Fear the Reaper/Uptown Again
Summertime/Faded

It was great to see so many familiar faces from the last show at Smith’s. Dulli promised to be back next year with Lanegan: “Next time, I’m bringing the Screaming Trees with me.”

While the main set was banter-free, the encore reveled in antectdotes and asides, including a beyond-the-grave greeting from General Sherman.

Yes, the band was great; but I was most impressed with the Atlanta crowd. It wasn’t a full room; but everyone there was singing along, moving, and all-round giving it up. Congrats, Atlanta. It was a fun time.

Upcoming Overview

Pitchfork has a rather humerous rundown of all things Dulli, with an overview of the upcoming Twilight Singers covers album and tour. But you knew about that already.
