His last record, The BQE (an instrumental affair dedicated to the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway), came out in October 2009… so perhaps this tour is a ramp -up for a new studio album? We can only hope.

Derek Webb – Democracy Vol 1 #3
One a month in 2010…
Derek Webb‘s Democracy Vol 1 is rolling along… This month, it’s Bob Dylan‘s “The Times They Are A-Changin’.” I’ll admit, I’m not a Bob Dylan fan (I know, it’s heresy) – but I like Derek’s version regardless of my lack of history with the original.
For those not in the know, Democracy Vol 1 was part of the Stockholm Syndrome pre-order package, but you can still join in over at the DW store. My plea for Derek to cover Tori Amos’ “Crucify” is likely not gonna happen. Oh well… I like the first three months’ output regardless.
- January: The Beatles – While My Guitar Gently Weeps
- February: Coldplay – Fix You
- March: Bob Dylan – The Times They Are A-Changin’
Derek’s playing at the Aladdin Theater in Portland, OR, at the end of the month with Jennifer Knapp. I’ll be there with my camera in-tow. Look forward to a Jazzsick review later in the month.
~Dan – np: Sarah Kirkland Snider w/ My Brightest Diamond – Penelope
Democracy Vol. 1 is the first in a series of subscription based albums of cover songs that Derek will be recording annually, starting January 2010. Those who participate will not only receive the exclusive album, but will democratically decide what songs Derek will record.
Ever wished you could hear Derek cover your favorite Beatles song? Or Backstreet Boys song? Or even re-record your favorite old Caedmon’s Call song? Here’s your chance. Songs will be nominated and voted down to 12. Derek will record them (demo quality) and deliver them digitally (320kbps MP3s), one song per month for 12 months. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this unique collaborative project with Derek Webb!
Derek Webb in Portland (4/27)
4/28 update… my review with photos is here:
https://jazzsick.wordpress.com/2010/04/28/webb-knapp-portland/
Yay! Derek Webb is bringing his tour with Jennifer Knapp through my neck of the woods. They’re playing the Aladdin Theater on April 27, 2010. It’s not posted on the Aladdin site, but it is listed over on Derek’s tour page. Tickets on sale later in March.
They’re also hitting San Diego and Seattle… maybe they can swing a Eugene date on the way up? I’m crossing my fingers, but if no Eugene show, I’ll be at Portland for sure.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen him… I’m totally looking forward to it.

Derek Webb – Democracy Vol 1 #2
One a month in 2010…
Derek Webb‘s Democracy Vol 1 is rolling along… This month, it’s Coldplay‘s “Fix You.” It’s OK. Not as good as last month’s cover of The Beatles’ “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” But that’s more a function of my view of Coldplay than my view of Derek. Democracy Vol 1 was part of the Stockholm Syndrome pre-order package, but you can still join in over at the DW store. My plea for Derek to cover Tori Amos’ “Crucify” is likely not gonna happen. Oh well… I like the first two months’ output regardless.
He’s also heading out on a short east coast tour with Jennifer Knapp next month… check it…

Derek Webb – Democracy Vol 1 #1
One a month in 2010…
Derek Webb‘s Democracy Vol 1 is underway… first up is The Beatles’ “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” It’s great. Democracy Vol 1 was part of the Stockholm Syndrome pre-order package, but you can still join in over at the DW store. My plea for Derek to cover Tori Amos’ “Crucify” is likely not gonna happen. Oh well… I like month #1’s output regardless.

from Jonsi’s website:
The shows which start in North America in April, will feature a brand new band and a stage set designed by 59 Productions. Both these things promise to be drop-dead amazing. The idea of the stage collaboration with 59 Productions is to bring together the worlds of theatre and music in a new and hopefully unique way, in order to create something other than the hoary old cliches that pass for innovation in rock’n’roll. The ideas remain very much “in development”, but there will be some surprises, for sure. Here’s a maquette of how things might appear. Cute, huh?
So… excited…

Megadeth’s American Carnage postponed
Official Press Release – 1/7/2010
AMERICAN CARNAGE TOUR FEATURING MEGADETH, SLAYER AND TESTAMENT POSTPONED MEGADETH TO ANNOUNCE HEADLINE TOUR FOR MARCH AND APRIL
New York, NY– The much anticipated American Carnage Tour, featuring hard rock behemoths Megadeth, Slayer and Testament has been postponed as Slayer’s bassist/vocalist Tom Araya is in need of back surgery.
While disappointed by the tour’s delay, Megadeth are concerned for Araya and wish him a speedy recovery.
Megadeth are currently scheduling a U.S. headline run for March and April, and are rescheduling the American Carnage tour for Summer ’10. Anyone who has purchased an American Carnage ticket can hold onto it until the new dates are announced. Please visit www.megadeth.com for the latest updates.
Boo… I was looking forward to it, but I guess I can hope it’ll get rescheduled on another day when I can go this summer, and hopefully I’ll still get a photo pass.
