New Dax Riggs - "Say Goodnight to the World"

The Loach · **Posted:** Sun Aug 01, 2010 11:53 am

It's sounding really good so far, based on the track they put up. They're launching a large tour but no CO dates yet

CD comes out this week, preorder through his myspace, yadda yadda yadda

Anyone else been keeping up with Dax in the last few years?

ive been a fan of dax's writing and style since the acid bath days. cant wait to hear all of this new one. hopefully he hits the western slope this time around.

He put up a few new tracks a day or so ago. Good stuff, I'm really liking it. Gravedirt gets stuck in my head a lot. I'll certainly be buying this one after I get the other Dax vinyl which is in the mail now. Red with black splatter

Another notch in my vinyl-color wheel.

Hmmph, got boned. The vinyl is red but there is no black splatter

It's a bit rare to find color vinyls of music YOU LIKE but a splattered version is so much sweeter. I take joy in the hunt, like someone who searches for rare comics. I found the rare comic but its been cut down the middle.

Great disc, though :rock:

just put dax's new album through its third spin. sounds good. nice progression from his last. im going to do my best to get him booked here in grand junction. how you diggin it loach?

I don't have it, yet. I've heard about half of it, though. Sounds good so far.

If you're pulling for a Grand Junction gig, I'm going to put in for a Ft. Collins show. I just can't drive that far.

I just saw the front page- Dax and TPB at one show.

There should be a whole tour of just that.

It sounds like revival, like dead things coming back to life in a otherworldly ways. The more I listen to this sacrilegious soul music, the more I hear the future.
Anyone else really bummed about that skeletal circus closing down? good things can't last forever...

I never made it to the SC but about half of those folks are on A Board With No Name now. Good crowd- they really dig TPB, too. I wish I could smash this and that board together.

When I met Dax four years ago I was wearing a Those Poor Bastard's shirt. Because I had that shirt on he sat at my table and talked for 15 minutes about playing a show with TPB.
I kinda miss the old SC, I was and admin at one point on that site.

2 Night in Denver. June 24th and 25th @ Larimer Lounge (plus a slew of other dates popping up all over the place.)

See any of you there?

I'm actually opening for Dax on night 2 in Denver. I'm going to do a mash of TPB, Hank III, and Tom Waits songs. Wicked stoked. :hang:

I saw that on A Board With No Name! (I'm noelle on there too) That is so beyond awesome, holy shit. :mrgreen:
