I've been digging the track I've heard on the radio, and will definitely pick this one up when it is released.

That would be Born Losers, its the lead off single, great track.

It sounds okay, if a little samey throughout. I can't really bring myself to enjoy MG anymore since he's such a total douchebag, but I'll download the album and give it a few more spins before I totally write it off. Also he's really bleating like a sheep at points on this album, and that gets grating.

Just got back from the Marquee where my friend and I got damn lucky and paid way above face value to this sold out show to a few students who weren't THAT keen on going.

Notice how I didn't say we overpaid. I'd pay 60 bucks to see that show again.
Damn epic.

Champions Of Nothing ---> Strange Days ---> Load Me Up...
what an opening.

And then throughout the show, crazy Matt Good songs that I would have never thought he would have played.

Pledge Of Allegiance
Suburbia
SORT OF A PROTEST SONG!

I mean, what a sensational night.
Also, Apparations was surreal. With the whole rooming belting it out, it was a damn cool experience. I would have felt awful had we not got into this show. I really hope he comes through again in the near future with a band... especially for this album.

I hope everyone gets a chance to see him.

It's the same night as Wintersleep at the Horseshoe, here in Toronto. Sad

I hope not cause I was planning on going to both. Wintersleep at the Horseshoe is the 16th, and Matt Good at Massey Hall is the 26th isn't it?

You are correct! I misread the date on ticketbastard... OK, time for me to see about getting a ticket or two to Matt Good.


- grimes - 10-12-2007

Right on...I heard the Massey Hall show may be sold out, but there's also Hamilton Place the following Friday.

I could send copies of the show to someone who would like to put it if you want . just let me know

I have been listening to this non-stop lately.
Definetly one of my favourites of 2007.
I can't get enough of one song in particular right now, and with lyrics like this... how can you not love it?

Well is it larger than a baby's arm?
A few more cocktails will straighten you out
And we'll get to the bottom of it
Something better to disarm
You were in the bathroom far too long
Now look at you go
I'm not safer than a bank, bitch
But I'll tell you this
Because you're bound to find out
Nothing is.



Oh Mr. Good. You surpass your name.

No Twin Cities date, unfortunately. I would definitely be interested in checking him out. Hospital Music is my first introduction to Matthew Good. I'm enjoying it so far...are there any other albums from Matthew Good/Matthew Good Band that anyone would like to recommend?


- sean.bonner - 01-10-2008

Matthew Good Band - Last Of The Ghetto Astronauts
Matthew Good Band - Beautiful Midnight
Matthew Good - Avalanche


- grimes - 01-10-2008

Beautiful Midnight is probably my favourite work of his. And I recently listened to Audio of Being for the first time in a long time - I'd forgotten how good it is too (The Rat Who Would Be King may be the best song he's ever written). And of course there's always Underdogs...
