Hey I’m not one to buy crappy posters of bands to put up on my walls, but I think you’ll admit that these posters are really gorgeous and for the price a really good deal. Plus who doesn’t love a little Wilco action?

And for the record I just bought $70 worth of these things and I’m not getting any commission or anything. I just love you all.

So let’s get down to brass tacks shall we? Up The Tree is going to loose the Tracks Up The Tree podcast. Hold on, hold on, before you start cursing at me let me explain. Up The Tree was never supposed to be the Tracks Up The Tree podcast page. That was supposed to be tracks.upthetree.com then later, due to Josiah’s insistent mistakes, tracksupthetree.com. I really want to write in my weblog and it’s become the posting area for all grumbles on my not recording podcasts… and rightly so. It’s been tough, but we are still here and we’re still recording.
And as much as I hate to admit it, I still love doing the show, so it ain’t going anywhere soon. We have a new show planned and are working on a recording schedule.
But as for Up The Tree, it’s going to return to a bit more self referential material with a bit less music focus. I’m still going to write about music, but in the more abstract sense, Up The Tree no longer reflects all my interests and therefore I don’t write on it near enough– or at all for that matter.
“It’s not you, it’s me.”
So shortly you will see the two sides of this website be ripped apart and take on their own lives as separate entities. We hope this makes us write more. We hope you still love us.

So, we’re planning our next show.(I KNOW RIGHT?! ANOTHER SHOW!) And we’re looking for great Irish bands, either indie rock, pop, country, hip hop, anything to do with Irish. leave a comment and get thinking.
The next show will be coming after Halloween, with pictures of Josiah in costume. I promise.

Alright, alright. Here it is… You guys really are some pushy bastards. ;)
It’s over an hour long and some weird thing with GarageBand stopped me from adding the show notes. Apparently 1 hour 3 minutes is all GarageBand can handle… which makes no sense. Also, it’s not in MP3 anymore, it’s in AAC (m4a) format, which will probably drive a few people nuts, but check out the chapters! Ooooohhhhh Chapters! And Artwork! Ooooohhhhh Artwork!
You may want to download it directly… RSS is making my head hurt. Available for a limited time as a link.
Josiah is responsible for all links… and me not getting any sleep.

I am two days away from releasing the next TUTT, so as a peace offering - how about a fresh YouTube video of me? I know it’s not a TUTT, but it’s in addition to TUTT.
