When your favorite band last released some music in the early 90’s, it’s fair to say there’s not going to be lots of fresh news of the band pumping through the Internet capillaries on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

The Feelies are my favorite band. The Feelies album The Good Earth has been my favorite album for almost twenty freaking years. If you’re curious, one of my Green Monkey Mixes, Speed It Up<\/a> has two excellent cuts from The Feelies (one from The Good Earth, one from Crazy Rhythms).<\/p>\n

I know it’s possible to set up Google Alerts, what have you, to keep yourself up-to-date with breaking news regarding a topic, but I have never felt the need to do such a thing. For whatever reason, today I decided to do a blog search on “Feelies”.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Holy crap. This photo was taken last month. The Feelies are back together. That’s the elusive Bill Million second from the right.<\/p>\n

In my search I discovered that The Feelies are playing at Maxwell’s<\/a> in Hoboken, NJ on July 1st and 2nd (they’re also playing with Sonic Youth in Battery Park on the 4th).<\/p>\n

I had promised myself that if the Feelies ever had a full-fledged reunion, I would travel from Chicago to see them. And that’s what I am going to do.<\/p>\n

I bought two tickets online today. They went on sale on April 23rd. I checked later in the day and both shows were sold out.<\/p>\n

Can you believe my luck? I happen to search for the Feelies, discover a full-fledged reunion, and buy tickets for that reunion before they sell out. Holy crap.<\/p>\n

I’ll probably be flying into NYC or Newark on the 1st, and fly out on the 2nd. Hot damn tamale am I excited.<\/p>\n

Feelies, take me away!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
