Any Matthew Good fans here?

I have to say, I've been out of the loop with what's happening with him. I read his blog once in a while. But music wise, I have no idea. I did hear something about a new album in 2007?

It'd be interesting to know where the rest of the band is as well.

    dave is in 54-40. he played with holly mcnarland and was producing a bit before that as well.

    rich, as far as i know, is still matt's bass player except for the few shows that ryan and meegee from limblifter played with him.

    no idea on ian browne except for a short stint in alarm bell with ryan from limblifter.

    I'll add on to exhausted's post a bit ...

    Matthew has been trying to demo his new record but since he uses GarageBand for it, the bugs that came along with the new version of iLife have delayed that for the short-term. He wants to do the acoustic tour this year so hopefully that will come to fruition.

    I have no idea what Rich does in the "off-season".

    Dave is getting married soon, I think. To Tamara Taggart, the weather person on a local station.

    Ian works at EA as a game tester (unless he just got laid off :P) and lends his talents out to various artists around Vancouver. The most recent I've heard is an artist called Catlow.

    Man I am totally looking forward to anything he does ever. I had no idea Dave Genn is getting married to the weather lady, that is kind of hilarious.

    Matt's doing a podcast at his site tonight or tomorrow, answering fan questions re: music, so hopefully we'll get some more info on what he'd like to do this year.

    MG's right at the top of my favourite artists (PJ, Oasis, then MG). I haven't heard any news about a new album, although I read a while ago that he was heading to the studio soon.

    I just noticed that he started doing podcasts, I haven;t followed his site in ages.

    Did you see his shows in November? They were the first Vancouver-area MG shows I'd missed in about 2 years

    Helped run the Amnesty booth at the Friday show, front row centre at the Saturday show, and they were the best shows of his that I've witnessed.

    Matt Good is just amazing. He has so many damn good songs, I've got all of his stuff (as far as I know). I was lucky enough to catch him in NYC a few years back, hopefully he'll return someday. I would love to see an acoustic show.

    Did anyone else pick up the special edition of In a Coma? Because I love the remix of Prime Time Deliverance and Flashdance II has always been one of my favorites. I find his B-sides are brilliant. I do love most of his stuff though.

    And the music videos... *drools*
    Thanks harrison. Maybe you should take your beatbox down the street and eat some acid you silly pervert.

    I found PTD to be amazing on underdogs... I did not think it could get better. It's one of those songs you can sing so loud. I swear none of my friend appreciate him like I do. I think he is brilliant. And gorgeous.

    Agreed. One of the best songs to sing loud ever. I'm lucky that I have a few friends that are real into him, so we always talk about his music. I really think his lyrics and writing overall are brilliant. Some of the best songs I've ever heard, to be honest.

    His site is a little too politically motivated for my taste, but that's okay....obviously that's what he feels like putting on there.

    I'll always love his music though. "Blue Skies Over Badlands" is one of my favorite songs ever.

    I like that he has one of those unique sounds. And weapon is one of the most moving song I have heard. I don't care... I wish he would tour more often. I missed him when he came to town. I could have seen him in a bar!!! Oh what was I thinking???

    meh, the shows in the bars just end up with the fans being idiots and him getting pissed off and leaving after an hour.

    he attracts a bad crowd.

    so i really hope the acoustic tour happens. i've stopped bothering with his live shows until then.

    Is that so?....can you elaborate? I've only seen him twice, once was at Edgefest in Barrie, Ontario and the other was at the Bowery Ballroom in NYC. That club show was an American crowd obviously and most people were excited to see him play. What exactly do the Canadian fans get pissed off about?...song selection?

    I haven't seen anyone get pissed off... maybe it is selective shows?
