So I saw that the Blues Explosion is coming to DC in November. Does Jon Spencer still front the band? Because it's only listed as Blues Explosion. And also, are they still any good as a live band?

the blues explosion played in malmö, sweden a couple of nights ago. It was dull and predictable. But yes, Jon Spencer is still at the mic, jumping around and striking poses like he was still 22. I left after about 10 minutes....

They've dropped his name because they say they're a band, not a solo act. I saw them twice aboot two months ago, and I thought they were great, probably better than the shows I saw nearly a decade ago. Of course I saw the last two shows of a five date tour, so they probably weren't as exhausted as they were after flying overseas.

Holy shit, they're not on Matador anymore, the new album, which is coming out real fucking soon is on Sanctuary.
I don't know how I feel.
