Thanks to Kevin for sending me the
Other Men -
Wake Up Swimming lyrics so I didn't have to copy them out of the album jacket.
They are formatted and available on the
LYRICS PAGE. I will get around to editing them to include the repetitions, etc... and how they are sung in a bit.
Video editing, uploading?

I've got the best video left to upload for everyone - the full Heavy Vegetable set performed in Chicago. Unfortunately, it's just a hair over 100mb as it came off of my camera, which exceeds YouTube's (or anyone else's I've found) upload limits. Does anyone have any suggestions for easy and free ways to either edit the video or places to upload it that don't have that limit?
The camera saves it in .mov format, and it potentially could be broken up into smaller pieces if it needed to be. But I don't even know how to do that. There's lots of things they don't teach in architecture and record label school.
Either comment here or shoot me an email if you have any suggestions.
Articles/review page

I know - I screwed up the articles and reviews page while finding and adding in all of the dozens of new reviews that have been showing up for Living Well. I'll hopefully fix it tonight.
EDIT: I've fixed the problem and added a bunch of the reviews I could find. Let me know if you see any others out there - especially in print sources that I probably don't read.

I find it awesome that
The Casbah linked here in reference to Rob's show.
UPDATE: Looks like
Cat's Cradle in North Carolina is doing the same thing... complete with the picture I took last year. Ha!
Clorox Wipes commercials

Rob's vocal appearance in some recent Clorox Wipes television commercials has caused a huge influx of visitors to this site. Kevin sent me some YouTube links to the two different commercials (same song) so I got to see them finally. That's the price I pay for not watching TV.
Clorox Wipes KissClorox Wipes DanceI ripped the sound off the YouTube video to make an .mp3. Check out the
Sounds page to download/listen.
To answer many people's question: No, I don't think this is going to be released on any of Rob's albums. If you like it, you will probably like his newest album,
Living Well, though.
Buying Albums

I've updated the Discography page so that the album covers take you over to Amazon.com so that when you're browsing to see what you're missing in your Rob Crow library, you can easily order them online.
Not everything is available there, like the Pinback live EPs, or the compilation discs, but most of Rob's music is available there.
Maybe some day we'll get those hard-to-find releases available to buy on this site.
Also, be sure to check out the all-new Videos section.
Lyrics and Discography updates

I've added in lyrics for Pinback's Messenger and Versailles thanks to a reader named Dark Fantasy. I've also finally added in a project Rob worked on called Zach Hill and the Holy Smokes. Thanks to Loic Lorthioir in France for reminding me about this project. For those unaware, I recommend starting with track 5, Getting In The Head Of Your Galaxy, to actually hear Rob playing and singing. If you're not familiar with Zach Hill's other projects like Hella, check them out too. And don't forget he's the other half of The Ladies.
