Big show this weekend! Analog Moon will be performing at the premiere of The MacGregor Crest, a film by local actor/director Rand Courtney this Friday, February 24th at Workshop Theatre on the corner of Bull and Gervais. Check it out:

   500 years ago Scotland was devastated by the loss of its country’s sacred relic, “The Macgregor Crest”.
   In present day Glasgow, Lindsay, a lowly accountant has first hand knowledge of its whereabouts and will have to do anything he can to attain it. Even if it means traveling to America across the ocean in a crate.
   Under the thumb of a dangerous bookie and love stricken, Lindsay is running out of time and the stakes are too high.

Analog Moon will play for about 30 minutes before each showing and then perform a special set after the last showing. So, come out and see a great new flick and experience a unique journey through light and sound with your friends, Analog Moon. Beverages will be served.

The first showing is at 7:00 pm and the second showing is at 9:00 pm. For more information on this film and others from Innersight Multimedia, visit www.innersight-multimedia.com. Also, check the February 22 edition of Free Times for up-to-date information.

Well, it’s done. Minglewood has closed its doors. We had a great time on Saturday night celebrating (almost) 4 years of fun at one of 5 Points greatest bars. We played to a packed house, and everyone got to wish owners Kevin and Kelly Webb the best for the future. Analog Moon would also like to thank Free Times for announcing the show and featuring us in the Sound Bites section. Here’s what they had to say:

Fronted by local musician and producer Todd Britton, Analog Moon deftly maneuvers between the vintage rock sounds of bands like … The Band … or Pink Floyd and modern disciples like Wilco or My Morning Jacket. The multi-tracked vocals and layered harmonies recall ’60s British Invasion acts like The Zombies, while the music is one-part Woodstock and one-part Bonnaroo. It’s not so much jam-oriented rock , though the touchstones are there , as it is honest-to-god classic rock that is too cool to hear on stations like Fox 102. Minglewood: 10 p.m., free; 254-9999. K. Langston

Saturday night has been added as a last minute show. Analog Moon will be performing at Minglewood for the last time. Come out and help us say goodbye and thanks to one of our favorite venues in Columbia. Expect a great time!

Another bit of quick news – For those of you who don’t already know, our very own Chris Deaver and his lovely Cammie will be proud parents this year! Deaver has taken up the full-time responsibility of readying his castle for a family addition and handed over his Analog Moon bass indefinitely. We wish them the absolute best and will keep you all updated. Picking up the bottom end in the interim will be local Columbia musician and Harmony Grove bassist, Mike Mills. Come out Saturday night and taunt him. It’s fun.
