2011 tour dates; AFP vinyl; 2006 radio show

Happy holidays! It’s been a while since my last update, but that’s because there hasn’t been much going on in the Kozelek camp as of late. However, there’s been some recent activity I thought I’d recap.

A bunch of 2011 tour dates have surfaced on Mark’s official site. See the right sidebar for those. I expect more US dates will trickle in over the next few months.

If you were lucky enough to snag one, Mark had some numbered, autographed marbled vinyl Admiral Fell Promises albums up for sale on Caldo Verde last month for $50, but that didn’t last more than a day. I tweeted it out when I found out about it, so definitely follow @sadreminders for timelier updates. The white vinyl versions have sold out, but you can grab one on eBay for some ridiculous amount of money. If you’re not worried about color, you can still grab the standard black vinyl version at Aural Exploits or Insound for about $25. All of the different versions have 2 extra tracks recorded live in France.

Finally, forum user seven1082000 spotted a 28-minute radio show and acoustic performance over on archive.org from KEXP on January 13, 2006. Tracks played: Four-Fingered Fisherman, Tiny Cities Made of Ashes, Salvador Sanchez and an amazing version of Bubble. If you use Google Chrome, you’ll be able to stream the file, or there’s a link to download as an MP3 as well.

Change to upcoming Spanish tour dates; AFP vinyl

A couple things going on in the Sun Kil Moon camp as of late.

Without any warning, the Spanish dates have been cancelled with the exception of Barcelona, which is now 2 nights at Heliogàbal. He’s appearing October 22 and 23rd. Updated tour dates and links are in the right sidebar.

All 1000 copies of the white vinyl version of Admiral Fell Promises are sold out through Caldo Verde, but are still available at Aural Exploits. Aural Exploits should also have the regular black vinyl versions up soon.

Additionally, for those going to the Scandinavian dates, there will be 100 copies of a marbled vinyl version that will be exclusive to those shows later this month.

New tour dates and a special tour poster

There are some new tour dates below, and a brilliant new tour poster by Jason Munn (look closely.. you’ll see it). You can snag that over at Caldo Verde’s site, and definitely check out Jason’s other tour posters at his site

Finally, if you never picked up Mark’s book of lyrics Noches de Transito (the Spanish edition of Nights of Passed Over), the upcoming September 10 San Francisco gig at the Palace of Fine Arts has the only copies available. The book is in Spanish and English, but I believe the introduction is in Spanish only.
