Wagonpost part 1


First part in a double- (or potentially multi-) part of Wagon/Gneiss Things/Pizza Night megapost which is still in the process of being ripped and uploaded. Things will resume Sunday/Mondayish when I get back from Boston. Wagon and Gneiss Things, for those who don't know, are the two vanity labels associated with Emeralds, the Cleveland-based ambient/synth/krautrock/etc etc etc trio who are taking the world by storm or some such whatever. Wagon is primarily taken care of by guitarist Mark McGuire with help from synthian John Elliott, and Gneiss Things is the slightly less prolific label run by twin synthmaster Steve Hauschildt. Pizza Night is run by fellow Clevelandian (Clevelandite? Clevelandine?) Sam Goldberg who, while not being part of Emeralds, has played with them and is a solidly-entrenched part of that scene, being also responsible for the venue The Grog Shop. As you can see by the stack there's quite a bit to absorb, plus tapes coming.
