The band is challenging fans to design a poster for the showcase. Check out http://www.imeem.com/thedecemberistsfans for more information on the contest. Per the band, “Extra points are awarded to poster designers who are most imperceptibly able to incorporate a portrait of Ladybird Johnson in their design. Just kidding. Sort of.” Tap into your inner artist and get those poster submissions in!

Ben Kweller @ The Slowdown, Omaha NE Posted: 19 Feb 2009 09:33 AM CST Country rocker Ben Kweller had an impressive start kicking off his tour in support of new album Changing Horses at the Slowdown in Omaha, NE. Kweller played to a packed crowd and his awing performance challenged many assumptions I had going into this show. Assumption 1: Often, I have found that catching an artist on the first night of the tour can be a bit of a let down. Assumption 2: Somewhere, I heard a rumor that Kweller plays short sets. Assumption 3: Country music can’t rock as hard as other genres. Kweller is the epitome of fun. He’s charismatic and a talented musician and his backing band has the chops to live up to his energetic performance. Kweller must be experienced live.
