Obvious ILM-orchestrated ruse to lure Chris Ott out of hiding for a "Castoffs" beatdown

Apparently, American Music Club has a little more giddy-up left in the old caboose than their contemporaries in the Pixies and Whiskeytown. As we reported reported back in August, Mark Eitzel has reformed American Music Club to record a new album, You Better Watch What You Say, and play a show or two in California. Like any meeting of old lovers, once is never enough for these veterans of the jangle and weep. Mark Eitzel has posted welcome news of more reunion shows on his website, so you sad sacks will have reason to leave the house this winter, even in the Southern California chill.

Come December, American Music Club will play a month-long residency at Spaceland in Los Angeles, CA, with a free show every Monday. As added incentive, the band will be selling a live album from their August 21st reunion show at San Francisco's Make Out Club, which will soon also be available in streaming audio on the group's website.
