Blackpool Lights

Everyone knew it was coming. When the Get Up Kids, easily the best band ever to originate in Kansas (despite the fact that they called Kansas City, Missouri their "hometown), started taking extended hiatus, everyone knew that the members who weren't in other projects already would be in them eventually. There's Reggie and the Full Effect, the New Amsterdams, Koufax and Blackpool Lights (I don't think I'm forgetting anyone...). Jim Suptic has really done some great stuff already in Blackpool Lights despite the fact that they don't even have a full length album yet. Check out a couple from their tour ep and a demo that I am QUITE anxious to hear a full blown version of:

Blackpool Lights - Crash Sounds
Blackpool Lights - Empty Tank
Blackpool Lights - Maybe Just Maybe (Demo)
