05.01.2009, A new song So Amanset is in limbo right now with band members being preoccupied by different things and Ken doing solo work, but there's a little treat for all of you, a new American Analog Set song called "Winter Birds" which appears on a Peace on Earth : Vol. II compilation. It's a digital only release so it proudly bears its digital era (DRM-free, VBR, MP3) tags. Enjoy! - Buckie
	20.05.2007, Keeping you updated We grabbed this from the myspace post, which was me posting anyways with the info ken sent me. Our Baby Ak or, Ken-Bacca if you prefer is taking a holiday madonna style. Everyone need's a holiday - even our little wizard while he's off at hogwarts. That explains his absence by the way. So we digress. He's been invited to do a festival as well as play a show before hand. Here are the deals and, you know you want the deals so, we give you the deals. For those with money... http://www.smartticket.com.mx/www/indice.html And the pre-game because ken is definetly a gamer http://www.lunalounge.com - Jamie
	07.02.2007, Ken news! Well well well. What do we have here. An update actually! News from AK, mostly. So he says the site store should be opening soon... Send an email to requests, at amanset.com if you want anything. Also, ken is playing a show for swsx but, to quote Jamie, "there are on finite details but be on the lookout". There is also a show coming up in NYC: Andrew Kenny with drummist Sean Haskins. Opening for Sparrowhouse (Jared from Voxtrot) Mercury Lounge, on Houston Street in New York Tuesday, February 13th Valentine's Eve! Kenny @ 9:30 Jared @ 10:30 Woohoo! check this site if you don't believe us. -Buck

	24.2.2006 Sup Yo. Found a few photo's from back in the dayz. Check THIS out from last years tour in Berlin. Looks like a great place for a show. Here's is a Review of the latest album, love the picture of lee. He rocks that long hair really well. Another review but with pictures of their Knitting Factory Show HERE. And lastly is the score of the century. Seriously yo. It's not insulting but, I really cant stop laughing at these pictures. Mostly because it's what I expect the Anti-Ken to look like. The one with the Moustache and who drinks at a Wine bar and eats lots of Cheese. But, he looks nice. Check it.-Jamie
	24.2.2006 It's been awhile since we've said hello. Hello. A few new istems at once! Booyakasha! I found out there is a very real possibility there there might be a song not previously known about by us. Angel Sigh, an excellent song by spiritualized was covered by Ken and appeared on a compliation cd. Never lose faith, put out by AC30. I did a search and cant find anything so if anyone finds it post it in the forum yo! Also we were given two video's by alexandra (see previous news istem) from the set's last show of the tour. It will appear in the video page today. Sean Ripple, the vibes guy that makes you want to dance, has a website! He's quite the artist and has a few prints for sale. You can go to it HERE - Jamie
	21.11.2005 Charlie Murphy! Man, lack of updating going on here. Sorry. y'know one would think that me not having a "real" job means i have a "real" amount of time to spend on the site. We'll, that's "really" wrong. Anyone needing a beginning html monkey that is ready to spend 60 hours behind a monitor send an email. k'thanks. Anyways, I've gotten two new shows.However, I posted some pictures from the austin parish show. Thanks to Alexandra for sharing the pictures! You can view them HERE.
	21.11.2005 I Went to one of the NYC shows and the Philadelphia show. I was welcomed by the band to show up early both shows, of which I'm very greatfull. They're an amazing bunch of people to talk to and interact with. In any case you can find the pictures in the IMAGES section. I was also sent in two shows from boston and the other from tuscon. Many thanks to those that sent them in! Go check out www.bradleysalmanac.com for audio clips of the show from boston. The sound quality is really good.- JAMIE

In any case pictures of the show in San Francisco has been posted in the images section. - Jamie And also thanks to David Yip, there are pictures from the Toronto show. Head on to the images section! - Buckie
	01.11.2005 The last tour is in full effect right now. However all I could find was a show from hamburg you can find it in the images section or just click HERE. They look pretty nice. There also was a short review of the NYC show at joe's pub. the 2nd we've got for it. It's in the INFO section. - Jamie
	24.10.2005 Dear World Hello everyone. Pitchfork reported, incorrectly, that the set were broken up. if you read the article from the 9.17 post there is info in on their future. I knew it was reported in-correctly but havent had much time to write it up here, sorry. See some people's jobs get out-sourced to China and stuff hits the fan. F'real. So, in any case the news update is two fold. There is a tour only vinyl release and the track listing is this (thanks to the poster in the forum). Cool Kids Keep (8:05) First of Four (7:51) The Green Green Grass (7:40) Everything Ends in Spring (8:47). The set are also putting up demo's on their site as a tour promotion. I've downloaded each one and once they are done running their promo I'm going to ask ken if I can post a few up here. Just in case someone missed it. They're beautiful and deserve to be out there for people to hear. - jamie
	08.10.2005 Set Free Guitar Tab Green Green Grass and Immaculate Heart are now tabbed out. You can find them by going HERE. - Jamie
	17.09.2005 Updates Had a little time today to do a few searches since the new album is out/coming out....First are some pictures of the show in Amsterdam, thanks to cisca for letting us borrow them. If anyone has pictures please by all means send them in. Second are 2 articles. One article I found was written by the Austin Chronicle and the other "life in a bungalo". I know it's a very intresting choice for a name. :) Head on over to the ever expanding interview section HERE - Jamie
	30.08.2005 Tourin' Ken emailed me today saying there is a show in NYC tonight at Joe's Pub. It's in the 400 block of Lafayette Street.I'm going to try to make it and take some pictures but i'm a bit skint on cash at the moment.

	23.08.2005 More Album News A reader writes in the forum: "As you may know, the vocal version of 'Everthing Ends In Spring' (on 'Set Free' as 'Theme From Everything Ends...') will be on the forthcoming vinyl tour ep in extended form, but you may not be aware that and edited version will appear on the cd with the next issue of UK zine 'Comes with a Smile' (CwaS). CwaS has previously included alternative versions of 'The Only Living Boy Around' and 'Choir Vandals' and has featured interviews with Kenny in all three editions... This new one is out in September and will be available for preorder very soon. Backing vocals by Matt Pond btw. Kenny likes CwaS, and always gives great copy... I'm the guy who interviews him and the editor of the mag so I'm a little biased... but i also happen to be a dedicated amanset fan and very happy to be in a position to spread the word." - matt Thanks, Matt! - Buck
	09.08.2005 Album News The album is avaible for listening on www.morrmusic.com so go check it out. It's reeeeeally good. We'll work on the lyrics and guitar tab soon enough. - Jamie
	30.07.2005 Let's have an extended play together... Time for some copy&paste job. The new album is here almost, depending on where 'here' is, - it has already been released in Japan but Europe will have to wait until the 6th of September and US even longer - till the 20th of September. So if you considered visiting Japan, now you have no excuse for not doing that! The preliminary information about the album is in the Discography/Lyrics archive, expect more updates when we get our hands on the album. And oh, if anyone wants to write a mini-review, we'd be grateful. Send it here. Though, I have to admit I'm tempted to leave the current description as it is now... Official site has some songs in mp3 format as always, and you can find them all on their official-looking page. - Buck
	15.06.2005 Secrets of the Heart You might not think there would be alot out there on the set given that they're on hiatus right now but! we've uncovered an audio interview no less. The awesome part of this is the acoustic set kenny does at the end. Ok, I'm going to repeat that again. I have uncovered a new song. So the interview is 16 minutes long and from I think the set's tour of Europe. We'll try to capture this, and make avaible that unreleased track but for now check it out HERE -jamie Update: It's in our media archive. - Buck
	05.06.2005 Know By Heart Ok,I know we've been a little behind on something like this but the we've address the band info section. I didnt want to do a bio because well there is a good enough history of the set on their offical page so why just copy and paste. The idea is learn about the band through interviews and reviews? If there are any complaints for the lack of attention there just foreward it to our complaint department. Which is, by the way, the waste bin. Not to be outdone Buckie sat down put a pencil to a page and gave us the lyrics to Thin Fingers! -jamie

	17.05.2005 Blah There isent much going on in the world of amanset (tear) apart from label searching. For those who didnt know Tigerstyle closed down and they are in search of a label. In audio news, from all of my searchs on google and yahoo I've only come across two shows bootlegged. The other night I found the San Fran show and it's pretty good. We're rolling through a ton of bandwidth here though so I'm not too keen on going over limits therefore the show probably wont appear online. - Jamie
	06.05.2005 Playin' Geeetar There was a request in the forum for the tab to aaron and maria. Go to the Disc/lyrics section! - Jamie
	01.05.2005 Late one Monday , The following morning I found today/just now an auction on ebay. It is a LP release of From Our Living Room to Your's however, it is marked Test Release. Although I've never heard of something like this and please note without the album artwork, ever being done in the history of time. (I've been around a long time). Although I'm sure stuff like this is quite common and I've just lived under a rock all my life. (philly). It's worth news material because, honestly, there are too many LP's around from the early AmAnSet catalog. Here's the link to it on ebay. - Jamie
	01.05.2005 Tales of the Unexpected pt.2 Two updates in ONE DAY, something must be amiss! Actually today is my day off and I can only watch so much p-rn before it gets boring. (I'm kidding). Anyways, there is amazing news on the offical set site. There is a bar in brooklyn with a finished version of the album! Guess whose going to catch the train up there and, bring 10$ for the jukebox. If you guessed me then you won a prize. Actually not, sorry to get your hopes up. Here's the tracklisting that I pulled from the site.-Jamie 1.Always Wins 2.Immaculate Heart 1 3.Immaculate Heart 2 4.Cool kids Keep 5.She's Half 6.JR 7.Play hurt 8.Everything ends.. 9.the sharp briat 10.make it easy 11.first of four 12.fuck this..I'm leaving
	01.05.2005 Tales of the Unexpected It was a beautiful summer day and I was leaving my house with a roomate when all of a sudden a bird dive bombed him with a humongo dropping. It wouldnt be all together that bad except that it landed on his head! To make matters even worse he had just taken a shower! So he goes back inside cleans up and as we head for his car ANOTHER bird poo's on him. ON.HIS.HEAD! What I'm trying to say is Andrew Kenny, someday's it's just not your day. Read Ken's hilarious story HERE! - Jamie
	30.04.2005 Help Wanted: Friends Yo! So I used my free time this weekend to do a few things (like clean the basement). I setup a profile on MYSPACE. You know that place that has a bazillon members and countless people lurking on there watching ex-girlfriends or boyfriends profiles and all their comments. Ahem. Here's the profile although it has yet to be given a amanset stamp of approval. We'll keep you posted. - Jamie
	20.04.2005 DOH! Well, well, well, it seems my sluth skills for finding anything Amanset related are not as perfect as I thought. In our VIDEO section we had Come Home Baby Julie, Come Home but I completely missed the hidden link for the 17 minute AUDIO recording of the show! You'll need Real Audio to listen but seriously go check it out! - Jamie
	18.04.2005, What does it all mean? Ok, so if you've been pouring day and night (we know you have) over the lyrics and meaning to will the "real danny radnor plese stand" or, any number of set songs there is a dubious song meaning's site I came across today. Here's the LINK. - Jamie
	16.04.2005, You're part of our New Equation This is no joke, we're going to put out a special release here of a live shows and demo's we've had stored away in the vaults! It's a live show from Toronto 2003 and a demo track I found! Now first I must say about the Toronto show, Andrew Kenny was sick so his voice is quite horse. HOWEVER he's somehow manages to still sing IN TUNE. Amazing or what? I think so! So, please enjoy our ever growing Audio Section for these tunes! We're here to share our love of American Analog Set!! - Jamie
	15.04.2005, Pictures Galore! I've updated the images archive with images! Now isn't that nice. These have been collecting dust on our hard drives, but have finally seen the light of the internet. A reminder: if you have any American Analog Set pictures to share, by all means do send them in. Expect more media updates tommorow. - Buck
	15.04.2005, Guitar Tab Update Greeting's from the unemployed world! I had ALOT of free time yesterday so I sat down with my guitar and tabbed out Fool Around and Continous Hit Music. They can be found in the lyrics section. They're just guides though, I'm by no means as good as Andrew Kenny. I found an interview to go with the many other interviews we've got stored away for a future page but, for now you can just visit HERE .- Jamie
	14.04.2005, A few good pictures Yo! Stop the press, we have TWO updates in a row!!! First is a picture I have yet to decide if I like or not, it's just Andrew Kenny shakeing some conga's or, something. Here's the LINK .I also found a few images from Amanset in New York's Knitting Factory on last years tour with The Album Leaf, who by the way are a very good band! Here's the LINK - Jamie
	13.04.2005, Heeee's baccccck! Alright, So I'm back in the world of computing. No more delay's or hangover excuses. I'm on job. So no fear? Today's sweep I found a guy that has bootlegs for trade. His show is from Holland 2000. Here's the LINK - Jamie
