Can't remember where I heard it, but rumour has it Shane's due to finally go get his teeth done in the near future. With any luck they'll have a go at doing a new album soon enough too.

By the way, Pete, are you into Townes Van Zandt at all? If not, I can fix that for you His work is much, much older than a lot of what I've come across in this thread, but definitely is a precursor to Gothic Americana in a stylistic sense. At least that's what I got from what I've heard of him anyway.
Shane finally got his teeth fixed, my morbid curiosity led me to discover this fact:

Before:


After:


It's kind of sad that as you begin to type Shane Macgowen into google the option for his teeth pops up right away


Anyhow to answer your question regarding Townes Van Zandt; last.fm has been recommending me him for awhile now but I haven't really gone out looking for him so I'll take whatever you've got, thanks
