TBT at 10
As a companion piece to “Low at 20,” we congratulate Trampled by Turtles on 10 years together as a band. It was a wild night at Symphony Hall.

Trampled by Turtles performed “Midnight on the Interstate” on Conan. The video was embedded on PDD via teamcoco.com when this post was published but it seems to no longer exist anywhere on the internet.
Perfect Duluth Day was invited to shoot photos for the pilot of the MN Original program The Lowertown Line at Twins Cities Public Television. The Lowertown Line is a music special hosted by hip-hop artist Dessa and featuring bluegrass band Trampled by Turtles and their special guest, fellow Duluth native Alan Sparhawk of Low. The Lowertown Line’s five-song set and insightful conversation was recorded with a live studio audience.
Twitter nerds will understand this. Hashtag humor. It’s a niche category.

The first Duluth band to be cartooned?
I have two tickets to this show that takes place this Friday, August 10th, and I need to sell them to someone else because I can’t go. If you are interested (and live in the Twin Ports area), shoot me an e-mail at aleblan2 @ css.edu.

The new Trampled by Turtles video premiered on the Country Music Channel. This was really a pleasure to see, both as a Duluthophile and a music lover. Our boys just keep getting bigger (and better). “World Premiere” music videos surely don’t have the same appointment television mystique that they did back in the early 80s on MTV, but still. This is cool.
Dave Simonett’s MN tattoo and various Duluth scenes and landscapes all have uncredited cameos. Feel free to do the “Where in Duluth?” game on them. I could only figure out a couple on my own.

Here’s the complete broadcast from Feb. 25 at the DECC Symphony Hall, featuring the Grand Rapids High School Jazz Ensemble and Trampled by Turtles.
Remember when I suggested we do what we can to get Trampled by Turtles on the upcoming A Prairie Home Companion show in Duluth? Well, we did it. Check out PHC Facebook page.
