Hold Steady Album And Facial Hair News

Lucero's Ben Nichols is apparently singing on the new Hold Steady album. (Why not Blake Schwarzenbach?) And apparently Craig still likes beer (see photo). The boys are also having a beard growing contest (scroll). And Franz, a man already famous for his mustache, is playing solo shows in February. All caught up? Walk around and drink some more.

@ Dave

Craig's spoken about Blake (Jawbreaker) as a big lyrical influence.

I'd be content with a Lucero/reunited Jawbreaker/Hold Steady tour.

Ah, dreams.

Jawbreaker/Hold Steady/Lucero tour would be the show of a lifetime (they should join too!)

Ben Nichols is going to sound so good with Craig Finn. Awesome, awesome, awesome.

I think the Blake reference is because Ben and Blake sound similar. Ever heard Red40?
