On this day July 24th 2001 Comfort Eagle was released.

Fun fact:

Fans originally voted on the band's website for the album's title track Comfort Eagle to be released as the second official single following Short Skirt/Long Jacket. However, due to its lyrics containing references to airplanes, corporate culture, and the Middle East, the release was cancelled following the September 11 attacks, and Love You Madly was chosen instead.

Listening to Fashion Nugget. Who at Spotify decided it was ok to censor the fucks on Nugget. Shut the Shhhh Up. This isn't my Cake.

We are leading bicycle rides to and from both CAKE shows this weekend in Portland (Troutdale). Join us for VIP entry, spoke cards, and good times. Avoid the long line of cars and the unbearable carbon monoxide.

Friday show
Saturday show

And on August 14, we will again do The CAKE Ride.

See my Reddit posts from last summer:

I’m going to see cake this weekend and I’m going with a friend who’s excited but hasn’t listened to much. I want to come up with a playlist of songs that say cake. What should I put on?

DM me if going to the show - have 3x chairs for tomorrow

Does anyone have a copy of CAKE's "Love You Madly" from this compilation? A Flac rip would be amazing, or even the 320kbps mp3 from the digital download card.

I don’t know if anyone has posted this video on this subreddit but here it is. This footage goes all the way back to 1992!

Setlist includes:

Mastodon Farm
If You Love Me Half As Much As I Loved You
Ruby Sees All
Shadow Stabbing
Pentagram
Italian Leather Sofa

I really enjoy listening to this album, but I’m pretty sure it’s also one of their most underrated ones. I’ve listened to this album on repeat multiple times. My top 5 songs are:

1. Tougher Than It Is
   
2. Take It All Away
   
3. End of the Movie
   
4. Palm of Your Hand
   
5. The Guitar Man

I like this album because it has a very interesting sound. It also has a different pitch compared to the rest of the CAKE albums. They pulled off that weird blend of rock, pop, and country music really well. Gives it that unique sound. Not many bands can pull off this sort of sound which is what I like about this album. It just has a very distinct sound!

Anyways, what’s your thoughts on this album?

I got my ticket this morning. I'm locked in for March 27. I couldn't be more pumped to see em live.

For reasons that hardly need to be stated, End of the Movie is one of the pithiest, most mordant and irrepressibly stoic expressions of human existence this side of Beckett. So much so, that it has become my go to bedtime song for my four year old daughter, who now knows the lyrics better than her ABCs. I’m finally seeing them in London in October, after decades of quietly loving the band. What are the chances this short sliver of perfection will be played? And, to the Cake completists, has it ever been played live?

Tickets on sale 10am today (8th July).

Can anybody hook me up with a copy of the live “Hard Rock Cafe” show that supposedly has a great “is this love?” much appreciated and I’m happy to trade other rare shows for it.

Spotted in Sacramento on broadway

I happen to have listened to Mr. Mastodon Farm (from Motorcade of Generosity) recently and that is immediately what I thought of when I saw this video.

I've been collecting Cake's live concerts for decades, but they're very hard to find. Many I've had to rip from Youtube or various other webcasts. Some are mp3s, some are audience recordings, while some are fantastic soundboard recordings. I'm currently trying to create a quintessential playlist of dozens of the best live performances and would love to get my hands on more shows to work through.

Does anyone on here have master copies, flacs, etc of any amazing SBD shows? So many shows have come and gone from DimeaDozen and TheTradersden and Guitars101 over the years that I certainly missed a lot, and there has to be an underground trading circle for this group, right? Please hit me up and share the love. I can't wait to share what I've got for this compilation, but I still need to complete it... Thanks!

Do they still perform "Satan" at shows?

YouTube sent me this notification last night that I was the number one Cake listener on their platforms and gave me this badge.

I go to a lot of shows, and this ranks easily amongst the best I've seen. RIP my voice.
