style="font-family: lucida grande;font-size:85%;" >last night clay, matt, kacee, jim, and i saw <a href="http://www.kingsofconvenience.com/">kings of covenience</a> at smith's. i expected to enjoy myself, but i must saw that they put on a damn good show. highlights for me were 'i don't know what i can save you from,' 'little kids,' and the two covers they did. covers are really hit or miss for me, but they nailed them both. the first, 'range life' by pavement, i didn't even recognize at first, and 'crooked rain crooked rain' is my favorite pavement album. but that didn't even hold up to the second encore, tom petty's 'free fallin.' oh my goodness, this was the shit. <br /> <br /><a href="http://www.kingsofconvenience.org/roma052001/10.FreeFallin.MP3">listen</a> to them play 'free fallin' live. <br /> <br />matt took some holga shots, and i will link to them if he posts. <br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1'

style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family: lucida grande;">so we saw the arcade fire wednesday night. i won't go into details, but yes, it was awesome. i knew what to expect from seeing them open for <a href="http://www.theunicorns.net/">the unicorns</a> back in june, but now that i know their stuff it was great to see them again. <br /> <br />owen pallett, aka final fantasy, opened the show and i was very impressed, as were my comrades. he arranged the strings on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0002IVN9W/qid=1107008052/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-7787685-3549634?v=glance&s=music&amp;n=507846">'funeral,'</a> and solo, he loops his violin to sound like a complete band. beautiful stuff. <br /> <br /><a href="http://www.apertureenzyme.com/aperture%20enzyme/Moving%20Pictures/finalfantasy.mp4">watch</a> owen play live <br /><a href="http://www.everyhumanstep.com/final_fantasy-peach_plum_pear.mp3">listen</a> to his cover of joanna newsom's 'peach, plum, pear' <br /></span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img

original, but i've really been digging it. angular indie rock band that bust into barbershop harmonies and bring it back to indie rockland and totally pull it off. <br /> <br /><a

them, and matt for giving me what he said would be my 'new favorite.' not quite, but still one of my favorite discoveries of 2004. <br /> <br /></span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img

style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family: lucida grande;">so, this is my first post to what will probably be something that i slack off on in the very near future. jim and i somehow got on the subject of blogs saturday night at estoria. this was slightly before he emptied almost an entire bottle of spicy mustard into his mouth, which he then couldn't handle and released into the nearest ashtrey. i did take some lomos of this spectacle, which i will try to post here when i get them developed. anyway, we were both on the fence about blogs in general. neither of us thought our life was interesting enough for others to read about, but both of us saw a quality in the posterity factor. <br /> <br />anyhow, here i am, for what could be one of the shortest blogs ever. <br
