Bon Iver @ Nectar - 3/26/2008
I want to see them again asap.
daryn: I’m not one to review concerts, but Bon Iver was just too amazing to not mention. Imagine “For Emma, Forever Ago”, the album you love so much for, but replace the acoustic guitar with electric and baritone guitars, add some thumping bass drum, and turn it up. So very very good.

Consumption alert: slouching towards audiophilia
music may be an integral part of my life, but i’ve always been cautious not to become one of those purist audiophiles with a tube-based audio amplifier in the bedroom. however i just purchased something they would approve: these headphones. they are described as dynamic open-air, supra-aural, high-fidelity headphones. i may not know what all of that actually means, but what i now hear, and...
Cat Stevens + Flaming Lips mash-up →
wow! “Fight Test” and “Father and Son” transposed and then mashed up (evidence of Cat Stevens’ Yusuf Islam’s successful law suit). Reactions to mashup here and especially here.
