i learned some very interesting information tonight. bobby conn, the bobby conn who is so weird and yet so wonderful, is playing minneapolis on november 5th. as i will be in town and not busy, i am so there.

bobby conn is like the... hmm. bobby conn is not the anti-christ, though i thought he might be for a while. bobby conn is not normal. bobby conn is glam. bobby conn is awesome.

november 5th.

mark your calendars, kids.


in other news, i have been completely obsessed with jim guthrie as of late, which is neat but kind of odd, since i've never much cared for royal city and thought that, to be honest, they were kind of crap. but jim? jim = good.

and, also, i cleaned out my random cd storage area and found numerous cds that need to be listened to, up to and including a copy of red apple falls by smog (which probably belongs to my brother, but he doesn't need to know about that unless he stumbles across this in which case, i will give it back to you if it is yours, drew), two unlabeled pavement random downloads discs (once again, these do not belong to me....drew), and too many elliott smith random albums to even count. i also found a live disc of the jam, random burned copies of albums that i love that i must have intended on giving away at some point, loads of classical music (this is what actually prompted me to search in the area, as i was looking for something for rowan to listen to), tons of mix cds that were made for me from a long time ago, an up records sampler, and a vhs copy of the fellowship of the ring - which is clearly not music, but kind of funny all the same. there was more, too, but the inventory would be too long and boring to continue to tell, so just take my word for it that there were lots of surprises and some things made me happy and some things made me just a little bit sad.

the new pornographers play in less than 48 hours. though i am excited for them and love twin cinema, i am definitely more excited for destroyer. destroyerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

rock.
