Blog now, or forever hold your... photos, I suppose. Let's do what we can to clear the cache for 2010:
Christen brought me in all-access when Hey Marseilles and Fences played the Vera a few weeks ago. The result was a veritable slew of off-stage and on-stage documentary-ism, all of which can be seen here. And a lovely little feature on three imaginary girls here.
And Glen... crazy, microphoneless-from-the-edge-of-the-stage, amazing, epic Glen. Let's go here: the show was so good that I was crying. Not "I want to cut myself" good or "it hurts it's so good" good -- like, literally, I was crying, and I had to leave. That's never happened to me before. But the two-thirds I was able to stay for just ate me alive. In a good way. More here, and of course over here.
I am Victoria's multi-show-on-a-weeknight aftermath. We hit the town and caught the likes of Elizabeth and the Catapult, Kay Kay and his Weathered Underground, and caught up with the GIVE comp benefit at the Croc. Still need presents for the holidays? Dig this. Seven bucks, and well worth it just for the remastered "From A Terrace" track. Really.
And the topper to the last handful of shows, for sure, has got to be Hey Marseilles' set last night at Neumo's. They had a 3rd-of-4 slot opening for the Maldives, between Champagne Champange and the headline -- and they just absolutely killed it. 52-cards deep, in fact.
That's all a drive-by, for sure, but there'll be much more to follow before the year is out. Probably. Maybe. Well, I shouldn't be promising that. But I'll be doing a ton of rad stuff that I hope to have time to post. That's accurate.
Happy solstice, or whatever!
