long time no talk friends. apologies.

i seem to recall an instance in which i promised more regular updates and some mp3s. well, there are no mp3s of yet: things have moved incredibly slowly. i feel, however, that once i get back from a breif stay at the catskills recording will get kicked up into high gear.

at the moment i am revelling in the genius of annie lennox as a performer - live in central park transcends inspirational. the way she moves, the way she connects with the lyric is astounding.

i am also growing to appreciate david byrne/talking heads. i always knew he was good but last night i watched stop making sense (or parts of it) and the first little rays of his brilliance filtered down to me. i'm excited about what getting into his music will bring to mine.


also tiny cities by sun kil moon (a collection of modest mouse covers) has captured my imagination.


tonight IY has two shows, one opening for some schlocky pop-rocker and the other a Thanks Giving party at Castaways - friends are home from college, its gonna be big. i'm spending the day with Henry Terepka (give me a yell if you want to hear his music, some of the best bedroom stuff out there at the moment) and my sister just chilling out and then heading to Castaways later.

oh and its snowing here... pics when i get the camera from nathalie.  ¶ 11:21 AM
