Went and spent a little over three weeks in the NW and had an amazing time. My friend Mark Schomburg is out in OR and we hung out a bunch. He used to run an artists’ warehouse I lived in. I really loved waking up to crickets and wind moving through trees rather than construction and fire engine sirens. Been seeing a bunch of bands lately:

She & Him
Spiritualized
Om
Devo / Tom Tom Club
Radiohead (twice)
Madonna
Department of Eagles (their very first live show!)
Grizzly Bear
The Residents (tonight!)

Next week is Sunn O))) at the Knitting Factory which I’m really excited about. I’m going to be missing Brightblack Morning Light which sucks. I’ve been playing their last two albums repeatedly for awhile now. 

Finishing up Dark Stars!!! Almost there!!! So excited to get this thing out in the world!

Amazing dental problems. Teeth are just too expensive.

I went to their site and found Grizzly Bear at the top of their list, and then caught my first Grizzly show in Sept. 2006. Love how this stuff goes down. The band just toured through America and Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear joined the band onstage for a couple songs. Caspar Clausen, the lead of Efterklang, took a picture with this girl’s camera who was standing next to me. Was a pretty great exciting show and the band had a great time.
