Guess what I have tickets for??
YES. YES. YES. Finally going to see my boyfriend, Jeff Tweedy, put on a solo show at the Vic in Chi-town! Two nights of whitty banter and acoustics straight from heaven…finally. Can I put in my request for The Ruling Class and Theologians now?
Consider this a heads-up, because these shows are not advertised - anywhere. They are coming up quickly, too - March 12 and March 13. Be there or be square!

The Middle East - “Blood”
Love, love, love - in a way that I don’t have words for. One of the better videos in a while.
Want to forget it is Monday?
…pump up the jam, people. I can’t handle all the awesomeness oozing from this Julian Casablancas track, 11th Dimension.
Seabear - I Sing, I Swim
This is a couple years old, but I’ve never seen this They Shoot Music verion of Seabear’s I Sing, I Swim.
Beach House - Norway
Beach House’s “Norway” from their album, Teen Dream on Sub Pop Records
Husky Rescue - New Light of Tomorrow
Painfully beautiful. Somehow reminds me of my youth…
Husky Rescue - New Light of Tomorrow (from the album, Country Falls)
And thanks to my friend, Matt, for introducing me this version of “Let It Ride” - Ryan Adams. What a hipster.
Lights - Fire Night
It is Friday, friends. Get your party on - include gobs of glitter.

Hope you’re all enjoying this gorgeous Monday Labor Day. I’m off to a family cookout, but I’ll leave you with these jems from Sin Fang Bous (see: Seabear.) Loads of layers, textures, feelings here. Even if you can’t get into the sort of progressive sound, you have to love these videos. xoxo.
Roads…
I don’t mean to be so dramatic on a Thursday morning, but…sometimes I need something with substance, emotion, intellect. My substance came in the form of Portishead today. Love.
Diamond Rings - All Yr Songs
…because its Friday and I’m feeling glam. xoxo
