will made us some oars and annie fell in. we stayed out way past dark and figured we would never eat drum again if we can help it, but what fun to catch a 15+ lb fish on your first trip, annie!
the other night evan, nick, taft and i started setting up the studio space on 38th 1/2. tiny floated room inside of a normal sized garage, with a near anechoic quality.
we just fucked around with a cover of NMH's 'king of carrot flowers II.'
i have been reading HOW BRANDON BEATS CANCER for the last few months. brandon is evan's brother and he was diagnosed with hodgekins lymphoma a few months ago. the blog is about b's treatment and progress, and he has thrown plenty of other stuff in, too.
their new record is just what i wanted it to be: progression. these guys have kept developing and changing their sound throughout their entire career. their last three full lengths have all spent ample time in my headphones, and last year's Furr hasn't gone unplayed for longer than 3 weeks since i picked up my copy at their mohawk show.
here's a live version of 'Sadie,' the first song to really hit me on the new record.
check out bass player mike. that dude used to sell me the broken 4-tracks they had laying around at the music shop he worked at when i was living in portland.
please try and find me a better album name, too. please.
i'll be posting more about this show as pictures roll in. i saw some of my friend joel's and they look awesome, too. these are by michael. he's got some pictures of little lo and mother falcon up too.
peep the winnebago man sticker, y'all. style by witte. hair by whatever.
