What's good, world?

I'm listening to this bootleg from Panda Bear's ATP show on Friday. It is excellent so far- I love the inclusion of Animal Collective tracks that they seem to be done with (live, at least) as a band.





I'm really looking forward to this weekend. Andrew Bird, Wavves+Zach Hill, Low, Collections of Colonies of Bees, Megafaun, Antlers, Atlas Sound, Ganglians, and a whole day to do homework and recover from Ghetto Division. Should be a good time.

I just listened to Ganglians for the first time a few days ago--I thought I had listened to them before but I guess I hadn't. I recommend checking them out. A lot more listenable then most of their psychedelic lo-fi brethren.

I'm also enjoying Kurt Vile. And the Volcano Choir album. Lately I've also been really into making sandwiches and picking up things in my room and putting them in another spot.

Wish HEALTH could have played Club 770.

After the excellently-attended Music Committee kick-off meeting on Thursday, Danielle and I walked to the High Noon to see Ramona Falls. Twas an excellent show. There was a remarkably small crowd (about 25 people tops) but it was an early show, a Thursday, and unfortunately I guess a lot of concert-going folk don't even know the band's frontman's main band Menomena. I didn't myself until prepping for their Chicago show (with White Rabbits, Hollywood Holt, and Mt St Helens Vietnam Band, all for 5 bucks!) that I went to this summer with John, Brigid, Danielle, Will, and Sam. Well, they're both pretty fantastic bands so I recommend checking them out.
