God loves a cheerful giver.
grizzly bear is playing DC on June 1st and Philly on the 2nd.
my internet connection sucks, sorry for the double post.
I herd a rumor on the internets that grizzly bear is leakier than an old man's urethra.
I am just worried that by the time the album is out in May, no one will even care to get it anymore.
Which would be a huge shame.
Donora! Nice to know other people are still balls for those kids.
Yes, it is. Indeed it would. A very decent album it must be. The album to recommend to friends and relatives. I cannot wait for its release.
Holy smokes - Voxtrot really misses that kid on the guitar. I won't name drop but I had a long conversation with a semi-famous musician about them once as they had shared some bills and he went on and on about the guitarist really making that band and I wasn't fully convinced until now. It's fine but it's no "Voxtrot."
