treefort

One of my favorite things about having such wonderful friends that are independent musicians is that some days you wake up with a new album in yr inbox. That happened this morning when I found Treefort’s debut Très Fort waiting to be downloaded.
Subsequently, I have listened to it three times today.
Once while grocery shopping.
Once while cleaning the house.
Once while while rearranging the house.
It has been fantastic each and every time.
The inclusion of Bus Stop made me so happy but not as happy as the last track, My Baby’s Gone.. a complete shocker of a closing number.
Thank you Wes and Elsa for giving this to us all, you’ve gone above and beyond.
Oh, I didn’t even mention the album cover… cover of the year!
get it here.

no coffee month = fail.

i’ve slowly come to the conclusion that without coffee i will inevitably succumb to a deep dark depression.

my ipod keeps shuffling to Yo La Tengo’s album Painful.. It can’t seem to get enough and neither can I.

quotes and conversation

Quote of the day from Connie-
“I wanna eat donuts or something.”
Conversation of the day (between myself and what I presume to be a 19 year old boy at the shop)-
him: I’ll take a small cappuccino.
me: Great, are you gonna stay here or would you like it to go?
him: ummm, well, do you guys play good music here? cause if so, I’ll stay here…
me: yeah, I think we play great music.
him: like Seawolf? i love Seawolf.
me: oh, I haven’t heard Seawolf..
him: what about Girls? have you heard of Girls?
me: yeah, I listened to the first album but I didn’t really get into it and I didn’t pay attention to the second one..
him: did you go see ________ Firday night? ((I can’t remember the name of the extremely hip band))
me: nope, I don’t go out to shows too much these days.. I’m an early riser and an old man.. (I say this while trying to remember how Connie and I spent our Friday night. oh yes… grilled cheese sandwiches, chicken noodle soup and Jaws.)
him: yeah, I think I’ll take that to go.
blogs that I keep looking at:
