I haven’t listened to any new music extensively for a month or so now. It’s really nice to listen to music that I’ve been listening to for years, or listening to bands that have been growing on me a lot and listening to them more (Like Typhoon and Other Lives). I think I’ll post a little more about this later. Lots of thoughts mulling around my head lately on this subject.

I’m going to borrow one of my coworker’s GoPro cameras and make a sweet biking video. And it’s going to be set to Shopper’s Delight by Yuuki Matthews. Done.

Kopecky Family Band Daytrotter Session →
hleecarpenter:
I’ve been waiting for this one for awhile, go download this session right now!
Agree. Do it!
other than Sufjan’s appearance at the musicNOW fest, the lineup seems kinda boring… I’m surprised.

Schwelt. ;) Did you know it means “smoldering” in German?
Oh! haha weird. I don’t really know where that word came from, I just wanted to change my URL. I really hate schwelt though too…that’s why I’m surveying for people’s favorite words to generate some ideas. But it’s not working. I...

fortyfive-rpm answered your question: What’s your favorite word?
‘Noir.’ Lately I’ve also been quite partial to ‘bombastic’ and ‘crestfallen.’
Oh hmmm I like bombastic a lot. I forgot about that word.

Just watched my brother open up for Ravello and Daniel Ellsworth & The Great Lakes at the same venue I’ll be seeing Other Lives at in 15 days. I’d never been to this venue before, but let me tell you…it’s small, has a low stage, good sound, and lots of good places to sit. I am getting pretttty excited for this show.

Great night.
Just got back from seeing Kopecky Family Band for the 3rd time in exactly 4 months, and it just gets better each time. Everyone in the band is just a gem. I sat with Kelsey while the other band opened and chatted with her a bit…her other band Feather & Belle is playing the Sundance film festival opening for The Civil Wars on Monday…which is just so cool. I went to the show by...

Printmaking is fun, and was my major. Is it a basics course, or a specialization (woodcut/relief prints, etching, litho)?
It is just a basic, basic course. But I am excited either way…it will be fun!

Well...
Tomorrow I begin classes at the community college. I feel like I should be sad or annoyed that homework and all that stuff is gonna start…but for some reason, I don’t care. I feel desensitized to it for some reason I think.
I like this whole looking forward to the future thing…thoughts of being in Chicago this summer are nice. We shall see though. High hopes.
