Walkmen

Hello from Boston where Hanna is breathing down our necks and it's humid as hell.

I notice that you have The Walkmen show posted on the blog as an upcoming event. Their new album is my favorite of the year so far (granted, internship has sapped my ability to listen to much new music). I've seen them play at least three times and every show has been outstanding. I hope you all can get together for the one in October, I plan on going to see them up here in a couple of weeks.

Some other favorites for me this year: King Khan and the Shrines ('The Supreme Genius Of...'), the new Silver Jews (going to see them tonight!!), Thomas Function ('Celebration').

Come and visit when you can. We have a guest bedroom.
