Cardinology

If you didn't know, Ryan Adams and the Cardinals are putting out a new record next Tuesday. If you know me, you know how exciting this is for me. Well I got anxious and copped an advance copy from the world wide web. Now, this dude is infamously inconsistent on record, but I'm more than half way through, and it RULES! One clunker- Magick (Although he does sing about zombies! I have hope for this one live. Kind of a scorcher), one just-ok song- Natural Ghost. And the rest fucking kills it! Go Easy! Cobwebs! Rulers. And this is only the first listen! You can stream the record somewhere online. Look it up. Ok Ok, get back to your normal lives. Geek session over.

Picked up a new title. Looking forward to fulfilling my duties. WEEKENDLIFE

35 Hours In Chicago

Like I said before, I went to Chicago this weekend. I went 2 for 3 on the goals. Here are the results of one of said goals.


Dave. Pretty much just a ruler of all things. Ask him about Neutral Milk Hotel. No cats were harmed in the making of this photo.


Jenny. Kemi's sweetie. Don't ask her about Cat Power. Also a ruler.


We danced. I was hyped apparently


The New American Couple. I think they are a shoe in for Cutest Couple of the Year award.


At Ear Wax. Before the espresso milkshake. Highly recommended.


Kemi. Pretty much one of the most amazing human beings alive. Thanks for everything.


Pilsen art walk.

The drive home got a little rugged, but me and Ash hammered through it.
I spent my time with some really great people in a great city. Kemi rolls with a proper crew, but really, would you expect anything less from her?

Truth

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions.”

I'm not too familiar with her work, but damn, she's got it right.
Everyone should listen to Neutral Milk Hotel, all the time.
If you came last night, you rule. Thank you for kicking it with me. Going to Chicago for the weekend. There are 3 goals. I'll keep you posted as to how those pan out. Stay Positive.

Is she saying "tits" or "hips"? Either way, she is hot as shit. Do you know you can work in Sweden as an English speaker without much trouble?


This is from last holiday season. Jesse Lacey and Kevin Devine. Trailer Trash. Word. I remember this being good, I might be wrong.


Admittedly, hip hop is not always my thing, and this DVD doesn't even look that awesome, but, nonetheless, Wu Tang Clan AIN'T nothin fuck with.


Love me some of this dude. I'd be so hyped if I met that dude with the leaf on his head!


In other shark news, NYC ruled, I saw the U.S. Open, I'm broke as fuck- no really, brokeasfuck, I got a new job, and a new bike, I still drink too much, I don't see some people I care about enough, Alligator may be my favorite record, Land of Talk is pretty great, Kevin Drew's lyrics don't make a lick of sense, it is fall- my favorite season, this is the first time I've been on the internet in like two weeks, and I might, just may be, losing my mind, slowly. Keep it real innanet.
