Oddly enough, "The Night Josh Tillman Came to my Apartment" is probably my least favorite song on the album. IT'S ALL JUST SO GOOD

Yes he was. Beautiful voice, good songs, nice guitar playing. More suited to a small bar/coffee shop than the Chicago Symphony Theater, but I liked him.

The show will likely rock quite a bit harder than you are expecting

I was just listening to some Ned's Atomic Dustbin. I miss early 90's rock.

was going through this series of videos that the A.V. Club had bands do a few years ago. came across this one, which I figured you people might enjoy given your love for Father John Misty.



bunch of good covers on here. the GWAR cover of Carry On My Wayward Son is hilarious/GWARious.

it's been discussed ITT before, but it's worth posting again. the cover of Rikki Don't Lose That Number is probs my fave.
also JTE covering the Boss "Atlantic City" is fabulous

Picked up tickets for the local Tobias Jesso Jr. show for $10. He's totally buzzy right now (his LA show in April was sold out a couple weeks ago).

She was so good at the Riot Room. Can't wait for the full album.
