deer tick

i l-o-v-e, love this band. saw deer tick play tonight. i think i fall in love every time i see them because tonight, i'm in love (again). the lead singer, john mccauly, closed up the show tonight on his own with this lovely song: 



daydreaming lyrics quick transcription:
early in the morning, too hungover to go back to sleep.
every sound is amplified, every light so dizzying.
listen for a while to the neighbors having sex.
wish that i could lay my aching head upon your breast.
can't i dream another dream, can't i close my eyes and wander back to sleep?
but i'm day dreaming about you
i know that it's wrong that i'm day dreaming about you.
i've been day dreamin for so long.

bloody mary afternoon, waste my time out in the sun.
humm myself some melody maybe i could sing you one.
maybe i could find you sitting down at the cafe
maybe i could join you at your table today.
can't i just get what i want?
can't i be the man that steals away your heart?

but i'm day dreaming about you.
i know that it's wrong that i'm day dreaming about you.
because i've been day dreaming for so long.
i've been day dreaming for so long. l

later in the evening take the bus down to see the show.
you'll be behind the bar i'll get a beer leave a tip and lay low.
i'm just a kid who gets his drinks from you stands around and doesn't have a clue.
can't i hold you close to me?
can't i ever say to you just what i mean?
but i'm day dreaming about you
i know that it's wrong that i'm day dreaming about you.
i've been day dreaming for so long i've been day dreaming for so long.

derby weekend

90+ degree weather, sundresses, floppy hats, mint juleps, sunshine, roof decks, views of cambridge and wonderful friends. who doesn't love a themed party?

a laid back, sunshiney mix.

to me, the video for latin america by holy fuck kind of embodies the weather this weekend.

i was a teenage anarchist

"do you remember when you were young and you wanted to set the world on fire?"

the splash page of the against me! website has a wonderful "fan appreciation" video along with the studio recording. white crosses -the new album will be coming out in june, it leaked already, though. the whole song/video is a huge nostolgia piece for me.

youtube live recording:

motivational

went for a nice hike this weekend.

some fun sledding down the hill and some pretty pictures. anyway here are some bits and pieces for a motivational mix. most of these songs have a similar tempo, so i like running with them: also, lcd soundsystem's new full album streaming on the website; big fan of: drunk girls, i can change, and you wanted a hit

random, random music

mumford and sons. i think this is the single off of "sigh no more." at first i mistook them for flogging molly, but was way wrong!

top 5 of my weekend:

p.s. what do you think of the new jack johnson single ? ...i'm not so sure i like it.

spring! (summer - 74 days)

soon there are going to be too many people around to take mid-day shots like these!

from a cranky monday morning

ugh. was not a happy camper this morning, a playlist to fit the mood.
includes some new stuff from lcd sound system, angry stuff from brand new and some happy stuff from the eels.
