Not really ordered yet, and I’m sure there’ll be much to change, but it’s nice thinking about it:
Moscow Olympics - Cut the World
Boris - Smile
Los Campesinos! - Hold on Now, Youngster/We are Beautiful, We are Doomed
Cut Copy - In Ghost Colors
Blank Dogs - On Two Sides
Times New Viking - Rip...
omggg showsss
Shows are definitely the reason why I’ll never become a huge druggie/alcoholic/etc. They’re way too fun and cost too much money to spend it anywhere else ahaha.
Cut Copy has to be one of the funnest bands to watch.
And then tonight = MBV. Which is going to blow my fucking mind.
I can’t wait.
just a note for future reference:
Fiasco, Oct. 2 @ DBA
Okkervil River, Oct. 6 @ Webster Hall
Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Oct. 9 @ Public Assembly (aka Galapagos)
of Montreal, Love is All, Oct. 10 @ Roseland Ballroom

LIGHTNING BOLT.
EVERYBODY SIT DOWN.
HOLD HANDS.
AND WHISTLE.
fucking awesome.
The band’s going great.
We finally practiced the songs Eric and I have written up and they sound amazing live.
Can’t wait to play some shows and rock the fuck out of everyone in the room.
like.
I like tumblr.
I like this week.
I’m beginning to accept the absence of a bassist in my band, but 3 guitars, drums, possible keyboard, and vocals sounds badass enough in my mind. Fuck tha’ low end. I’ll drown you in noise.
Boris
fucking rules.
also, fuck lines to a venue. It’s a *music* show, not a fucking club.
/bitter about missing Crystal Stilts.
+ I like meeting new people.
Hello Tumblr!
This actually looks kinda decent.
I should go to bed now.
