quadruplify: Stuart Staples (lead singer of Tindersticks) surrounded by pigeons (eva [shinji])
Came back from a lecture by Sarah Chayes about the current war in Afghanistan and her experiences there. I left feeling like I usually do after a good talk: with my head about to explode with all the information and stories and experiences that were brought up. Either this tends to happen -- feeling like you're not going to remember it all yet also feeling more informed about something than you ever thought you could be -- or so little is actually talked about that I might not as well have gone at all, like in the case of Paul Farmer last Saturday.

Also got my tickets for the Dinosaur Jr. concert in Burlington next month, which is really exciting! :D And to celebrate, here's some...Yo La Tengo!




I definitely need to listen to more of these guys -- I've only listened to I Have Seen the Heart Beating As One (if I'm getting the title right, that is -- too lazy/rushed to check right now), and a friend of mine is a huge fan of theirs.  As for my first impressions, I thought that aside from a couple of songs, like this and "Autumn Sweater,"  they didn't affect me all that much, and were a bit boring to be honest.  I definitely need to listen to these guys more, regardless.  Anyway, this video is pure distilled awesome.  :D
