The tallest man on earth

There's something impressive about a guy who's from Sweden that sounds like he's straight outta Tennisee. Folk is what it is, and continues to present it self in just as much a humbling way, as it does with honest truth. It's more than a little euphoric to hear songs like this. Songs that can stand on their own, only to be caught within a momment in time. Resting in the middle of nowhere, for only a few unknowing instrument seekers to hear what they might have missed if they decided to do anything else on this perticular day.

PS (San Diego kids) This guy opens for John Vanderslice 6/30/09 at the casbah. See you there.

Remember That Hilarious Crazy Cat Lady In The Simpsons? She Really exists

Watching this trailer makes me feel lonely.
I would let these ladies take care of me. I wish they weren't so lonely.
I would Hate To be a cat lady. Because I hate cats.
They suck. I would be a 'Dog Man' Does that exists?
I hope, Can you imagine man who lives in a wooded glen with hundreds of dogs?
Running threw the woods on a full moon naked with all his best K-9 friends? Sounds like heaven to me. Here is the Trailer for the new Documentary from Christie Callan-Jones entitled 'Cat Ladies'
ENJOY

Words of wisdom, and nude girls.

In honor of the Father's Day that happened yesterday I'd like to show y'all a quote from a book I'm reading (A Fraction of the Whole by Steve Toltz). To put it in context, this is a journal entry written by a new dad who's terrified of parenthood:

I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry what terrible tomorrows we'll have together what shabby luck your soul fell into the body of my son my son your father is love's lonely cripple. I'll teach you how to decipher all the confused faces by closing your eyes & how to cringe when someone says the words "your generation." I will teach you how not to demonize your enemies & how to make yourself unappetizing when the hordes turn up to eat you. I'll teach you how to yell with your mouth closed & how to steal happiness & how the only real joy is singing yourself hoarse & nude girls & how never to eat in an empty restaurant & how not to leave the windows of your heart open when it looks like rain & how everyone has a stump where something necessary was amputated. I'll teach you how to know what's missing.

Pretty cool, eh?

RUN TOTO RUN covers PASSION PIT

I'm not sick of this song at all (*wink*) but its great to hear different versions, especially if you're a very cute girl in fairy wings with two talented furries by your side.

Good job girl. Way to get in the game.

Here is Run Toto Run's cover of Passion Pit's "Sleepy Head"

WE SAW THE YEAH YEAH YEAHS (and if you had a goodtime we made fun of you)

I went to the Indy Jam in San Diego last Sunday. It was dope on a rope. Besides two things..... One, it was in ocean side. Two, the lead singer of the Black Keys got his hair cut short and shaved his beard. I believe this really affected the way he plays guitar. I hear the drummer is an ass hole. Perhaps this is why the guitar player had to put out a solo album.
We also saw the yeah yeah yeahs, there was a very pretty hipster girl there and sadly this is the only footage i got of the yeah yeahs.
This one is for you random hipster girl i made fun of.

Thinking Drinking Sinking Feeling

There's definatly a part that exisits inside me, that is stronger than other things. A part that wants to make music and art with another being (preferably a female). More than I'd like to skate or watch basketball, or do anything else for that matter. There's something about getting caught in a poorly lit motel 6 room, making rad music, that makes you feel like you get it. AND to be honest, SLOW CLUB, I think you guys have figured it out, at least better than I have. Thanks for the words

Whatever my hearts not made of coal OK

So I've been like, Dude I can't wait for that movie UP to come out, it looks so cool and blah blah blah. So Jen was like, "Oh yeah let's drink a couple clubs, long island style, in the parking lot and sneak tallboys into the movie" and I was all, "Yeah that sounds super sick."

Oh wait a minute, I'm hella surrounded by little kids and I'm kinda hammered and, did Jen just drop and puncture her beer and now it's totes spraying all over the lady in front of us.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to drink tallboys with kids sitting all around you?

Cut to maybe ten minutes into the flick (in 3D I might add) Oh my god am I crying WTF, I'm totally crying, this is already on my top ten in the first ten minutes.
Cut to the credits, I've already wept on four different occasions during the duration of this film. I am now convinced that this is the best movie I've ever seen. We ditch the tallboys and go to chili's to drink margarita's and talk about how much better this movie was than the awesome passion pit show we saw the night before.
