Awesome. Happy B-Day DF. If you and TB are there, that cinches it - I'm there! Get there early for a dinner at Central Kitchen just across and down Mass Ave a block?? I hope you and TB will drop me a PM. Hey, maybe motors could motor down from the green mountains?!
PS. Fleet Foxes...no words...incredible...I have to post separately.

I would have liked to come out and do Stereolab and the Wedding Present, the Weddoes were going on late so fans could go to both shows. But, alas, artists I want to see most always seem to play Boston on nights I have school. And unlike the first time I was in school, I actually attend my classes.
Looking forward to Robyn Hitchcock performing I Often Dream of Trains and other Phenomena at the Somerville Theatre on Nov. 21.

A snippet of one of their encores. Can anyone identity this song btw?
It was awesome meeting everyone last night! And thank you for treating us to dinner Blir!
ps Blir's punk rock outburst was one of my favorite moments at the show [:D]

You'll note that it was a single short but hopefully potent outburst. It now takes me awhile before I can have another full-on outburst. [:I]
And man, someone was quick on the trigger with pictures. Cool...
