To Watch: The Naked and Famous
Tuesday 07.27.2010 09:23PM
I don't write very often about bands, for whatever reason. Perhaps I should do that more regularly.
Anyway, I mention that because when I do write about a band it means I'm really enjoying them and think they are worth your time. I discovered The Naked and Famous today at Suzi's recommendation and I am loving “Young Blood”. Musically and lyrically I find it very compelling. The video is rather awesome, too. There is a youthfulness to it, and it sounds hopeful. I love the synth-y string sounds.
Check it out for yourself:

I have several possible captions:
“I know, can you bewieve it?”
“You know, lots of people go to college for ten years.”
“You can stop asking my mom about this now, Jean.”
“Purdue University should be replaced with ...ladies”
Feel free to add your own. :]
Cornerstone 20Ten

I don't think I have blogged for several years about Cornerstone. I'm not sure why, it's one of my favorite things each year. This was my 14th year attending and it was a refreshing time. This was perhaps one of the best weather years. It was low 80s, breezy, no rain and at night it usually got down into the 60s. Usually there is rain at least one day, or temperatures in the 90s, or a tornado, or something. Not this year.
A crap poem

(but it suits how I feel)
Untitled
Say one thing
And do another
Yet held up on this pedestal
When really just a hypocrite.
Disgusting
How many times
Tried and failed,
Disappointment.
How many thousands of times
Before we just admit
We're fooling ourselves?
