I have been absolutely obsessed this past week with Iron & Wine's album, The Creek Drank the Cradle. Sam Beam really is something of a musical genius, and I don't say that flippantly. I feel like I float through his lyrical wonderland as his guitars strum their hypnotic melodies in quiet introspection. And this happens each time the CD resets and plays once again, ad infinitum.
Tomorrow is the Stereolab/Air show at the Hollywood Bowl, featuring a full orchestra for the latter part of the bill. This should be a phenomenal show that I've been looking forward to for some time!
Just gotta keep remembering to have fun and enjoy myself.

Cyn and I took that Iron and Wine record up to Northern California and spun it over and over. It's beautiful. You might like "Ghosts of the Great Highway" by Sun Kil Moon too. Actually, you'd definitely like it!

I know! That little problem that prevented me from coming over, by the way, ended up costing me almost 800 dollars. My entire cooling system was shot to hell and leaking. It totally sucked, but turns out we really, really shouldn't have been driving it.
