Trial Garden - With Diligence and Attention

That was really something. Absolutely stunning.

I gotta say, I really don't give a shit who John Edwards has sex with.

Ms. Y, will you be at the Louisville show?

Happy birthday!! And get well soon! I'm sure Radiohead will make you feel better, anyway.

This thread has shown me just how many albums from this year I still need to check out.

I think the point of the Gleam EPs is that they're quiet and acoustic...Bob's not even on them, is he? Do it!! It IS worth it.

Yay, Vanessa!! Hope you had a great birthday!

So cute!! Congrats, Jenna (and Uncle Brad)!!!

Yay babies!!!

I do actually like The Ballad of Love and Hate. I'm a total softie, though.

Agreed - I still prefer the first Gleam, but this sounds great so far. I love the Avetts' lyrics...so earnest and sweet and clever (a lot of the time)! Listen to Solace - you need to: 1) hear more than just Emotionalism (even though I love that one too) and 2) see them live ASAP!!

I'm proud to be a member of that group.

I wasn't implying that.

Nice. Also, don't knock the Hot Eats; that chicken strip basket with gravy is something else!

Is "trailer court" Canadian for "trailer park"?

Edited for offensive content in the quote. Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

I've been watching the first season of this on DVD, and I can't get enough!

Same here.

Welcome to the Lollapalooza stage...Barack Obama?!

Happy birthday!

It is a great song, but I can't stand the voicemail in the middle of it. In other news, live Avetts on Friday!! Edit: Sanguine is the best song on The Gleam, IMO, and probably one of their best songs overall.
