2009 tour dates:

Lawrence, KS Liberty Hall

Mar 17

Snagged 2 ga tickets for one of my favorite tiny venues to see shows.

 

Who woulda thunk the opportunity to see live music would be such a great motivator for maintaining grades for a 12 year old girl. :shifty

 

Woot!

I gave it the first car listen this morning. Really like it. Seems more complex and less spontaneous than the last two. Also, it seems like songwriting/lyrics have less of an emphasis, but that might just be because I haven't caught on to the more catchy lyrics yet. Also, more vocal harmonies (I think).

I'm only just now sitting down to listen to it through...so far, I'm less than impressed but I'm pretty crazy about Eggs and Armchair Apocrypha so fireworks would have to shoot out of my speakers or something to impress me at this point. I'm eyeballing that Tulsa date and thinking I might need to start saving up some dough to go on.

Huh, really? It falls short of Eggs for me (but that is one of my all time favortite albums so I don't expect him to EVER match that), but I think it's much better than Armchair. Armchair felt like it was written on the fly while playing with his looper. This one feels like "real" compositions (for lack of a better description).
