misshape'd fur coat


jenny lewis may have been spinning in style at misshapes on saturday night, but what you didn't know was that my review of rabbit fur coat (which i wrote two weeks ago, go figure) finally ran in yesterday's daily.

i am in the process of booking all sorts of spring break mayhem, including jackson hole for skiing & cold-hot tubbing and of course a visit to bema in "del boca veesta, flawrida" (pronounced like a real midwesterner). helping me do this are the wonderfully serio-comic sounds of jens lekman and the electro-dreamy electric president.

*fabulous nostalgia = an uncovering of very special brand new demos from their supposed 2006 release. word is these tunes are not going to be on the album (that's been in production longer than g n r's chinese democracy), but at least it's some sign of life.
