CMJ Day One

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Alright so its on again.  CMJ.  This time I’m taking a thousand fucking vitamins and eating Pho for every meal.  My piss looks like predator blood.

I’ll still probably die though.

Last night we went to a show that didn’t call itself a CMJ show, but totally was.  Washed Out, the dude my friend Shane has been like the one-man-street-team for, and who is really great.  Last night was his second show ever, his first NYC show ever.  It was a blast, and I can’t wait for a whole week of music like this.  Also, I got an HD Flip cam, so my pointless video coverage will be in High Definition.  Yes!!!  Check out two Washed Out tracks below…the first one was more minimal with a buddy of his onstage singing and playing keys.  Then he did “Feel it All Around”, the only song of his anyone really knows (that i referenced in a touchy-feely blog post a few weeks ago…yeah? so?  I was hungover).  After that we got picked up in a Jetta cab doing 90 down the Williamsburg bridge blasting Backstreet Boys.  It was awesome.

Tonight, a Leonard Cohen documentary and a My Friends Are Playing A Show You Should Come show.
