36 songs one about each of these guys plus a 37th song about the one time they all accidentally ended up at the same party

Please do this, JD, please do this. If you don’t (or even if you do) I may make this my own 37-day song a day project…

— John Darnielle of the Mountain Goats on how a band is the GOOD kind of family

no matter what they say
we’re gonna be okay

We were safe inside;
And our new son cried.

Welcome to San Bernadino.

Piano Sonata #3, Sergei Prokofiev

I.

Thanks for that chord, Sergei

if you play it right you can tell the bartender how much whiskey you need with the two remaining fingers

11 whiskeys.

THANK YOU JOHN

Just got my Tallahassee Turns Ten cassette from Crooked Neighbor in the mail! Featuring, naturally, broadsword and ashtray stickers.

OMG EACH ONE HAD DIFFERENT STICKERS we must collect them all

I had no idea about the different stickers! What did you have? Anyone else? Hope somebody got a peacock…

Tomorrow I am embarking on a project to cover the entirety of The Extra Glenns’ extraordinary first (and technically only, as they changed their name to The Extra Lens for the follow-up) album. Like the original John Darnielle — Franklin Bruno collaboration, this will be a two-man project as I team with a musician I feel is far more talented than me, and who, when he wants to be, is a dead ringer sound-alike for JD. I’m a little intimidated and very excited. Stay tuned for updates and, ultimately, some sounds.
