Eve.

I'm sitting here with two new friends, Sunny and Charles. Two dogs that needed a home. They came as a duo. Keeping it short, they are two very fun, adorable and loving dogs. Time will tell if they get on with Nude. I'm trying to remember what were some highlights of the year. I know it's not New Years eve but It just came across my my mind. Some Lost Lake shows have been fun. One notably was the Spirits with Spirits gig at the Aztec Hotel. It was just so fun to be apart of the ghost hunters scene. Swell people.
I think it was this year, maybe not. Abe Vigoda at Echo Curio was fucking so much fun. I don't know if the kids who got bounced by Ben feel the same way ;)Their new album is great! It's my #2 album of the year.

Album of the year for me was The National's High Violet. Going through personal shit always needs a soundtrack. This was mine.
And then the return of the 90's bands. Pavement at the Fox and Hollywood Bowl. I remember thinking they sounded stronger than any of the times seeing them back when they were touring. As Rolling Stone put it "Lots of drunk dads screaming for Gold Soundz" Well, I guess.
GBV was of course fun. Those men will never loose their mammoth love for rock and beer. Tracing had a nice debut a couple of months ago. It's good to not care and over think about music. Fun is the reward. Next post coming soon.
