One lovely old tune, and then a few cuts from the brand new album that just dropped.

Demons - The National
Don't Swallow The Cap - The National
Sea of Love - The National

What a lovely, depressing, delicious experience. First and Second listens are done. I feel like I'll need about 10 more until some of this soaks in. Highly recommended.

Good weekend, and a day off on Monday. Listening to All Songs Considered "Moving On" podcast.


Ramble On - Led Zeppelin
Out On The Weekend - Neil Young
There's No Home for You Here - White Stripes


and from Tuesday, following the landmark passage of marriage equality by the Delaware Senate, which after being signed by the governor made Delaware the 11th state to approve same sex marriage. Of course I posted my support for this in a public forum and got quite a bit of kickback, some of it on the ugly side. So this section is aimed primarily at MN, LN, MM, BW, SS, and any other closed-minded, Homophobic, self-righteous bigots.

Fuck You - Lily Allen
Gimme Some Truth - The Beatles


I'm out for today. More to come.
