1. Saw Vampire Weekend at 8PM an at emusic event to promote audiobooks. Now that you know that, you can guess that their set was pretty quick and pretty basic. Nothing more than the dudes playing their songs in front of some people. Of course, that they write great songs helped things. They played a new song tonight that was really pretty.
2. Went to the Black Lips show at Bowery at 11PM with a heavy head. My mood improved and I got lost in a song or five, just bobbed my head and jammed the fuck out. I gotta say, if there's anything still subversive about white boys playing twangy R&B in 2007, it's that these four bros have the BEST time just being their skinny little degenerate selves. They are a band in that way that to picture them doing normal things just doesn't compute. They are Rock and Roll in the present tense. All the time. At least they were last night for 50 or so minutes.
