Seven months, huh? Man, that’s got to be some sort of record…
Anyway, hello! I wanted to share these two songs with you because, well, I sort of owe you, and because I went to see live music on Friday and it made me very happy indeed. On Friday, I went with my friend Chris to see our friend Andy/The Pluto Tapes perform at the Kick-Off Cabaret in Arlington. { There. Is that enough links for you?} The Pluto Tapes were, as ever, lovely and it was great to see friends and to get stuffed with barbecue beforehand. I miss getting out. The dissertation is a terrible beast, which won’t even let me post on this blog. { Please don’t tell it. It thinks I’m just in the next room…} Sitting there, and watching people perform, was a wonderful, uplifting experience after so much time spent toiling away. Of course, it did also drive home just how much I miss living in a place with good, live music. { Notice how you’ve never heard of York, England as one of the U.K.’s premiere music scenes? Well, you would have, if you’d ever noticed York!}
