last night i headed over to the hook, in red hook, with some friends to see broken social scene (they were playing a private party for tag team). not that i need constant reminders, but, this was one of the nights that reminded me of how much i love new york, life, music and, of course, free stuff (which last night included, but was not limited to: blueberry beer, brie and watermelon).
broken social scene was amazing. they didn't play this one, but this is one of my favorite songs of theirs:
lover's spit.mp3 - broken social scene
bravo silva has a residency coming up at pianos in july (check out their new song on myspace, it's my favorite of theirs and i'm so glad they recorded it!). the last night of the residency, july 19th, raising the fawn is playing. this is john crossingham, from broken social scenes, other band. they played movable hype last year. now they have a new album coming out, but this is my favorite song from their last one:
gwendolyn.mp3 - raising the fawn
How did you find out about this??? I never even heard they were playing otherwise you wouldn't have been able to pull me away from it! Grrr.
