hello hello.  so i got the job i had applied for last week!!!!!!!  Pretty nervous about it since I start in a few weeks and I need to relocate. But maybe this will be a good thing. It's 12 weeks as an intern and if i do well, it's very possible I could be offered a fulltime spot.  i am very very very nervous. 

Officially a Seattle resident on 2/1. Well, technically a West Seattle resident. 

This will be my third time. First was on the Hawk is Howling tour and second was the Rave Tapes tour last year. This should be an interesting experience because they're playing Atomic in it's entirety and screening the film.

I might be taking a trip to Portland and Seattle to see Radiohead in April.

Bought an Emily Reo record after watching Room and hearing a song during the credits... Just finished the full record and she does a great cover of Built to Spill's "Car." Super duper!
So now I'm listening to Built to Spill. So that's even better!

And also me.

Holler at me dudes!

I will be there too man.

Nice. Kind of reminds me of an old Postal Service shirt I have.
 

 

New arm work

hiiii sorry i'm a jerk! sorry this is so late! i've had a lot going on the past few weeks and didn't have a chance to sit down and get this all written up. even now i'm super exhausted and up way later than i should be. hopefully my ramblings below are semi-sensical. anyhow! here we go!
 

there was a lovely note with a lovely tree drawing
(although i might have to fight you over that wonder years dig )



 
-Menzingers - Rented World
-Menzingers - On the Impossible Past
-Menzingers - On the Possible Past
-Brand New - Daisy
-Captain, We're Sinking - The Future is Cancelled
 
(special guest cameo by Jäger. he was not part of the SS package.)
 
ok so Menzingers is a band that i somehow slept on/never really listened to until recently. my friends are all huge fans and were going ape shit over seeing them play at Fest (especially the OTIP set). having never really listened to them and having bands i really love playing at the same time, i wound up skipping most of their sets at Fest. started listening to them a bit afterwards though and wound up going with all my friends to see them play a small club show in brooklyn thanksgiving weekend (which i would much prefer to seeing them at a huge outdoor stage anyhow). for some bands seeing them live is what really sells me on them and def was the case with them. was such a great show. Menzingers has been my go-to Pandora station the past couple months but hadnt pulled the trigger on buying any vinyl yet so super stoked on these! spun them all while cooking dinner last night and fully jammed out. 
 

seriously. such an awesome show. 
 
i actually just bought tix today to go see them again in march when they play here. will be a much bigger venue but a ton of friends are going and some even traveling from other states for it so super pumped! def going to be spinning my new Menzos records a whole bunch between now and then
 
sooooo...i actually did already have Daisy  but no worries. i will make sure i find a happy home and i appreciate the thought that went into it (even if i strongly disagree with it being their “best” album haha  )
 
i LOVE captain. i first discovered them a couple years ago when they opened for Hostage Calm's farewell show here (RIP ). great band. great album. had no idea about the Menzingers connection though so that was a fun fact to learn! i'm always fascinated by the interconnectedness of bands and side projects and back stories so was surprised i never knew it was Greg's brother. pretty neat!
 
there wasn't really much to go off of clue-wise. but the note did make a point of mentioning that Captain is a Scranton-based band and i remember @curator and @shadowkid33 talking about going to the Menzingers show in Scranton...but since @curator also got Rented World for SS (fist bump) and said he didnt own it...i'm going with Connor! thanks so much dude! really appreciate all the thought you put into this. def lmk if you're ever out this way! i owe you a hug and/or a beer  
 
oh. and random side note.  i love Broadway Calls and was stoked to see them play at High Dive during Fest. one of my favorite Fest moments was watching Greg from the Menzingers up front and center rocking out and singing along to all of their songs and having the time of his life. was straight up the most heartwarmingly adorable thing ever.

Good score on that La Sera/Radiation City split — that was part of a series of 7-inches Polyvinyl made specifically for mailorder giveaways, they were never available for purchase anywhere.

I put all the pictures in an album because there was SO MUCH! I opened my present last week, but with work and Christmas and traveling I kept forgetting to get on here and make a post.
 
Thanks so much to @Youinreverse for all of the wonderful gifts! I'm not familiar with all of the records, so I'm excited to dive into some new stuff. Also I forgot to take pictures of the two Bob's Burgers pops and the burger book. I love everything and I can't thank you enough for being so generous.
