his solo show was cancelled in 2004 at same venue. this'll be amazing..
Evil Urges
is disappointing
really?
I'm resisting the leaks, but from all I've heard, it's great if you can get past the first three tracks first time round...
it is initially disappointing
But for all i know it will be brilliant after a few weeks.
it took me roughly a year to get into It Still Moves and now it's one of my favourite albums full stop.
truesay re: It Still Moves.
Waaaaah
Same night as Animal Collective + Sunset Rubdown and the MMJ gig is when I'm on holiday. Damnit!
