The onslaught continues -- this week's "2vet" playlist (that's what I name the weekly playlist of submissions each week) was 465 songs long. That's a totally absurd number of songs.

I went to a couple of shows in May...here's the first write-up, one more to come some day. Shearwater + Jennifer O'Connor7 May 2008: The Iron Horse — Northampton, MA Shearwater, the Texan indie orchestra headed by Jonathan Meiburg (also of Okkervil River), has nailed the big dynamic surge, the transformation in a breath from breathy Talk Talk-ish imagery to strident rock choruses.
