WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Mid 30s Upwardly Mobile Music

Posted over 2 years ago
Have you ever listened to some music and felt like "Man, am I ever getting old."Recently someone shared with me some Yo La Tengo, which is a husband / wife / drummer group from Hoboken, NJ. A true hipster band which formed in the mid 80's way before there were hipsters. Growing up in Jersey, I knew about them peripherally, but hadn't really paid any attention to them until hearing "I Feel Like Going Home". Wow, just wow. I really liked what I heard. So much so that I did purchase the whole album (see, music sharing works!) and I want to see them when they come to Philly in October. (Screw waiting for a date, I should just get the tickets...)And in the meantime, I will be here sipping my white wine, looking at the pottery barn catalog while listening to some Yo La Tengo on the stereo streamed via AirTunes. I feel like an upwardly mobile white girl in her 30s...oh wait...

  1. deadmandeadman says Yo La Tengo constantly finds new directions within their sound. Ever inventive, sometimes they seduce and sometime they bludgeon, either way is fine with me. Their Cover of "Little Honda" is to kill for.
