Keep the Car Running

I apologize for slacking on the blogging. Things have been extremely intense the past week with work (ugh) and Coachella (yay). Yes, yes, I made the trek to the extremely hot desert of Indio, California to see some awesome outdoor performances. Overall, the experience was fun times, like always. So fun, that I'm still recovering.

Performances I saw (some the whole set, and some a few songs):

Tokyo Police Club. Amy Winehouse. Silversun Pickups. Arctic Monkeys. The Jesus and Mary Chain. Interpol. Bjork. Hot Chip. Peter Bjorn & John. Kings of Leon. The Arcade Fire. Girl Talk. LCD Soundsystem. The Rapture. The Roots. CSS. Lily Allen. Air. Teddybears. Rage Against the Machine.

There were many that I wish I had seen, but due to conflicts with other bands, I couldn't. Oh well, there's always next time.

For your enjoyment, here are some photos I took.

The Greatest

April 2007 Issue of I-D Magazine. Great cover and an awesome photo of singer, Cat Power! We can actually see her face. Normally she hides behind her long, straight bangs (which I totally covet).

A Perfect Combination

There have been internet rumblings that Zooey Deschanel is singing on one of Jason Schwartman's songs for his upcoming album. On Jason's myspace page, there is a song called "This Old Machine," which features a girl that people believe to be Zooey; and of course, the picture above is posted on his myspace so it just has to be her.

I cannot express how much I love these two people! They are freakin' adorable! Their collaboration is seriously a match made in indie heaven.
