...you can't sink the titanic...
the willow house was a fucked up little house we used to call home while we were at tyler school of art together. the house was condemned by the city. now we're all scattered all over the place, far from willow ave. i thought this might be a good way for us to keep in touch and share music and whatever projects we're working on. maybe also give each other a kick in the pants to make art or whatever.

i gotta say that times new viking is the first pitchfork approved, cool-kid rock band i've been able to get behind in a LONG time. they kinda remind me of huggy bear. i've been listening to them non stop for like a week now.
man you should have seen them they are great live. this was the second time i saw them first was when they opened for the clean. the girl in times new viking gave me multiple dirty looks because i told her friend to be quiet as he was talking so loud at the front of the stage you could hear more of him in david kilgour's mike than david kilgour. times new viking is such a great band i dont even care that the lead singer thinks i'm a jerk. i'm still a fan.
yeah, i debated checking out the show, but i figured it'd have been super crowded since that venue just opened? plus, i had plans last night anyway... they're an NYC band though, right? i'm sure they'll be back...
yeah, tc! it was great to see you!!
dan'l, wish you had come out, (i just got into philly about an hour earlier, and r & i decided to stop as we were riding our bikes back to his house from chinatown) it wasn't too crowded! robert and i are headed out to see blues control/dead c tonight at johnny brenda's... any of yous dudes gonna be there?
ps- i think times new viking sound a lot like superchunk.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I didn't care too much for Times New Viking's live show. I saw them open for Wire and the female keyboard player was just not doin' it for me. Don't get me wrong I love the recordings. She is cute and all, but somehow charmless on stage and her "rocking out" seemed like a mom "rocking out". ...and her vocals didn't translate to the live performance and just came across as weak. I really wanted to like it, but just couldn't go there. Also to note: Wire is the most bitter band in the world.
