Torquil Campbell + Chris Dumont = Memphis.
For those who love Stars and crave something a little different. Here they are live at Pop Montreal ‘06 doing their thing. All highly recommended, the last even more:

Memphis - I’ll Do Whatever You Want (Live)












Memphis - A Little Place In The Wilderness (Live)












Memphis - I Dreamed We Fell Apart (Live)

I watched this movie called The Squid and the Whale. It was very odd, I didn’t really ‘like’ any of the characters. Kind of Royal Tenenbaums, but without the charm, and an amplified desire for awkwardness.
I did enjoy it.
You’ve probably heard this if you’ve seen Risky Business; it was used well to compliment Frank’s (the younger son) spiraling life after the divorce is announced.

Wha? Why Fitness First? Why you gotta close an hour earlier on a weekday (that isn’t Friday) for no reason? I mean, it’s late night shopping in the suburbs - I can buy some delicious snacks late at night, I could go and see a movie or try on some bowler hats but I can’t sculpt my body?
Wtf. Very disappointed.
Now for some very down songs for the rest of you:

Magnetic Morning (like Film School & being on the verge of passing out in the backseat of a speeding car)
Beangrowers (like The Rosebuds, I Love You But I’ve Chosen Darkness & finding lipstick smudges on your husbands underwear); and
Bon Iver (like Grizzly Bear & a lot of the soft-vocal folk coming to the fore in popular music nowadays)


Magnetic Morning - Motorway











In front of us: a wide valley of green. The sun is shining with glittering rays. The driving strip is a grey track, with white stripes and a green edge. With the radio on from the speaker it sounds: ‘We are driving on the Autobahn’.

Beangrowers - Frenchy











A message to you and me, listen closely: One day you will lose all you have and you will know what it is to be alone.

Bon Iver - Blood Bank










Well I met you at the blood bank; we were looking at the bags wondering if any of the colors matched any of the names we knew on the tags.

Not much to update on: footy training was good, got a game this Saturday at Slacks Creek. ‘Bout a quarter through Kingdom of Fear. And that’s about it, so music time:

Bodega Girls (like dancing, sweating, fucking then doing it all over)
Cut Off Your Hands (like Sparkadia & a lot of other catchy indie bands); and
Cajun Dance Party (like good things and stuff… music)


Bodega Girls - She’s Into Black Guys











Oh, Daddy’s little girl she’s got it alright. Doorknockers, nail-paint, mischief all across her face; she took the city in stride.

Cut Off Your Hands - Oh Girl











Oh Girl, I want to see you tonight. Oh it’s been days since I held your hand you know it feels like years don’t you understand?

Cajun Dance Party - Amylase











Lets not forget lets all forget what happened in the past - you were right you were wrong yeah but everything was fast - and when we build this ship remember to make it last - increase the time it takes to paint and build the mast.
