***TOUR ALERT*** One of my posted influences just announced a World Tour... only European dates have been listed (Stickboy... looking at you). If you want to experience something... well, different... and amazing, you should check Dead Can Dance out if they come to your town. I saw them back in 97 and was completely blown away.

In other influential news, I just secured tickets to see the Beach Boys with Brian Wilson... Check out this video compilation on the making of Wouldn't It Be Nice:



Are we kidding ourselves thinking we can make records like this in our homes? Are we???

Enjoy that ^ I saw Brian Wilson at the Hollywood Bowl with the Wundermints and the LA Philharmonic. He did Pet Sounds front to back. It was tears in the eyes for a good portion of the evening. Happy tears. It was mindblowing.

I fell asleep with the TV on last night. At 3am Kathie Lee and Yoda whatever her name is came on in repeat and they had these young Italian opera singers on. I thought I was dreaming. All I heard were great voices of course, and some very, very nice modulations. If you've got 5 minutes, dig how cool all the key modulations are. Very well done. I mean, the chord progression and melody are already one of the best, but these key changes are inspiring.
