Jenny Bond.
thanks for all the mentions of Broken Social Scene. Now listening to their album, good stuff!

My friend got hit by Broken Social Scenes tourvan while he was cycling in amsterdam... they ended up taking him on tour to play violin. haha

Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth tonight - really small venue.
When I see Arcade Fire - it's a day long thing. Arcade Fire, Blonde Redhead, LCD Soundsystem and Les Savy Fav. Wickedo!
Yay Jude. Sonic Youth were brilliant a few weeks ago at the Roundhouse. I think I'd better see "The Go! Team" in Bournemouth next week. Its a while before the Decemberists. LCD Soundsystem are very good live, even though its not really my thing.

Unfortunately I'm a twit and thought I could just get a ticket on the day. And it was sold out. D'oh.
British Sea Power and Menomena in Nov - this brainy power trio taps into the infectiously experimental spirit that drove early-’70s prog-rock landmarks like The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway...
...the unofficial fourth member of the group is a piece of software: Deeler, a computer program written by multi-instrumentalist Brent Knopf, who calls the app a “glorified guitar-loop pedal.” Knopf and his bandmates create patterns with Deeler that become foundations for new songs; the technique gives their material a rhythmic thrust unusual in indie rock, where groove isn’t often in the heart.
