Andrew took me to see the Glands and the Shins last night.* Although the Glands' opening was kind of meh (disappointing, since they make good music), the Shins. Rocked. Out. There were two Great Things about it: the first was how innocently wowed they were by how many people wanted to see them (and by their impending Austin City Limits session); the second was the singer's incredible voice, a clear-as-a-bell falsetto that was right on, every time, and which caused even the men in the audience to shout out in empathy and amazement. Seriously. It rocked. I have never heard a voice like that before, it's euphoria-inducing. If you haven't listened to them yet, you ought to.
*thankyou thankyou
