Good times. I’ve spent the last two nights seeing my favourite band in the world. I’m talking, of course, about Spoon. They opened for Guided By Voices on Wednesday night, and headlined their own show last night at the venerable Horseshoe Tavern here in Toronto. I was able to arrange an interview with chief utensil Britt Daniel last night and hope to have something put together soon to put up on the site. Jim Eno, drummer supreme, was kind enough to provide me with his setlists both nights and they’ll be finding their way onto the setlists page as soon as possible. Pardon my boundless enthusiasm, but if you’re still in the dark about this amazing band, you need to see the light. You can scoop up many free and legal MP3s here and here and here and here. Oh, and all you lucky people who own one of my Compilation Champs CDs, their new stuff is even better than what you’ve already heard.
Despite the unemployment, a nice couple of days. And both my Leafs and Raptors won last night, too!
