Tonight: The lovely Joanna Newsom + Robin Pecknold.
I want to make out with Robin Pecknold’s voice…and him. The man has my heart.
How ideal is this concert line-up?
there are so many things that are not okay and that will never be okay again, but there’s also so many things that are okay and good that sometimes it makes you crumple over with being alive. we are allowed such an insane depth of beauty and enjoyment in this lifetime. there’s so many joys that do not assist in the propagation of the race or self-preservation. there’s no point whatsoever. they are so excessively, mind-bogglingly joy-producing that they distract from the very functions that are supposed to promote human life. they can leave you stupefied, monastic, not productive in any way, shape or form. and those joys are there and they are unflagging and they are ever-growing. and still there are these things that you will never be able to feel okay about; unbearably awful, sad, ugly, unfair things.

Joanna Newsom - Soft As Chalk
I think this is one of my favorite tracks from Joanna Newsom’s new 3 CD album, Have One On Me.
