Our flight yesterday to chicago was cancelled, then we were moving to a flight 24 hours later, meaning we had to make some quick calls and changes to make any of todays bands at pitchfork festival. Right now I’m on a bus to newark. And sadly, I won’t be able to make my goal of seeing Man Man for the 10th time in a year.
Maybe I’ll try liveblogging the performances.
I talked to Ryan Leslie for Paper Magazine. I met him at a studio while he was working on tracks for Jennifer Lopez. His shoes were nice. He insists on dressing up to record in a studio, which I think is really funny.
Talked to Black Lips for Monday's Progress Report on Steregum. I mentioned their studio walls covered in inspirational quotes, but didn't mention that they also put up lots of girlie pictures (girlie is probably not the right word, since that makes you think of tasteful 1940s nude pinups. Pretty sure Black Lips are more the Barely Legal / High Society type).

New Progress Report on Giant Drag. The Giant Drag story got picked up by the NME. Writes Annie: "It's funny how all of a sudden people i haven't talked to in awhile are
calling or texting me about shows or whatever after the article." She's a great lady.
I wrote a Band On The Street on Welcome Wagon for the Village Voice. They are the nicest band in the world, probably because they didn't start out as a band, but as a married couple. I'm working on a review of another couple band. I am sorta grossed out about how cute every couple band is.
Kings of Convenience Progress Report went up yesterday. ØØØ!
