October 17, 200619 yr HEADS UP! Sufjan is going to perform on Austin City Limits (ch. PBS in the US). He is listed for Nov. 4th, but it's best to check your local guides. Nov. 4: Sufjan Stevens followed by Calexico Two of the underground rock scene’s most creative artists perform. Critical darling and indie rock sensation Sufjan Stevens brings his orchestral folk/pop to the stage in support of his latest album The Avalanche. Highlighting its latest record Garden Ruin, Arizona’s Calexico dazzles with a unique blend of traditional songcraft and Southwestern roots music. :nice: I look forward to this...
October 17, 200619 yr ME TOO! except it doesnt show it on my local pbs station yet.. *sigh* CMON PBS!
October 17, 200619 yr No prob Marisa. :) In my experience, PBS airs their shows at different times in different parts of the country....just keep checking. TLo, I'm in love with your avi/sig ensemble! I wouldn't say it's an 'overdose'...that has such negative implications. Let's call it a Sufjan Fiesta! That sounds better, doesn't it? :dance:
October 17, 200619 yr A fiesta??? :sombrero: LOL. But for real I really want to be more familiar with Sufjan. Right now I really like "Romulus". It's so cool. I know all these cities! being a Michigander can be a good thing once in a while. :)
October 17, 200619 yr :sombrero: Hey, wait a second........ I see a resemblance! Sufjan is down with the fiesta idea. :P The song that I can't stop listening to is The Lord God Bird. I honestly put it on repeat for hours. I love the story that brought it about as well....
October 17, 200619 yr anyone agrees that Majesty Snowbird is the best song he's ever written? i'm obsessed with it, totally
October 17, 200619 yr Yes. And I'd go so far to say it's one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard. May sound silly, but it brings me to tears everytime. It's so sweeping and powerful. Me = Obsessed too.
October 17, 200619 yr wowweee so much activity in the sufjan thread and its not all me! YAY!!!! :D and yes id have to agree - majesty snowbird is hauntingly beautiful. i keep watchin my youtube video of it. and obsessed doesnt even begin to describe how i am with sufjan's music lol :P
October 17, 200619 yr & thank you for the avi/sig compliments. i think im gonan post more so that i can see it more often hahahha
October 21, 200619 yr Well I'd love to talk about Sufjan... If only I hadn't been too late to get tickets to his show here! :cry:
October 22, 200619 yr when i ran into sufjan (i use "ran into" very loosely.. i saw him at a My Brightest Diamond show and i just essentially sat there gaping) a while back he was wearing a serena maneesh t-shirt. it was nice and snug. :)
October 25, 200619 yr just 8 days now til i see him in manchester, hurrah! as long as he plays that dress looks nice on you, i will consider it 20 pounds well spent. Nx
October 28, 200619 yr I've had of his music very often, but never gave it a shot.. But today, I watched an episode of The O.C. and his song "For the Widows in Paradise, For the Fatherless in Ypsilanti" and I got goosebumps right away.. It was like "love at first sight" with this song, this artist, this music.. Gorgeous!!
October 28, 200619 yr just 8 days now til i see him in manchester, hurrah! as long as he plays that dress looks nice on you, i will consider it 20 pounds well spent. Nx YAY! i am excited for you! and somwhat jealous but more excited! its gonna be amazing! take pictures if u can :)
