i guess it's actually welsh alt rock night here in windsor. ontario. we have a london, too. windsor is basically south detroit. no royal castles, here. except the old al capone mansion....

i go to lots of shows, right. but, a lot of it is stuff i'm just checking out, or have passively explored a couple of times. there's only been a small handful of shows i've been to this year that are bands i'd actively call myself a fan of.

- tortoise
- son lux
- melt banana
- ....& the joy formidable, early next week.

this is going to be the first time i've had the chance to really see them in a dedicated show format. so, i'm a little excited.

they have a new record, and it's plenty good, but this is probably the best starting point. i've been listening to all three of them over the last few days....
