Hoofin' it.

Deerhoof's Satomi Matsuzaki.

Last night's show at HG was wonderful. Good crowd, too.

I hadn't seen The Cush on a proper stage in awhile, and it was great to witness them in full flight. Their blend of Spaceman 3-style psych and Sonic Youth-gone-krautrock jamz is only becoming more realized. A fine set.

Deerhoof: What can I say? A spazz delight. I secretly think that everyone loves this kind of stuff, they're just not exposed to it much. A truly joyous sound.

Fiery Furnaces sounded like Yes fronted by Patti Smith. Not as wretched as one might imagine.
