Black Cab Session: Jens Lekman


Seeing Jens last year at SXSW, at Emo's, was a highlight of last year's trip to Austin. And I've been keeping an eye out for all things Jens. And I'm sure you are just DYING to see/hear him sing "Black Cab". In the back of a cab. That's black. So here, you're welcome, it is really my pleasure.

What you are not a fan? Well how about Ryan Adams? Death Cab? Bon Iver? The National? To each, his or her own, I say. But please do check it out. There are plenty more to suit your tastes. I love the idea of this site, take an artist, put them in the back of a black cab, and let them sing a song as the world rolls by.

One day, I too will come up with an idea so ridiculously simple that all the world will bow before my genius. Until then, well, at least we have each other.

Dead Milkmen Reunion Show- Austin, TX

I know, they're not coming here to STL, but this is a big deal! Austin's fun fun fun fest takes place November 8 & 9 and features a host of bands: The National, ALL, Bad Brains, Atmosphere, Trail Of Dead, etc. See them all here.

But really, who wouldn't be excited for a Dead Milkmen show? Especially if it looks to be a one-off? In Austin? Here's "Punk Rock Girl" to get me pumped up, wishin' I was going to be there:


Get your bitchin' camaro on the road and get there!
