this is my favorite sun kil moon song, foremost on my "dream karaoke" ipod playlist, and possibly my favorite song from either "them" or the red house painters. mistress is a real contender though. interestingly, i learned of mark kozelek's projects back in 99ish, when my then band co-founder described my voice as like unto his. it's never sounded a close fit to me, except around the edges. but the feel of the tunes is downright family. one of my favorite musicians, no doubt about it. thanks for calling it to the surface!

I can hear the similarity in the voice, for sure. We ought to listen to more music together when I visit instead of me clamoring on and forcing you two to participate in podcasts :)

Would love to do some dedicated listening soon! That's one of my favorite things I used to do all the time that I never do anymore. Bon Iver is playing in the background as I type though, and that's really massaging my soul, even while I'm paying it no active attention.

We can take a break from podcasts if you want, but not for long! We've really been enjoying the process, and getting to be a part of the experience. We were both agreed on this after watching the new episode. Nice work, by the way! I like the visual harmony with the accounts. Props to Steve!

Yes, props to steve indeed. Alright, good, I am glad you two are getting annoyed by the podcasting. It's nice to have some in person interviews/conversation happening on them.

Ah... Bon Iver, good stuff. I met the drummer in Durham once. Nice guy.
