Stalk Of The Town

Donte is taking advantage of cheap post-holiday travel by heading down to SFist territory to see Lindstrom's only west coast date on this mini-tour, since Where You Go I Go Too was one of last year's best releases.

Don't get Seattlest wrong; we had a great time all weekend at Bumbershoot. How could we not love the mountains of garlic fries bigger than our heads? The sweaty, pimply teenage boys with their curly shagged hairdos and their overly made-up girlfriends in message t-shirts? Most importantly, and less sarcastically, how could we not get super psyched about a weekend of rainless weather in Seattle and an opportunity to discover loads of local talent about which we had previously been unaware? We couldn't! That's why we spent the whole damned weekend putting up with the sweaty, stale beer stench and the long bathroom lines. Because we heart seriously good music.

We hate to sound cynical and old, but my god! Day two at Bumbershoot felt a lot like a tenth grade field trip to white people's rock and roll camp. We ain't dissing the kiddies, but when we head to the overcrowded, sweat-drenched beer gardens just to be amongst people our age, it's worth mentioning.
