sister cities

I'm incredibly proud that Seattle's sister city is Reykjavík in Iceland.

"your brown eyes are my blue skies"

Warpaint and The XX at The Paramount in Seattle September 25th, 2010

The show was wonderful. I didn't entirely know much on Warpaint except that my friend/co-worker, Andrea, has enough love for them that the world could not hold. So she had to pass some of that love on to me. Warpaint is one of the many girl bands that should be respected. They have soul, and more talent than most mainstream girl bands/singers in general. And I'm absolutely picky about music.


The XX weren't amazing. They played the good song that everyone likes (Crystallized), but their music wasn't enjoyable live. Props to them for using special effects during their set though.
