Now, to direct your attention elsewhere:
I missed this, but Pgh. Music Report is here to tell you about David Bazan (formerly Pedro the Lion) playing a few house concerts in town next month.
And HughShowsRedux has some cool photos of GNS rehearsing as they get ready for the release of In The Impossible Tension. I'll echo Hugh on loving the record. And I'll get around to reviewing it before the release show. Promise.

Am I the only one who finds it strange that the entire GNS album was written & recorded by two members, essentially reducing the others to backing musicians in the touring band?
You're definitely not alone. I thought that was pretty odd myself when I read the liner notes. I chalked it up to the difficulties of living in different cities and not having frequent access to studio time. That said, I do think the songs are as strong as any they've recorded yet. And given the recording scenario, I'll be interested to see how they translate live with the full band.
