A Weekend in the City

The title reminds me of the Bloc Party album, which brought me to this live version of "I Still Remember"
and now you've seen it too. Funny how that works.

Here are some photos from the party I went to Friday night to celebrate the opening of the new wing of the MFA. The new wing is bewildering. In a good way. I think I'll have to go back about 10 times before I really get the new lay of the land.

They're ridiculously good live, so if you're a fan and they're going to be in your town, you should really make the effort to check them out.

Well worth the $25 (or whatever I paid) to see them.
