Today is the First Day of Summer

…and we have the longest hours of daylight of the whole year today.
Flight Of The Conchords were on Conan a few nights ago and performed a new song for all the Ladies. Check it out here.
Bonnaroo Music Festival came and went. YANP has posted a plethora of reviews and pix of all of the performances. He posted about a song that Regina Spektor performed called “Baby Jesus“, which YANP has up here. It sorta reminds me of that new Tori Amos song ‘Velvet Revolution‘.
I was looking on You Tube for some music by the National, since I’ve heard a few people recommend them. And when I searched National, I stumbled across Sufjan Stevens singing the ‘National Anthem’ in his own style, you could pretty much listen to it and forget its the ‘National Anthem’.
The National just played on NPR’s live concert series. You can listen to that entire performance here.
And in honor of today being June 21st, I give you…
