Well that is some bullshit. I tweeted her asking if the white vinyl will be available at shows, but she won't respond haha

Yeah, yeah gotcha haha. KISS? My dad would've liked that. He was so metal. My parents definitely didn't influence anything but Mac and Neil Young. BUT I was wrong... I have censored ONE song, "Fuck Was I", when I discovered her singing it at the ripe age of 2. Jenny actually sent me a censored version and that's when I knew she was the most awesome musician to ever exist.

I don't think I've really influenced her, she likes what she likes. I just don't censor my music in front of her so some of it has grown on her haha. Her favorites are Rilo (guess it comes with the territory of them being her namesake), Fleetwood Mac, JOY, Mynabirds (Laura is our neighbor) and.... Taylor Swift (*not my fault). If I go to Jenny's show in Chicago, I'll pick up a sticker for you!

YES! I didn't even know that I blogged it, just auto posted from instagram! Congrats on being awesome with the Rilo plays, dude. You seriously have no idea how happy it makes me that I could get someone into them. They've been my favorite since I was super young. You should also check out The Elected if you like "Dreamworld", it's Blake's side band and it's still active.

GOD I DON'T KNOW BUT I'VE NEVER NEEDED ANYTHING MORE. I woke up to that AND to find out she had reblogged me. I thought I was dreaming still, for real. haha.

YOU BOUGHT IT? GOOD! It is my favorite record, BUT check out More Adventurous on vinyl! Extended versions of songs. SO. GOOD.

Oh, I usually go to shows alone... Cursive fans can just be kind of rowdy. But it's a good medicine, for now.

Oh I totally thought I explained my love/hate relationship haha. I'm going to the Cursive show in Lincoln by myself because I'm real moody today. So there's that. What're you up to?

BUT YES, look up Whispertown/Morgan Nagler on youtube. Especially "Blood from Wine" where she duets with Jake Bellows of Neva Dinova and "The Fall".

YOU DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING BUT HER COVER? Oh my goodness. There was this girl next to me that was STARING at me the whole time because I literally knew every word ever. Whoops.

"Dreamworld" is great!!! It was written by Blake (guitar player of RK) and Morgan Nagler (has her own band, Whispertown- SO GOOD. Will be here May 13! Check them out!) Yes, I'm typically up all night. I only sleep every other day. Insomnia, whatya gonna do?

Before, but barely. My parents used to play it, so it was kind of my first favorite band. I discovered Rilo when I was 11. I actually started listening to Fleetwood a lot more after UTB came out, I definitely have observed that parallel. Pretty cool that you caught that :) What's your favorite song so far? (on UTB- if you say "Dejalo", prepare to die).

Oh, no... I'm a pretty solid beer/whiskey drinker.... haha. I'm sure he said it in jest, they're pretty nice dudes usually.

Listen... I tried getting EVERYONE up there. I was the only one for the first few songs. Also, anytime someone is talking to her on stage- that was me being a drunken idiot. Yes, I was the one who went to Arizona also haha.

You have NO idea how happy that makes me. JOY + RK fans are the best people I know. We have to hang sometime. I have "now I'm GOLD" written on my forearm. It's a long story, but it was originally supposed to be "but now I'm GOLD"... but one of the four members of the band wasn't into the idea of being forever imprinted in ink on my arm ha

"UTB" is my least favorite album, by the way. But it's still better than 99% of the other stuff I love. Lyrics from "Silver Lining" are actually tattooed on my arm haha

Nate at Saddle Creek can track pretty much anything down. It's a good shop. I just missed used $1 vinyl, ya know? My favorite in Des Moines was zzz records. "Pictures" is one of my favorites ever. Execution is my favorite album as a whole, however. "A Better Son/Daughter" is kind of my anthem. Always. I'm sure you've heard "Portions for Foxes" SOMEWHERE in Omaha. They used to be pretty overplayed here, I think. You'll likely recognize "Silver Lining" too, from their last album.

How are you liking Rilo so far?!? I'm at the creek shop pretty much weekly. Not too impressed by Homer's or Antiquarium though. I miss Amoeba and this little record store in Des Moines... I was definitely spoiled. What is the next show you plan on going to?

ZooeyLewis
I implore you to check them out immediately. Don't go on about the Death Cab concert, it'll kill me. Seeing the set list alone almost did me in. I've never missed a concert I really wanted to go to and it was ROUGH. Where are your typical Omaha hangs? (aka why haven't we run into each other)

Man, the years go by so quickly.... I remember BFF being together. I have heard "Late". My favorite band, Rilo Kiley, actually have two songs about Elliott as well ("Ripchord" and "It Just Is"). I know other artists do too, but I can't pull them off the top of my head and I'm too lazy to wikipedia it! haha. Did you go to the Death Cab show?

Elliott has a tendency to do that. He's a big one for me, if it isn't obvious haha. I haven't listened to Ben Folds in years, is he completely solo now? Sorry if that's an obvious thing- I've been out of the loop. I think I'll listen to him tonight. "Kate" was who I aimed to be as a youth haha

I feel like it's pretty boring, but thank you haha. I'm kind of really intense about anything Elliott Smith, wonder how many more track names Gotye will rip. Just kidding, I'm sure it's coincidence. I'm just not into his music at all, maybe I'm biased due to my blind fury over the fact that you can't find Elliott in that tag on YT anymore.

No, I went to 5... 4 more than Omaha hahaha. I just have a lot of feelings! She said she'd come back anyway after I apologized about attendance for like a thousand hours. Hopefully she actually does! What other bands are you into right now?

I KNOW! It was the worst show of the tour :( I actually went to 4 others.. whoops. An Unwavering Band of Light has captured my heart. Seriously, I haven't been this obsessed with an album in YEARS. That was an awful night for her to play since there was some Saddle Creek crap going on. (Not that SC is crap, just that EVERYONE SHOULD'VE BEEN THERE!)
