NO JOKE.
I have been bestowed with one of the most insane honors of my life by The City of Austin…
February 9, 2012 will be proclaimed “Shakey Graves Day” in Austin, Texas by the Austin Mayor.
I am scheduled to perform a song in the council chambers at City Hall at approximately 5:30…
Holy shit this is awesome! YES YES YES!
I’ll be drinking bathtub gin and screaming at the moon. SEE YA THEN!
Definitely liking this year’s better than 2010. And I’m sure it will only continue to grow on me. Last minute or so is pretty great. :)
So I’ve been making a playlist to go along with the book I’m writing for National Novel Writing Month and one of the songs that I’ve chosen from my hard drive is this single by Aska called “There are Many of Us.”
Listening to it reminded me of the amazing short film by Spike Jonze called “I’m Here.” If you haven’t already seen the short, you can find it here. Just enter an age above 21 and you’ll be told that a screening is starting every two hours. Originally this was because you had to wait for a screening, but now I think the movie starts whenever you want it to. I have to admit that sitting in my room and watching this movie as though I was in a theater was an incredibly surreal experience (and one that I thoroughly enjoyed), but I don’t think the film will be lost on anyone for lack of it.
Seriously, watch the movie. It’s brilliant.
Finding out about this video and seeing it for the first time might have just made my day. Holy shit, I love Doctor Who. Lol.
