Greetings underground music fans! Like most of you, I was just re-reading Pitchfork for the sixth time today and saw it reported there that those crazy dudes in the band Neutral Milk Hotel (Wikipedia says that those dudes are Jeff Mangum, Scott Spillane, Julian Koster, and Jeremy Barnes) have decided to massively extend the tour that they started to announce this past spring. And at first I thought, like, “maybe they just never finished announcing it the first time?” But I did a little bit of asking around, and nah, that’s bunk. This month-long jaunt around North America in early 2014 is a totally new and special thing. Maybe you didn’t know this, but they don’t really play out very much. The Jeff dude is like Val Kilmer in that Doors movie or something; doesn’t like crowds, I guess!
Either way though, I’m a huge fan of independent rock, so I am pumped for this. I bet you are too? If so, let’s find each other on Twitter. Can’t wait to sing along to my favorite song(s) live and in person. Especially “The Fool.”
