Incredible show last night in Brooklyn. Having spent countless years in underground clubs and random venues listening to bands who have been influenced by SY, even I somehow forgot how precious the real thing is. To hear the guys absolutely nail songs from an album that floored me back when I listened to it on an old tape player was nothing short of transporting. The seamless transition from Daydream Nation to Rather Ripped represented a melodic and temporal leap that no other band on the planet can or would even attempt on stage. The precision, timing, stage presence – just epic. I normally wear earplugs during shows – I was compelled to take them out and really feel what was being transmitted to the crowd.

We need to get that anarchy ordinance passed in Brooklyn.

Thanks for coming to see us, guys; and reminding us how high the bar sits.
