A busy night last night…went to Lost in Translation with Willis and Lauren then on to see The Trouble with Sweeney. Lost in Translation is an amazing portrayal of the disconnected feeling you can get from traveling. I felt very connected to this theme and thought it was very well executed. Bill Murray was completely amazing in his role. The soundtrack was also very interesting, scored by Kevin Shields of My Bloody Valentine. I definitely recommend this. Afterwards, Denison met us in the lobby to go with me to TTWS and our friends Ethan and Courtney were in the lobby to see the next showing of the movie. Interesting coincidence. Ethan has finished the LP layout for Aspera’s one-sided LP, Back When Love. The Trouble with Sweeney show was completely mobbed and sold out because of their rock prowess (and because Pete Yorn was added as a last minute headliner, but I refuse to believe this). The Sweeney’s debuted with their new drummer Charlie, fresh to Philadelphia from San Francisco and also a member of Tommy Guerrero’s band. It has been far too long for me to see TTWS play and it was great, as always.
I stopped by the p.o. box to collect the mail from when I was away. Love the 24 hour 30th street station post office. Now I have a huge bin of mail to sift through.
