Ben Gibbard and Jay Farrar
January 28th, 2010Saw Ben Gibbard and Jay Farrar at the Showbox last weekend. It was good. Surprisingly good actually. I’ve been pretty burnt out on Death Cab for a little while now — don’t get me wrong, I like their music but I’m just burnt out. This collaboration though — this is something I dig.
So this collaboration is something along the lines of writing a soundtrack to the Kerouac book, Big Sur. I’ve never read it, but maybe I will now. That’s about all I know. Honestly, my wife signed us up to go. I probably wouldn’t have gone without her persuasion (that whole burnt out on Death Cab and Gibbard thing, plus I just saw Death Cab last summer) but I’m glad I did. So go listen to that album if you haven’t. I hear Grooveshark can make that happen for you.
More photos after the jump.
Look at all those iphones getting the shot!
