the band band of horses

So I guess I'll just start every time by apologizing for not posting anything in like a month. Quick recap: holiday break was nice. There aren't many people who rode more in 2 weeks than I did. I've felt pretty boxed in since I got back. And I miss throwing snowballs for Maggie's dog. But since I got back I haven't really done much but work.

Last week, however, I was able to score prime tix for Band of Horses. I wasn't too familiar with them, but their new album has been getting a lot of buzz. So I scooped up a copy of Cease to Begin, listened to it for about 2 straight weeks, and looked forward to the show. I should also note that I was able to score tickets in the balcony box. Oh yeah, and I should also note that I was in the very front corner. There was some debate if we might be able to spit on Band of Horses from where we sat. While there were no cameras allowed, I was able to snipe a few pics with my phone (yeah i have a phone with a camera now. its crazy!). The pics don't do justice to the seats.




And while you're at it, check out Band of Horses. They have a good sound that they are able to convey live, always a good sign.
