Setting Sun

I just came across a new blog... MVSW. I'm not quite sure what it stands for, but I like what they post....In any case, I am stealing a link from them so you guys can listen to a song they posted haha. How Long by Setting Sun. It's real good! You can visit their post to stream the song or download it below..I have yet to figure out how people are posting songs with the flash player... I need to look that up. Anyway, here's their post:

Setting Sun ~ “How Long

“How Long” sounds like Conor Oberst playing covers of Dinosaur jr songs. Setting Sun is the brain child of Gary Levitt who also plays in Quitzow and is based out of New York.

Foo Fighters in Seattle

Ladies and Gentlemen! DAVE GROHL is a ROCK GOD!

Never in my life have I seen such an incredible rock show.. From the moment the first notes of opener "Let It Die" began, I was in some form of Heaven on Earth.

They played July 9th at Key Arena, home of the Soni....oh wait, nevermind. Anyway, Foo played some hard-rockin' tunes, a few acoustics, the hits, the emotionally moving songs..... Oh man, I can't even find the words to describe how absolutely beautiful this show was.

I will never forget it, I can promise you that.

Read the PI's review: http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/pop/370249_foo10q.html


Setlist
[Main stage:] Let It Die - The Pretender - Times Like These - No Way Back - Cheer Up, Boys (Your Makeup Is Running) - Learn To Fly - This Is A Call - Long Road To Ruin - Breakout - Stacked Actors
[Acoustic stage:] Skin And Bones - Marigold - My Hero - Cold Day In The Sun - But, Honestly - Everlong
[back to Main stage:] Monkey Wrench - All My Life
[Encore...the 5-song encore:] Big Me - DOA - Generator - Aurora - Best Of You

If I had to name favorites I would say the 1st three songs were stinkin powerful and blew me away.... Also Long Road to Ruin.... Skin and Bones was absolutely beautiful.... But, Honestly (I took video of this one--will post soon!)... and Everlong.... Best of You...

Okay, so I basically loved the entire show. You get the point.

In conclusion, Dave Grohl is a head bangin, power-house, god of Rock. Goodnight.

Joy

Svefn-g-englar by Sigur Ros Listening to this song, the thunder in the wide sky, the rain lightly drip-dropping outside the window... So peaceful.

I wanted to share this song with you, whoever you are. So here is the incredible music video performed by the Perlan Theater Group. It's beautifully done; an unexpected joy to watch!
