Stick up for yourself suuuuooooooooon, never mind what anybody else done

This past Spring I joined Ponytail on the Yeasayer tour, it was magical and amazing. Every night jammed out to the new and old Yeasayer songs from the merch table and back stage wings. This song gave me power every single night, to trust my instincts. I had forgotten about this amazing song, but this video reminded me of how excited I am for this album.

The quality of this video is great, and it pretty much accurately shows a trip on mushrooms. If you haven't see the video mix up PLEASE do yourself a favor and check it out here:

In other news, it sounds like I am touring the west coast with Dustin Wong and Matt Papich (Ecstatic Sunshine)! I am going to mouth kiss California in April of 2010.

Capture My Imagination: A Glorious Dawn, Carl Sagan

I'm sure you know about A Glorious Dawn being released on Third Man Records, the recording of the Voyager golden record:

Perhaps the most romantic and hopeful project undertaken by earthlings. I have preordered my copies. It is so inspiring and beautiful to have a group of dreamers come together and create something with playfulness, sincerity, and joyful wonder. In contemporary life we try to control so many things, and are not free to be free. But there are glimmers of freedom with this record, an understanding of what can be and if not, that's fine too.

Above all wonder, joy, sincerity and intent and their infinite combinations are the most powerful energies in the universe.
