I'm just picking random stuff on youtube today. I did notice different (better) styles of singing on different songs. Sorry, I fail at music research. I'll keep listening and see if I can get acclimated -- it took me a while to get past Jonsi's vocal quirks, so I may be able to do it.
I miss talking to TomAz.
We all do. I live in the same city as him (unless he relocated) and rumor has it that at 3:15am if you listen closely and its really really quiet you can hear him telling you to go fuck yourself.
How well do you think the Tucson show will sell? Do I have time to wait until Calexico gets their shit together and announces their thing?
I think the lyrics on the back half of the album are better than the first half, but the song structures aren't as wild and out there. Also, at least on Peach Plum Pear and Swansea, I really dislike the production or lack thereof. Peach Plum Pear's overly tracked vocals drive me nuts, since the lyrics on there are so damn good and it's hard to pick them out.
Tickets for Phoenix went on sale early.

5th row section A. Should I take it?

The Phx one was early. I bought one. What the heck.

Nice grab, Matt.

I am glad I got to the Orpheum Ticketmaster page early; that link was live at least 10 minutes before 10. I pulled 3 tickets in Sec A (middle) row 3 on the aisle on the harp side. I am damn pleased with how that worked out.

I just purchased a Rialto show ticket and grabbed 1st balcony row A seat 17. Looks close to perfectly centered. Win!
Now when does the Calexico party go on sale?
I got Ys the other day (thank you, Bryan) and listened to it on the plane to San Francisco yesterday. God damn, why couldn't this be happening on another weekend? "Emily" in particular has lodged itself in my brain. Think I've gotta take the plunge on her latest disc. You folks are lucky you get to see her live (again, for a few of you).
I expect to be in Tucson by 5:30pm. It looks like i'm coming solo at this point too.
My sister in Marana (just North of Tucson) just had a baby so I am going to try to finagle a ride down early to visit and then meet up with folks and catch a ride back.
Or maybe I'll drive myself, too and we can all have separate cars!

I have your number, Matt.
Edit: extra ticket is gone
