Sufjan wearing his great big swan wings. Dunno why when you upload stuff to flickr the quality and blur level get even crapper :(

7 year Anniversary of seeing Suf live for the first time. I miss that tour.

Here it is: Best stuff first

Extremely handy if you follow a lot of people and hate missing anything good. 

Best Stuff First moves the best stuff on your dashboard—mhm!—right up to the top. 

It’s rolling out this week on iOS and Android, and comes with this Help Center article.  

Thanks! ✌️

Here it is: Something nobody asked for

I have no idea what this is or who any of these people are but if their plastic surgeons are watching at home they should be damn well ashamed of themselves. 

Do these poor women melt if they stand near a lit fireplace. Jeez

I’ve never been to Montreal. Maybe if I can scrape the money together I can go to this 

http://www.brooklynvegan.com/2-giant-leonard-cohen-murals-appear-in-montreal-where-an-lc-exhibition-is-also-opening/

“Le Musée d’art contemporain in Montreal will present a tribute to Leonard Cohen starting 11/9. The exhibition will include visual and performance art, and it will run for 123 days. In addition, the National, Sufjan Stevens, Moby, and more will participate in a series of tribute concerts hosted by MAC and Pop Montréal. The full show program has yet to be finalized”

UPDATE

Apparently misleading info. was released. They won’t be doing a concert it’s just a cover song. I’ll stop saving up for a flight and ticket now then.

I needed to see something uplifting today and this popped up in my youtube subscriptions and made my week.

About the Sufjan Stevens Live Archive

We are a not-for-profit, fan-run archive of live music by Sufjan Stevens. We will soon start posting and cataloguing all recordings we have collected since the early 2000s in the highest quality available. We’ve decided to start this project because a lot of this material has been slowly falling out of circulation over the years - or it is being circulated after being transcoded, posted on YouTube, ripped to MP3 again, and so on. By providing a permanent place for them, we hope to prevent these recordings from disappearing or becoming unlistenable after decades of lossy conversions.

If you have an upgrade for a gig we have posted (or an entirely new recording we are missing), we will be very happy to host it.

Lastly, this site contains no commercially available music, and we encourage the purchase of all of Sufjan’s studio albums. This is in line with this comment by Asthmatic Kitty’s John Beeler: “I’d say do whatever you like! We have no interest in hunting down bootlegs. As a personal opinion I think they’re great. Thanks for your support. It’s so appreciated.”

I’m trying to get my head round the fact that my country seems to be overwhelmingly populated by incredibly stupid xenophobic racists. I’ve never been so embarrassed of my country. 

This whole referendum has been depressing as hell. The aftermath if the vote carries on going to the leave EU side would make me want to leave the country and live somewhere else. The funny thing is I won’t have the option to do that any more.....

This is complete and utter bollocks. Good luck America when it’s your turn in November. Racist fuckwits are taking over the world. We’re all completely and totally fucked.
