garage band

so, one of my new-ish friends invited me to go see a band from nashville, "everday atlas". she knows these guys from college days, and i was excited to see that they were pretty good. they have a slightly rock-pop vibe, but i am very bad at describing music, so i'm sure that's a somewhat insulting description. but it was actually a fun night, had to schlep down to the LES to see them, but it was worth it. it felt like college again, seeing people play for the true love of music. not that i doubt famous bands don't still love the music, but there's a purity to people who aren't playing for the money and continuing fame. (but maybe they wouldn't mind that either!) ;)
