i respect the tunings. i wonder if it's annoying to have to switch guitars/alter tunings for every song. i guess it helps that they only have like 12 songs.

kozelek had to tune a lot when i saw him, but he had a band when i saw him. he's a one guitar fella these days though. i think probably another reason that in the past koz has done different sounding renditions of songs live is bc he didn't want to have to tune his guitar again so he'd just play the song in whatever key he was in.

yeah def- i'd pay a lot... like U$S60... to see and hear the koz complain about my hometown and insult me between songs while he's tuning

I respect Low's dogged commitment to dgdgbd. Chord fingerings in that are hella annoying and awkward, but it kinda gives them their sound. They wouldnt sound like the same band in standard.

The first "indie rock" show I ever went to was an Owen show around the release of the first record. I wanted him to sign my cd (lol), but I was too nervous to go up to him. My girlfriend at the time took it up to Mike and got it signed for me. I shouldn't have let her anywhere that sexy motherfucker. Anyway, he signed it "Dear Steve, stop being such a pussy."

I wonder if I still have that somewhere.
