Alright, love 'em or hate 'em, everyone needs a strategy for surviving the holidays. For me, I'm going to take it day by day, adapt, like a chameleon. The Von Trapps are coming over for a sing-a-long, no problem, I just remembered I have to run to the mall for a last minute item real quick, where I will sit at Starbucks with my laptop for an hour. Insert nosy relative's name here wants to have a one on one chat about where your life is going, no big deal, confess to not having a life plan and grab some more pie. But even with this bullet-proof master plan in play, I've decided to nail down some specific tactics to ensure a Happy Holiday. So:
Okay, they're not exactly new, having been around since 2004, but they're new to me. Four girls from Silverlake, hypnotic and psychedelic, intricate weaving of guitar, bass, drums and vocals, and a little dissonance as the cherry on top. Needless to say, but I will anyway, I really like them. Their newest album is called The Fool, check it out.
Don't worry with dysfunction running rampant through all those warm and gooey family holiday moments, I've got more strategies to come. Stay tuned folks.
