Many thanks to those who stopped on by The Libertine last night for the fifth installment of The Local Hang. Yep, that's right, our fifth, which, if nothing else, proves that if you and Libertine owner Simon McDonald reach a drunken agreement, he will hold you to it for no less than five months.
Surely, I kid. And I do: These have been a great time for me and, I hope, for those who've come to hang out as well. Seems we're even developing a new wrinkle of bands showing up with songs in tow, ready for me to play--a trend I welcome--so they can gauge the room's reaction. To that end, we debuted nine new tracks at last night's event--songs from Midlake, Sarah Jaffe, Smile Smile, Jonathan Tyler & The Northern Lights, Johnny Lloyd Rollins, Fizzy Dino Pop, Kirby Brown, The Hope Trust and Sir Silky. If you missed out... well, yeah, you missed out. But you can still see what songs I played, if there's any solace in that.
