These Blue Boards Keep On Creakin' Creakin' In My Head

We saw Frog Eyes at Johnny Brenda's on May 17th.  Man, that was over a month ago.

They were just as amazing as I thought they'd be.  Amazing.  The first time I heard Frog Eyes I thought, "What the hell?!?!"  And the second time.  But then they started growing on me.  I was completely won over when I discovered their songs have names like:

The Fox Speaks To His Wife Who Is Not Quite Sure

Krull Fire Wedding

Silence But Not For The Gentle Tinkling Of The Flowing Creek

The Horse Used To Wear A Crown

Our Lordship Has Devised A New Billing System

A Library Used To Be (Black Hole And Its Concentrated Edges)

I'm Telling You That Cities Were Never Ever Conceived Like This

See, how can you not love a band that so thoughtfully and completely names their songs?  The answer: You can't not love them.  Also, the chick is the drummer.  I love lady drummers. :)

If you're interested, my favorite album is The Golden River.  Love it!
