Save The Peking

This year's Seaport Music Festival lineup is now posted here. It's a lot like Bonnaroo without the mud and stink, plus this one comes in eminently manageable doses. (A dictionary.com search of "managable" asks me, "Did you mean mana gable?," then informs me that mana gable isn't a word either, idiot.) Saw a pint-sized Erin McKeown perform last year and commented that she's a little firecracker; Mikey describes former New Schooler Sufjan Stevens' show last year as "haunting." (He's hung over, and Bob Barker's been 'haunting' him for the past hour..)

The critical information: outdoors, free, sea-cooled. I'm penciling in Ollabelle and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (Gothamist interview here). Any thoughts on the rest of the lineup? Anyone up for repainting the side of the boat to reflect the more culturally sensitive "Beijing"?

    Check out Sufjan's bizarre/amazing rendition of the Star Spangled Banner he performed at the seaport last year...

    Don't hate me 'cause I trackback.

    And furthermore, download the semi-titular track from Sufjan's Illinois album, "Come On, Feel The Illinois," here. (c/o teachingtheindiekidstodanceagain.blogspot.com)

    I've put those on my virtual e-calendar with email warnings appropriately timed. Why don't I see any Sufjans on there?
