we're out West!  we made it!  even Tom's pedal steel made it! 
we're sitting in the Sunshine!  Jared is wearing white heart-shaped Sunglasses!

we saw Pitchfork wrote something about our album(s) - a mixed review, if you will - which lots of you Kind Kind People n Former Lovers took as a personal affront - which we appreciate!  but there's actually a lot of good stuff n Truth to what they say, too.  generally speaking, we think Pitchfork is pretty smart.  and we're not just saying that because, as goes the Wisdom, they could Make or Break us!  they've already Broken us, so that's no concern!  yay!  permission to speak Freely, therefore!  S. Deusner's a good writer, and his description of the Music We Make's pretty Accurate, actually -- tho of course we do have a different interpretation of Why we do How we do.  more on that soon, hopefully.  ironically, far from his intentions it would seem, Stephen has inspired us to Make MORE Words, not Less!  we'll have them to you Soon as we Articulate'em within our own Minds…until then, become Hepped on the Latest here at Da Fork

meantime, Life Outside goes on All Around... we're psyched fr the upcoming KEXP visit next weekend in Seattle!  To celebrate, here's a Free Podcast from them they were kind enough to put one of our songs on!  Enjoy it!  call em!  Tell em how much y've been Enjoying it!

finally, then, in the News Much Bigger Than All of Music category, there is: Barack Obama.  and no thing and no one else.  except Everyone.  Join us, this Wednesday, 15th of October, at The Independent in San Francisco.  gonna be a big fun Blowout to raise a few bucks to get some hardworking volunteers out to swing States, get some minds turned this way…oh, and the Headliner is awesome – trust us…

ever,
tUs!

p.s.  ha ha awesome – well, at least there's That One we can all agree to agree on, you crazy ‘Forkers…

In the realm of P4K that is an obnoxiously solid review (look at what they said about the new Oasis album)! über kudos! Have fun on the west coast y'all...

I actually find you, Jesse, to be an excellent lyricist/wordsmith/sing-songer. but im sure the pitchfork dudes band is way better.
