Pickathon. Whoa.
I just got back from Pickathon, and my brain is pudding right now, so I won’t even attempt to talk about it at the moment. But I’ll say that the sets with Loch Lomond and Jolie Holland (all four of them!) went amazingly well, and I never thought I’d have so much fun with thousands of hippies and folk musicians.
Here’s a video (courtesy of Dave Allen and Pampelmoose) of the first song in the Jolie Holland set. For those curious, it’s the leadoff track from her upcoming album on Anti-, The Living and the Dead, and it’s called “Mexico City.”
