Scott found this weird geocoding issue, where google is returning “Феърфийлд” instead of “Fairfield”. I guess phonetically that’s correct, but kinda odd.

My relationship with my cofounder went from just being friends to seeing each other all the time, fretting over the finances and cleaning up shit. And the startup was our baby.I summed it up once like this: “It’s like we’re married, but we’re not fucking.”

Playing tourist in SF today.

I love how the google maps label for the zig-zag part of Lombard Street (just to the right of the blue dot) is all scrunched up.

Sarah Harmer w/ the Weakerthans - Gone For Good (Shins cover)

David started out Pedal Steel Week with the Weakerthans, followed by the Shins’ original version of this song, so I thought I’d round out the week by bringing them together.

Inserting a break will truncate your post so readers need to click “Read More” to view it in its entirety.

Any of us who used LiveJournal know this as , and that’s fine: I didn’t really use it then, and probably won’t use it now. But, while Tumblr’s at it, it’d be great to get (link to other users) and (to build quick polls).

Santo & Johnny - Sleepwalk

Okay, I don’t know if this is actually a pedal steel or not, but it’s the song I always think of, so I’m making it my first contribution to David’s Pedal Steel Week.

Monsters of Folk - Losin’ Yo Head

My co-workers were skeptical about the Monsters of Folk show on Thursday; turned off by the thought of three hours of “folk” and swooning Conor Oberst fans. Well, the fan-part might might have been true, but the concert was fantastic: jam-packed of songs, full of energy, and sounding great. It was cool to see everyone swapping instruments throughout the show, and running the gamut from quiet & acoustic to full-on electric rocker, complete with synth - like Losin’ Yo Head.
