Generally, I don’t listen to pop music, and I couldn’t tell you what’s played on the radio since the late 90s, but… I like this. And I feel like I have to defend it/assert myself as a serious classical musician for admitting it. So… I also love Shostakovich?

1) Yay! Katy Perry has purple in her hair!

Dear Bon Iver,

Would it have killed you to tune your guitar? Also, has anyone told you that you sound like a hipster-ish Sting? No? Oh, well, you kinda do. (I say this with all the love and appreciation in my music-snobby little heart.)

Sincerely,

Rita
