It all starts tomorrow... 5 straight nights of shows to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Merge Records in Chapel Hill. I'm not sure how my body will hold up but I'm ready to find out. The list of bands that'll be playing is too long to remember: Superchunk, Portastatic, Polvo, Spoon, M. Ward, She & Him, Richard Buckner, Lou Barlow, Telekinesis, American Music Club, The Magnetic Fields, Versus... it goes on and on. Then there are the rumors of a Neutral Milk Hotel reunion show and a surprise appearance by Arcade Fire (how could they not show?). My buddy, Clay, is flying in from New York tomorrow for one more music festival before we both take the plunge (he also weds in Sept.). In addition to spending countless hours at the Cat's Cradle, we plan to check on the Merge Cookout and Kick-ball Game on Friday and maybe we'll even tie a few on here in Greensboro.
I'm feeling "Hyper Enough" right now. I'm sure I'll be feeling "Kicked In" by Sunday...
