i see a great summer in my future (music rambles)

Okay, one awesome perk of living in good ol' Utah, and something I look forward to every summer, is the Twilight Concert Series.

First of all, you can't beat an outdoor concert on a summer evening with friends.

Second of all, each show is $5. Yeah, that's right, $5.

Third, they always have at least a couple really good bands. For example, in the past I have seen Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Band of Horses, Iron & Wine... see what I mean? They're like, amazing bands.

But this year, they have certainly out done themselves. I was almost in tears when I saw the line-up. This summer I get the pleasure of seeing the following bands LIVE.

Belle & Sebastian

Blitzen Trapper

Youth Lagoon

Grizzly Bear

MGMT

Sharon Van Etten

and..

wait for it...

wait....

THE NATIONAL. 

One of my all time favorite bands. I can die happy now. 

And this lovely concert season begins this Tuesday with Daughter.
