let's make some illinoise!
I have just returned from my 3rd trip to Nashville, and as one of my friends mentioned, there has never been a time that we have spent in Nashville that was bad. This last trip might have taken the cake. The reason is this man right here:
Friday night, Caleb, Jon, Derek, and I went to a Sufjan Stevens concert. Although it seems that only 50% of the group liked the show (Jon and I), all of us had a great time. Sufjan and his band came out in cheerleading attire and lead the crowd in cheering for different places and people from Illinois. It was pure excitement and orchestrated brilliance rolled into one. The songs were moving, yet they gave a show like none other. The song I liked the best was called "The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us". It starts out slow, but as soon as the trumpet parts hit you, you feel washed away by the strange sadness of the song. The whole show was excellent and I will be glad when I get to feel the joy of Illinoise again!

Hey man, I'm still on a rush from that show. Can't stop thinking about it.
What's up with those spam comments btw? They happened almost as soon as you posted.
