SXSW: So, a quick one before bed...
It's almost three a.m. and I just got in. Yoko Ono and the newest incarnation of the Plastic Ono Band took the stage around one and played, I dunno, forty or fifty minutes (a standard SXSW showcase set, plus a nonstandard encore); I hung out a bit afterwards to wait for the door to clear, which turned out to be an awesome decision: Ono and two of her bandmates returned to the stage for an impromptu song. One of those two bandmates, by the way, was a young gentleman named Sean Lennon, so that was especially special. But anyway: this was the end, more-or-less, of SXSW; there are a few final sets tomorrow evening but it doesn't look like there's anything I want to see, and that's great because I have to be at the airport around five a.m. Monday morning. So I'm just checking in, here. And sorry for any breathlessly dubious formatting: I'm using an app that doesn't like paragraph breaks. Hope you've had a great weekend. Cheers.

Of course, how could you not love an album that contains songs like Shroedinger's Cat and Dark Matter, White Noise?
