The Fabulous Jon Foreman



I just bought the four Jon Foreman EPs, and they are simply fabulous.
I thought the whole world should know, and therefore wrote this one in English.
Six songs for each of the four seasons. That's 24. 24 is another song by Jon Foreman, recorded by Switchfoot. Switchfoot got their name from an expression meaning to switch your stance and change which foot is the one in front when surfing. Surfing has given its name to the surfing of the Internet, which I am doing now. While listening to Jon Foreman. Which is fabulous.
(I didn't think this chain of thoughts would get all the way around, but thankfully it did.)

If you are the lucky owner of a Spotify-account, check this one out:

And: Tell me if you liked it. I appreciate feedback. ;)

Sufjan Stevens!

I have just been to the most amazing concert, with the most amazing multi-talented-musical genius:
Sufjan Stevens.

He played a long set, with both old and brand new songs, all with some kind of thematic reference to flying of some sort... everything was done with a big set of kite-wings attached to his back. He was himself the Grand Master Chieftain of the Eagles, and he had a group of butterflies that made up his band of friends.

It's hard to describe the experience with words at this time, except that the man must be a genius, playing all the instruments that he does, and writing the complex lyrics that he is also known for.

I'll try posting more later, perhaps a picture or so, but for now, know that I had a REALLY great time this Tuesday night in the city of Oslo.

Right now, I am visiting Erlend, my friend and former bossity-boss.
