Bicycle. My wife came up with an ingenious way to decorate a wall in our house. We’ve had a few different pictures since it went up, but the bicycle was the first.

Looking forward to the release of Outer South…
Difference Is Time - Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band - Outer South
Bob Dylan put together a backup band that was so good, they eventually went on to make some amazing records on their own. Many say that Conor Oberst is the Bob Dylan of today and he has also put together an amazing band. This new record features a bunch of songs written by the Mystic Valley Band and though I don’t have any liner notes (the record isn’t out yet), it seems that this is one of them. It’s certainly not Conor singing. But this is a fantastic song.
Listen all the way to the end. The guitar work on this song is fantastic and the solo that ends the song is amazing.
