mason proper

we had a mad time at sxsw this year.

WARNING: thank you overload to follow.

big big big thanks to every single person who came out to the shows (especially those from michigan[!]) and made us feel like we are spending our lives doing worthwhile things.

still more thanks to hot freaks, pirate, tangled snark, and homeslice pizza for having us at their stellar parties, and texas music cafe for the fun time in waco.

special thanks to darryl, luis, elizabeth, and everyone else who planted themselves prominently in the front of the shows and sang along.

sorry to anybody who came out to the parlor saturday night to see us (because we ended up not being able to do it)… we had to cancel a few hours before for reasons beyond our control, and had no way to get the word out to you.

thanks to everyone at dovecote, and carter in particular, for making it all possible.

thanks to shivvy and heggie for the brain warpage.

thanks to wefuse for the fantastic food and personality that brought us back again and again.

thanks to shannon and my lucky stars for creating a scenario in which i met one of my favorite musicians of all time and made him laugh.

thanks to tim williams, ed harcourt, everthus the deadbeats, via audio, health, the dirty projectors, graham coxon, monotonix, jason lytle, maps and atlases, and a million more that i just can’t think of right now for the amazing shows.

thanks to everyone i can’t think of right now.

thx to the skies for raining down nothing but beautiful sunshine.

thx 4 the free taco.

hope all is well.
