Lowdown: Built to Spill at HumBrews TONIGHT
What day is this? Oh yeah!
While Fortuna and Blue Lake return to everyday joy levels after a week’s worth of rodeo and “folk,” respectively, Humboldt energy seekers can keep their trip going Monday night at HumBrews where freaking Built to Spill are playing. That’s right! A very good indie band is playing in your little rural neck of the redwoods on a Monday, you lucky so-and-so!
Should we now watch a clip for Built to Spill’s song “Never Be the Same” off their album Untethered Moon released earlier this year? Yes we should! And we gonna!
