29 going on 31.

Its a good thing I’m 23.

Sometimes when I cant sleep I let Justin Vernon and Sean Carey serenade me so I’ll drift into a peaceful stupor.

Last month I had the amazing luck to score tickets to ACL Live taping of Bon Iver.

I pretty much jumped for joy and danced around the store I happend to be at. Bon Iver has been in my life since Forever Ago so finally getting to see a full set was kind of incredible.

They played almost all of the new album with notable nods towards For Emma, Forever Ago. However, I found myself favoring the times when the band would hold back and let Vernon do his thing. Hinnom, TX was a perfect example of simple yet effective melodies between Justin and Sean Carey.

I feel like Justin Vernon’s voice in this song would just cause instant pregnancy. Seriously just close your eyes and let it happen.

Holocene, the single for the Bon Iver, Bon Iver did not dissapoint and truly utilized their big band style. The music perfectly corresponds with the message which Justin Vernon described as “realizing how small we are in this big world.” Honestly every member of Bon Iver had chops that would make a Baptist choir look bad. Often I found myself searching for wherever the beautiful harmony was emanating from and it was always a different person. 

Of course Vernon stood alone in the spotlight to play fan favorite Skinny Love. And he ended the night perfectly with his baby For Emma.

After the show I found myself with a serious crush on Sean Carey and also discovered this gem.

Bon Iver is in the garden, singing to the fennel and sugar snap peas. He says it helps them reach their roots deep into the soil so they can grow tall. ‘Someday,’ he says, as he pats my belly, ‘I’ll sing to our babies and they’ll grow roots here too.’ -Bon Iver Erotica Stories

I both looked and felt like this by the end of every day.
