Walter TV – Carpe Diem
Ten tracks in length, Carpe Diem is said to show a band that “has taken their version of lo-fi recording to a near professional level (or at least attempted to).” A taste of the new sounds of Walter TV — which of course features members of Mac DeMarco’s band — comes alongside the announcement via the uplifting “Graceland,” which you can hear in the player below.(Exclaim!)
hello
G’day. Not here today, the Laurentians. Have a good one!
Hello hello! Enjoy the Laurentians, Benoit! A beautiful slice of Canada for sure!
Good morning!
Hi Benoit, Where are you in the Laurentians?
Oh BTW – I finally received my t-shirt! Yeah!
Looks like i single-handedly killed the blog with one comment, let’s see if this resurrects it…
Hey all!
Glad you got your t-shirt and blog killing happens to us all Wynnsie. It takes work to keep it alive!
I am going to head to Queen City Ex tonight and go to the Zolas/July Talk show. It should be fun!
this was supposed to be a fun week; taking friends on a week long VW tour and kayaking and then going to Kalso Jazz Etc Festival. Instead we rerouted our tour due to fires, the camp my daughter is working at is near another fire about four hours away from home and there is a big blaze near our town too. I came home early from the VW trip because I threw my back out. while holding on to ice packs i am trying to collect extra stuff that I would not normally take to a musical festival as I am treating our van as the emergency evacuation kit. I am feeling a little sad for myself.
Awww sorry to hear morgana. I hope they get those fires under control and everyone stays safe! Sore backs are no fun either. Healing positive vibes sent your way!
@darbar thanks for the healing:)
does one go and empty their safe deposit box if the town might go up in smoke?
I don’t know how that works. Are they fire resistant?
that is what i was wondering.
i am going out shortly to top up my medication prescriptions so i’ll bike by if i have time …
Morgana, stay safe, I hope your summer plans aren’t disrupted too much more by the fires, and that they’re under control soon. Also, take care of your back, I hope the ice packs and medicine helps!
In theory the safe deposits boxes and vaults of the bank are designed to be fire proof, but I’m not sure I would take my chances with the contents inside.
Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Is that how it goes?
Seems like a pretty good plan to me 🙂
@janet
thank you for your thoughts
i am almost finished feeling sorry for myself. there are so many with so much less and far larger troubles than i.
time to get my head on and get a move on!
@Morgana, I have been keeping an eye on the BC fires through the online maps. I am glad to see you are still safe.
A couple of my Polaris updates. They asked me to do a write up about Leif Vollebekk for the Gala program. Yikes! It is due tomorrow and I have done a few revisions of it but will look at it once more before sending it. I also have made my first recommendation for 2018 Polaris of Walrus – Family Hangover.
I liked Walter TV up there. Thor I need to try another day.
They were the only 2 releases I could find for today
