David Byrne's new live E.P. is spectacular. You can download the thing from his website (www.davidbyrne.com) and it benefits Amnesty International. The thing pretty much came outta nowhere... Wonder if we can get it up on Think Indie? I hope he releases a full-length of this show on vinyl. Subscribe to his journal while you're there. It's way more informative than Lefsetz, although that thing he wrote about Kelly Clarkson was on point.

We're still mightily pleased about the press and praise that Think Indie digital is receiving. Thanks for all your support. As I've said, we have more surprises and releases down the line. Please stop by and take a look around. Feel free to buy something too.

I'm excited to hear this Church album. I love that band.

Onward,

-- jim.
