Song: You Were A Kindness
Artist: The National
When I found out that The National had a new song that had been released, I was puzzled, confused, excited, giddy, and 100% completely pumped. With High Violet coming out not that long ago, I thought why would they release a new song? But then I got my wits about me and thought, “Why the hell am I trying to analyze this?!” I should just be grateful that we got it! They (some old guy who probably knew a lot) say that “To err is to be human”. So what does that make The National?
A whole lot of love – Blake

FYI-The National show is nearly, if not officially, SOLD OUT. Get your tix soon if you still can.
Better believe that we picked these up during pre-sale. After seeing them in Philadelphia there was no way I was missing this show.
This is like Christmas. In August.
I’ve had tickets to see the National twice and been screwed out of going both times. Maybe some day…
