I am a terrible blogger / predictor / person
17. February 2009

The headers are pretty lame, but I’m sure there is something exciting that hasn’t been announced yet. I am most excited for M83, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Of Montreal, Silversun Pickups and Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head. I am still crossing my fingers for MGMT. Leave a comment with who you are excited about seeing.
