undecided

I went to see Alexi Murdoch at the Mercury Lounge the other night. There’s just absolutely something I love about seeing live music - a guy battling on stage armed with nothing but a guitar and a clever rhyme. It’s one of the greatest sources of creative inspiration for me. A good performance can give me that Saturday morning “I can take over the world” kind of feeling like nothing else. Alexi’s smooth, soulful style made braving the cold worthwhile, and the set-list-free set (”because it isn’t interesting when you know what’s going to happen”) reminded me that I need to go to more shows.

The banter quote of the night, “Contrast is the path to a long life.”
