FF + GB + Brooklyn Phil @ BAM, Feb. 28th

[Ren]

Yay pictures! I hope someone asked Michael Christie (the conductor, I noticed his name in the caption) if he makes good cookies. Also, why are all the pictures of the orchestra just of the strings? Why?

this picture of Nico makes him look so old! I am used to photos of him looking young and impish and either ecstatic or terrifying. I wonder if that is a celeste that he is playing?

Here's some links to press/blogs that I bootlegged from the Grizzly Bear site (obviously focusing more on the GB side of the the event)

yeah, it was fun and I can't wait for... (shhhhhh!)

Wonder if we're ever going to find out what exactly the "shhh" meant. I sure hope we were forgiven for the whole pancake smother'en incident and that it didn't change things...
