...when I'm 64?

Yup, I've actually been puttering around the house, drinking coffee and reading the Sunday paper. I am getting old.

I'm also listening to the third Boston show Pearl Jam did a few weeks ago -- where they performed their entire catalog over three dates -- and am stunned by the version of "Fortunate Son" they do as a duet with Sleater Kinney. Fucking amazing.

While I'm shilling for female-centric tunes, go out and buy Juana Molina's Segundo right now. Its sleepy, dreamy and textured beats blend in perfectly with Molina's girlish yet just-woke-up vocals. I can't understand a word of it but that so doesn't matter.
