The Tallest Man on Earth @ MHOW (more by Kyle Dean Reinford)
Thank you america, and thank you boys and girl of Francis...The Tallest Man on Earth's letter there is referring to his North American tour with Bon Iver. While in NYC, he played Mercury Lounge, Town Hall, Town Hall, and Music Hall of Williamsburg.It's a sunday of grey weather, bored dogs and mending of everything you neglect trying to tune a guitar for a career. So I need a little help today, well I always do I guess, and I found it in a song from a group of friends called francis. Listen to Take it easy here: myspace.com/francisishere.
I'm greatful for december, it was something else. Lovely audiences and lovely new friends. Hope to see you again in march.
Best

I enjoyed the mercury lounge show as well. I tend to not get bored of his album either. He seems to puts a lot of energy into his work and he deserves the positive press he is getting.

Nice, by the way have a look at http://goo.gl/vq3Jx - some positive interesting stuff , ciao. The arc of history is longer than human vision. It bends. We abolished slavery, we granted universal suffrage. We have done hard things before.
