That was a great read. Love the part about the airport. I’m the same way.

Please don’t wait so long between bloggings, it’s nice to read what colleagues (well met, poorly met, or in this case, never met) are up to, and the secret pleasure of reading the thoughts of an artist are, like reading a poorly bound Dover edition of somebody’s letters, just while it’s happening, so with *NEW* *Fresh* *Added Relevance!*

Eating apples in the silent train car–is it, as long as he’s not open-mouthed and truly seriously outrageously loud, really that bad?

What Liam Said.
Your last paragraph is a thing of total beauty, yea, Astonishment. Will take it to <3, go choreograph those bagatelles, and make Louis Horst proud.

Would anybody care to fight over music reviews and “indie-classical”?

Generally speaking. The thing is, as with most things Sufjan has a big hand in, that many of his fans credit him with all of it which I don’t think is fair. I think it’s a shame that having his name on a project often overshadows everyone else involved. But ah well.

And no, no meanness implied! I just know Pluto is old and used to sound differently so I wondered if that was the case for some of the other songs.

Hi Nico. I was wondering if you could break down Planetarium a little bit.. as in, who did what? I know the words are Sufjan’s but did you do most of the string/trombone arranging? Also, since I know Pluto is an old song of Sufjan’s, are there any other songs that were dredged up from the past and just dressed up a bit differently for these shows? Wonderful stuff all around. If only y’all were bringing this to NYC!

[No thanks, that doesn’t sound fun at all, a diagram? A credits list or something? Also “dressed up a bit differently” is kind of mean, isn’t it? Also what does it matter who did what? All that matters is that you have a NICE TIME LISTENING. And thank you for listening!!!]
