She Can Get It [REDUX] : Anna Prior of Metronomy


I know it's been a minute since any of us posted here last. I can't speak for the rest of the gang, but I've been busy lazy. On the plus side, I've been posting on the mini-site on a semi-regular basis, so there's that. It's even more shallow and vapid than this site, so don't expect much beyond boob pics, random youtube videos, and me bitching about fantasy football.

But I digress, this weekend The Captain was in town and we both had the privilege of seeing Metronomy perform at The Rock & Roll Hotel. The band put on an outstanding show that covered material from all three albums and a rocking good time was had by all. Hell, I'm sure that if you poke around on youtube you can find some videos taken by audience members.

Anyhow, the band has a handful of tour dates left in North America and then it's back across the pond. So, I'd recommend trying to catch them in the next couple of days. Unless, of course, you live in Europe, in which case I say, "fuck you" and also, "can I please sleep on your sofa?"

Now I suppose it is high time that we addressed the elephant in the room...

WE WERE IN THE SAME BUILDING AS ANNA PRIOR! I PROBABLY BREATHED IN SOME OF THE AIR THAT SHE BREATHED OUT! THINK ABOUT THAT SHIT FOR A MINUTE, SON! DAAAAAAAAAAAMN! SHE IS GREEEEEEEEEAT! WAAAAAAAT?!?!?!


Alright, now that all of the histrionics are over, I'll explain for the folks that don't understand what that was all about (read: everyone.) A couple of months ago, I wrote this unassuming little post. Little did I realize that it would go on to become the most viewed post in the history of this shitty, insignificant, blog.

I'm dead serious, dudes. Almost no one visits this blog outside of a few SBSC members that pop by every few months...and that's when they remember that it's even here at all. So it's astonishing that one tiny post would rack up so many views. In addition to that, the stats show that the top three searches that bring people here all have to do with, you guessed it, Anna Prior of Metronomy.

So for all of the folks who have paid the SBSC a visit over the last couple of months (if only searching for information about the talented Ms Prior), thank you for stopping by and I hope that you can catch Metronomy on tour soon.

p.s. and it should go without saying, Anna Prior handles her business on the drums and can totally get it.

If you disagree, then we can't be friends.
