“I introduced myself to John Darnielle after his performance at this summer’s Pitchfork Music Festival, and this conversation happened:
Darnielle: Have you heard the new album?
Me: Yeah, I just got it.
Darnielle: What do you think?
Me: I’ve only heard it a couple of times; I’m still processing.
Darnielle: Do you have a girlfriend?
Me: Yeah, she’s right over…
Darnielle: I hope she leaves you. Then you’ll understand it.
He was joking. I think.”
I love this.
