Today's Quick Mention: Tonight I'll be attending an early
screening of the latest Apatow effort, Funny People, and I'm somewhat
excited. Actually, a better term for it would be cautiously
optimistic. 2009 has been filled with too much crap to be anything
else.
With a lot of nice things being said because of a spot on the Bonnaroo
lineup and a solid new record, I figured it was time I snapped out of it and
jumped on the Jets Overhead bandwagon. Better late than never.
Or, as I always grew up hearing, it's about damn time. No Nations
is available now, and the band is currently gearing up for a tour for later
this year. Enjoy.

Overhead - I Should Be Born:
Unless you happened to not catch any of the hazy alt-rock
tunes that filled the 90s, there isn't much of anything here
that you haven't heard before. But, to be honest,
that's what I like most about this song. Sure, it's
all been done, but that's one genre that I think has yet to
be re-done to death, so it's nice to see acts like
this one who are ready and willing to breath some life into
it after all these years.
