Footage of Thurston Moore listening to music by the recently deceased Maryanne Amacher. I find the honesty of this video incredible. You have a performer and a listener, and that’s it. Music is the mystery of the cosmos that exists between those two entities.

our love will destroy the world
Our Love Will Destroy the World is Campbell Kneale (who used to perform under the name Birchville Cat Motel). He played in a bus like two weeks ago. It was parked on San Bruno Avenue off of 15th St. underneath the highway. I like how at the beginning of this video all you can hear is the highway, but it could have conceivably been part of his set.
It was a good show. I listened to some old punk dudes talk about how all they listen to now is trance, and there was a guy that showed up with a bunch of beer for everyone.
