The Shins Like Jonathan
Longtime readers might recall that I am a huge Jonathan RIchman fan.
So it put a huge smile on my face last night when The Shins delivered a cover of 
Someone I Care About [rhapsody link] during their encore set at The Theater At Madison Square Garden.
Here's the video, sorry about the lousy picture and audio quality.
Jonathan Richman is one of my top 5 favorite artists of all time. There's something magical and endearing about his music. I love his music in an opposite, yet somehow similar way that I love Morrissey.
If you haven't already seen it, you should check out the "Jonathan Richman: Take Me To The Plaza" DVD on Netflix:

That's awesome, I love the Shin's and Jonathan Richman. I saw the Shin's two NYE's ago (2005-2006) at the Falls Festival in Melbourne and they were awesome. I can't wait till they tour their new album down under, i've heard amazing things about it live.
