My new favorite Cure song:

Close to Me

And Novocaine for the Soul by Eels

That's my favorite Cure song too. We covered it at the Blind Pig in Ann Arbor back in 2009. As I recall mk was at that show and I think you can actually catch him and gq in the video for a brief moment:

That's really excellent. The second song in the video is great too.

Side note: Do you have a day job? If you do, how do you have time to spend on making and playing music, making podcasts, and running hubski (and also being a father, I believe?)? I would love to get some productivity tips from you.

You know, I've never thought of this before, but you're making a very good point and asking a very good question. I know tng tends to run on enthusiasm and has a great natural store of it, but I'd like to hear more (if there's more) too.

Eudora by The Get Up Kids has a cover of Close to Me and a song called 'Anne Arbour' on it.
