Piazza, New York Catcher


My night with Belle and Sebastian, and Yo la Tengo, was lovely, and not just because DC was under the high 80s for the first time in a while.  Jessica and I saw them a couple years ago at D.A.R., and both shows were excellent.  My friend Brandon had been wanting to, and didn't go away disappointed.
