Skinny Love by Bon Iver

A folk/blues track, Skinny Love, by a man called Bon Iver, from an album entitled Jon Emma, Forever Ago. Nice track, a grower. Reminds me of Thomas from Denmark & Sons of Jim. "And I told you to be patient/and I told you to be fine/and I told you to be better/and I told you to be kind".



Bon Iver performs Skinny Love on 16th May 2008, Later with Jools Holland.



Another live performance, this time at the Independent, San Francisco courtesy of la Blogotheque.

Vogue Theatre, Sacramento Street, San Fran

The above photograph is of the Vogue cinema in San Fracisco and was taken in 1998 (see the advertised screening, Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan). I love the lomography effect and Holgaesque aesthetics of this photograph. The bright blue of the sky juxtaposed with the faded, low hue of everything else. Great example of attractive art deco architecture too. Just a wonderful atmospheric polaroid.

The Vogue Theatre was built in 1939 and is a single screen theatre, with a seating capacity of 240. It is located on Sacramento Street in San Francisco. Below is a September 2007 photograph:

Below are photographs of the theatre in its original condition, 1939:
