Some Songs Considered at XX Merge

I’m in my hotel room in (very warm) Chapel Hill, NC ready to head over to the first night of Merge Records’ 20th anniversary celebration.  I’m super excited for five days of music and music fans.  I’ve been blogging about Merge Records bands all week (Conor Oberst, Neutral Milk Hotel, and the 3Ds so far this week in addition to Destroyer, Portastatic, Arcade Fire, Camera Obscura, The Shout Out Louds and a Superchunk “More Songs Considered” post) and will continue to write about Merge bands and my experiences here through the rest of the week.

If you’re in Chapel Hill and attending XX Merge too please come say hi!  The best way would be to follow my personal account on Twitter @bwall05 and send me a direct message.  I’m looking forward to meeting some awesome people at these shows and it would be cool to meet you too!

So if a post goes up a little late (or, to be more accurate - really early before going to the Cat’s Cradle), please forgive me.
