your pretty black bow

Three things you should know before reading about this week’s song:
1.) I LOVE the EELS. They are amazing.
2.) E is the primary member of the band, and he is amazing.
3.) A capo is a clamp one attaches to a guitar to raise the pitch.

With that being said, I was listening to the EELS, and it seems that E always capos his guitar pretty high. I thought I’d try it higher up than usual just to change the sound a little. I wrote part of this in the morning and the rest very late at night. Traffic noise, city noise, etc. can be annoying, but I was thinking about where everyone was going and why they were making these noises. And then it didn’t seem so bad. Maybe it’s just the holiday spirit or something.
