Вопрос: Я очень мечтаю встретиться с симпатичной девушкой. Времени после работы абсолютно не остается, а в свободные дни очень часто заставляют также бегать по разным инстанциям. На улице знакомиться не хочется. Сейчас на сайтах знакомств встречаю только продажных девушек. Предложите решение этой проблемы, пожалуйста. Заранее огромное спасибо !.

What i didn’t expect las night at Bunk was such a tight well-rehearsed band and such a beautiful singing voice. thanks so much for doing it, sometimes it looks to me like a hassle, hauling shit around, you know. anyway, your dedication to expression really shines through. really nice set.
sweet. yeah getting kicked to the curb directly after playing was kind of a bummer. like, where’s my green room with the coke and perrier?
Hey just discovering you on pitchfork. Didn’t know you were from Sioux Falls! I’m still living the dream over here. I’m heading to Pitchfork Music Festival in July and see that you’re going to be there- looking forward to your album and seeing you live
peace and love from Sioux Falls
hey that’s awesome! totally repping SFSD til i die. very happy that you got a hold of me, makes me feel good.
definitely see you in july!
Hello, saw a Video of your live Performance of Grey ship in Berkeley. Amazing! Is there a Chance to see you playing in Hamburg (germany)?
just did berlin! maybe in the fall…?
Where can I download “Kind Hearted Woman”? Love what I’ve heard so far! I hope you stop in Minneapolis when you go on tour!
hey yeah! i think it’s on iTunes? for hella cheap! like 99 for 20 minutes of music or something… definitely looking forward to minneapolis. can’t wait to go to the walker and have my uncles take me fishing!!!

Thanks! I just ordered your “Soul on fire” 7″ from Insound.com … totally bad ass!!!
First heard about you from the UK press, somehow before your album has been available here. Finding your songs one at a time have given me a chance to appreciate each one on their own, and I can’t wait for the full album. You’re doing stuff american music needs, don’t stop.
I fucking love your music video for California.
I fucking love you, even though you’re 5 inches taller than me, it’s okay with me, lets get married girl.
i would consider a domestic partnership.
I just listened to California and I have to admit you grabbed me right from the beginning with your opening line. The song rings true with me in a way, as I moved from a small town in Indiana to Philadelphia and seem to be experiencing similar frustrations. That’s probably all old hat to you tho’. Keep doing what your doing. The music is great.
Ta for the interview yesterday, it’s reading well, just transcribing it. I’ll send the links to it & the gushing review when it’s up this weekend.
Sore head & cramps today, doll… too sunny you know?
I’ve just came back from Mackbeth… You will never know I would merry you:)
Great concert, and I think you need a bigger venue. Good luck

Only just heard your work – just as your UK dates are winding up. Gaaaah – you’ll have to come back here now, hope you do soon.

Listened to your album today: it was amazing. Thank You for putting it out there. Searching for it on vinyl now. Patti Smith would be proud. Keep fuckin’ the world up, and finding the beauty in the darkness (and telling us your tales). Hope you make it Boston, and if you are bored, we run a basement venue and would love to host your talent…maybe get into some trouble.
I travel a lot for work and PLMS sounds heavenly at 30K ft in the air. Thanks for the most bewitching release this year…
Your tunes are amazing, I can’t even tell ya. Kinda think you should come to the northeast for a tour(Toronto, Buffalo, Rochester, Ithica)! I would totally love it! So fantastic.
You have stolen my heart miss. Thank you for making music!
I LOVE-LOVE the album. I hope you can plan a tour stop Raleigh, NC!
HintHint: King’s Barcade is a great venue, plus they are serious about their beer selection. Live music there is always a pleasure.
BUZZMedia’s Stereogum blog included “The Grey Ship” on a compilation in January or February of this year. The final two lines struck me as having the same kind of energy as the Michael Andrews / Gary Jules version of Mad World (from the Donnie Darko soundtrack)(and I mean that as a compliment). Only later did I come to appreciate what was going on in the rest of the song. So I looked forward to the release of Past Life Martyred Saints for a good three months.
One of your mainstream reviewers pointed out that it’s a bit disturbing to find yourself humming the tune to “I wish that every time he touched me left a mark”. It is, but I do.
I’ve listened to the album the way I used to listen to new releases when I was a kid; over and over again. Love it.
hey i’m still listening to the record all the time, i’ve been really getting into it since the release. i’m really excited to see you in cambridge in july. if you need anything (food bar or recreation advice etc.) while in the boston area, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. either way i’ll see you at tt the bear’s, hopefully we can talk for a minute. love your music and recordings.

Dear Erika,
one question: is this California-Video full digital or is the background real Super 8-projection?
Like it very much!
Greetings from Hamburg (like to see you here, too),
Humbert
Hey! Saw you in Columbus, OH this past weekend. You drew me that ridiculous/rad alien, remember? Thanks for that and thanks for all the great music! Come back to Ohio soon. I think Cincinnati would also appreciate your sounds.

I love your music.
FANTASTIC cover of “Endless Nameless” for SPIN!!!!
Your CD is by far one of the best discoveries in the past couple of years music-wise. Just when you get disappointed with the recent lack of quality that new artists bring, there was your CD showing there’s still great music from new talents out there. Hope to see you tour Europe in the near future, your music has been getting excellent reviews from press and music enthousiasts alike here across the Atlantic!

You should come to Seattle, there’s a ton of venues here with good bands that will support you. Best wishes
will be there in like 4 days!
Hey, I’m a NYC transplant to Milan and don’t usually write messages (or anyway, not often enough, according to my mom). Just wanted to say that the reviews of yr record piqued my curiosity. One is never sure if things will live up to expectations but in this case, it really did, and more. After 40 years of listening to music, it’s nice to still find something that grabs me and won’t let go of the stereo; you’ve been on constant repeat for the last week or so. I spent today trawling around the internet, looking at videos, downloading (legally! I paid!) the Gowns album and generally being an obsessive fan. It was fun and you seem like a good person.
Anyway, thanks for the music. Come to Milan–the city is not all that but there’s a lot of good wine and I make a mean ragu.
I think I am coming! in november! thank you for your kind words and reaching out <3
That’s great! I’ll keep an eye out. I think the Euro promoters are generally more hospitable than in the US but if you need a place to crash, we’ve got two cats and room for 4 (possibly 5) people.
Picked up Past Life Martyred Saints LP at my local record shop Ditch. Absolutely loving it. In Vancouver to see you with Wild Beast tomorrow. Can’t wait!
Why no Chicago?! Saw u at Empty Bottle earlier this year……amazing.
You have a few days off between shows, schedule a last minute Chi show!
10-18 seems perfect. LOVE the album.
spring 2012?

I LOVE THIS! it’s like a 1967 review of a Doors show from somewhere in conservative Florida.
Pingback: EMA @ The Echoplex | LA Music Blog
Great show at Echoplex the other night. You should have played longer, especially since Wild Beasts took like an hour to come on after you guys. WTF? Anyway I love your music and your energy on stage and presence were really impressive! Such a fun show! Thanks.

Did anyone catch the “Space” episode of “Off the Air” on Adult Swim last weekend?
( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiXctpDJSkI starting about 15 seconds in…)
Whoever thought to pair the second half of “The Grey Ship” with the video of a toy robot blasting into space, followed by skydiving from low earth orbit (entering the atmosphere right at the climax with the 2/3/2/3/2/3/1 timing), was a genius.
And you have a new fan as a result.
i think i found you from urbanoutfitters download thing, milkman, and oh my GOD YOURE AWESOME. seriously.
and now knowing if youre from SD, if if you never make it to minneapolis for a show i’ll drive to SD to see your show.
so yeah, love ya! haha
Are you coming to Dallas anytime soon? A friend of mine just introduced me to your music and would love to catch a live show.
Hey, I’m just chiming in with everyone else about how much I love the album. And I do love it, so much so that I ranked it as my favorite album of the year in list I wrote for my university paper. Check it out if you have the chance, though I’m sure you’re exhausted at the thought of another rave review: http://gabriellebruney.wordpress.com/2011/12/17/top-10-albums-of-2011/
Thanks for being awesome,
Gabi
Excited to see you at Coachella, rock on!
