Andrew Bird: What's Up With That?
Every Web site that involves music in any way always seems to suggest Andrew Bird to me. Any anonymous site member with music in common with me, always seems to have Andrew Bird in their list.
Does anyone listen to Andrew Bird? What’s he like? I noticed Hutch does NOT have it in his collection.

Really weird that you mentioned this. Bizarrely weird. Cause I have it at work and it just came on one of my genius lists. I three starred it.
I have one of his albums, the one with Imitosis on it.
yeah i have a few of his things. evan w was WAYYYYY into him and used to give me records. he’s from chi. he plays a lot of instruments. and it’s pretty, especially when he plays the mandolin and whistles. you’d be into it.
I was really into him for a while, too. He’s got a few really great songs.
Rod and me saw him live. I thought it was good, but Rod thought he sucked.
Rod sucks, too, though, so you gotta compensate for that…
He’s one of those artists I enjoy listening to while I’m doing so, because I feel like I SHOULD enjoy listening to him because it’s all creative and inventive and what have you. But within a minute of turning it off I can’t really even recall what I just listened to. There’s not a lot to grab on to and run with.

This has pretty much been my exact experience so far. I’m going to listen today and see if that changes.
Paris, want me to upload the album I have here at work?
I’ve got three of his albums. He’s got a couple of songs that I really like (Masterfade is great), but I rarely notice if the rest of his stuff pops up on shuffle. It sorta blurs together into a congealed mass of violins, finger-picking, and quavering singing.
Sure, I’ll take an album for a test drive.
