· 3 pulledIf you haven't done it yet, I strongly suggest that you set aside some time and read our man Chris DeVille's report from Modest Mouse's Ice Cream Floats concert cruise.
It gets into all kinds of fascinating subjects of study — what it means to be an idiosyncratic aging artist with a serious fan base, the slow-creep way that indie rock has transformed into lifestyle music, the reason that the cruise couldn't go to Alaska as Isaac Brock originally wanted.
As it happens, I'm about to make my own cross-country trip to see Modest Mouse live.
