The Northwest Passage Festival starts tonight here in SF. I'm not sure if I'll make it out to see Maja RAtkje and Arve Henriksen tonignt, but I'm definitely going to Supersilent and Jaga Jazzist tomorrow. If anyone else is thinking of going, it looks like I'll have an extra ticket as my wife is sick and is not so inclined to Attend. Let me know.
