Confession– I miss Marcus.
There. I said it. It is out there. I miss Marcus. In a totes non-creepy way. Well, as non creepy as it can be coming from someone who blogs about him on a regular basis. And I am not alone you see. I broke down earlier yesterday and DMd Amber with my little confession– and you know what?? She misses him too! In a totally non-stalker way too.
I mean, let’s get something straight here. We had a hella time in El Lay– obvi– but it’s been so long since we’ve had a glimpse of Marcus. Until yesterday that is…the day of my birth. Coincidence?! Pfft. I think not. That was totally Mr. Foster’s way of saying Happy Birthday. #Duh
Ooorrrr maybe he was just drunk and got twit-pic’d by a friend.
Either way, it made me want more. So naturally I fired up my luvah, I mean my laptop and began my quest. My Marcus Quest if you will. And you know what I found?? Some kick ace vids of Marcus when he was in Italy!! Check it:
Of course, I have to add my fave song, You, My Love:
Demons:
Movement:
All vids were found on nonokob’s channel. There are a bunch more posted so be sure to check it out!
::sigh:: all bettah now.
How bout you? Are you missing Marcus? What are you doing in his “absence” to make it all better??
Mix Tape Mondays: This Week’s Featured Artist… Sarah Jaffe
featuring…

I discovered Sarah Jaffe on a sampler album from Austin City Limits, and I’ve been in love ever since. I wish Sarah had a bio or something cool I could post so I could learn more about her, but I seriously can’t find one. I did however find all these beautiful things other people said about her on her official site:
“Every once in a while, an opening act you’ve never heard of takes you by surprise and truly impresses. They start playing. And they’re good. Really good. You stop chatting up your friends and you fall in love with finding new music again.It was mesmerizing Sarah delivered smart, sensitive lyrics with elegant phrasing, beautifully restrained melodies and a very honest, soulful voice.” –BLABBERMOUTH
“Of Thursday’s all-Texan bill, opener Sarah Jaffe triumphed with folk music too robust and interesting to fit in the conventional singer-songwriter category. Her expressive lines are well-worn, but they’re drawn with a distinctly modern touch, and her smoky, blues-tinged voice is radiant with atmosphere and feeling.” – ORLANDO WEEKLY
“Jaffe’s hushed vocals and sharp lyrics were nicely punctuated by her band’s multiple multi-instrumentalists…It was hard not to feel completely embraced by Jaffe’s beautiful voice…She left the stage to a warm ovation, in turn leaving a warm feeling in our freezing Floridian bones.” –QRO MAGAZINE
More about Sarah, after the jump!
Saturday is a Good Day for Videos!
It’s Saturday. You’re relaxing, recovering from a long week for sure. What better to help with that relaxation then a video from each of the guys!! A little mini playlist to enjoy with your morning coffee and maybe a bagel. Oh, or a donut. Mmmmm…
First from Sam, one of my more recent faves, Lights (Fucking Lights)!
From Bobby, an older video, but love In the Frost! I just like how it looks like the recorded him playing on a sidewalk!!
And wrapping up your Saturday, some Marcus!! Way, Way, Way on the keyboard! Hells yes! (Plus, he drops the “f” bomb and I giggle!)
Yep, I like this. Videos may have to become a new Saturday tradition!!
Germany loves Bobby…and so do we!
Um. Yeah. Imma need someone to get me one of these. For serious.
Welcome back, all you crazy kids. For today’s stalk Bobby post show, we bring you German Bobby! As you may or may not know, Bobby is currently on his European tour, aka the Left to Lie tour, and Amber and I have taken a solemn vow to bring that tour to you!
Now you don’t have to search the couch cushions for change or “borrow” money from your kids college tuition fund to fly to Europe to see Mr. Long. Alls you gotta do is pull up a chair, fire up the ol’ interwebs and join us here at SoS. You can even wear your jammies. We won’t tell. Cause I might be in mine right now as I write this. But that is neither here nor there.
Today’s goodies were sent to us by the lovely Tanja, aka @_German_Girl_. She was so kind as to share with us not only her awesome pics from the show but also her videos!
Tanja has 14 vids in total from his show, so be sure to check them all out on her YouTube page!
And because we likes to looky at pics too….here’s a sample of Tanja’s photobucket album. There are over 100 pics so make sure you visit her album too!
A big ol’ hearty Vielen Dank to Tanja for sharing all of her pics and videos with us! 
If you could be at any of Bobby’s European shows, which would you pick?? I would have given anything to be at the Paris shows!
