 20050210 Independent Music Awards
Upon hearing that Sufjan Stevens had suddenly joined the Independent Music Awards lineup, I rushed to get tickets last night. The show was stacked with the likes of RJD2, Aesop Rock, and Ted Leo and the Pharmacists. I left most impressed with Saul Williams, whose track Coded Language knocked me off my feet.
Sufjan only played two songs. And, although he was poignant, the crowd chattered through his set and was sadly not interested in his ballad offerings. I still sang along, and I even remembered to take a picture. |

 Hi, I'm Zach. I grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana and graduated from Wake Forest. After college, I moved to Manhattan to get serious about a company I ran with friends. We sold it to Barry Diller's InterActiveCorp in 2006. I just wrapped up with a project I co-founded called Vimeo and left CV to focus on being a twenty-five year old. I have another blog called Copy and Taste, where I post about learning to cook. I live in Brooklyn now.
