Haha. He is lovely. I couldn't make it to this show (sad) but I still need to put up pics from his last show at Bimbo's.

This show was some kind of amazing. I once had a German teacher who said the ultimate measure of a person's mastery of a foreign tongue was the ability to joke in that new language. Jens Lekman is one funny mo'fucka in English, and it was just plain delightful listening to him talk. I especially liked when he told a story about Italians in Florence admonishing him for saying nice things about Florence and followed it up by telling the crowd at Bimbo's that he wouldn't say anything nice about San Francisco. "Fuck San Francisco," he said. "This next song is for Oakland." "You Are the Light" ensued. Just beautiful.
