From the July 28th show at the Troubadour.

S+B

So Beck has been doing a lot this year, but one thing I can say he has done very well is the production on Mirror Traffic by Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks. The album came out August 23rd, and it's definitely one of my favorite albums right now. The sound is great, the lyrics are very good and it doesn't lose you near the end at all like many albums do. I really hope they collaborate again sometime.

Beck does Gainsbourg

Got to see the amazing Serge Gainsbourg tribute at the Hollywood Bowl last Sunday. Saw Beck and many wonderful talents perform songs by Serge Gainsbourg. Here's Beck performing Teenie-Weenie Boppie.
