casper.jpgHeather McIntosh has been busy touring with Lil Wayne, but took the time to mention on her MySpace blog that her music as The Instruments is featured in the new documentary Examined Life, which will be playing in exclusive engagements starting this month.  In her blog post she has posted some dates and cities where the film will be airing.

Earlier this week Southern Shelter posted the 40 Watt Olivia Tremor Control reunion performance from April 15th, 2005 – their first show in five years, and the kickoff to what was a fantastic tour.  You can get the MP3s and FLAC here.  Thanks to lou2ser for the link.
