Poor Bird

At last night's Chicago performance at the Civic Opera House, Andrew Bird unfortunately dropped and split his favorite violin, which he's had since he was 15, in two. Major bummer. Read more about it, here. Anyway, here's a pretty good clip of the Handsome Family cover, "The Giant Of Illinois." The new release, Noble Beast, is out now via Fat Possum.
