holocene
from bon iver posted in music by ratsnamgod
Track 3 from the album Bon Iver, Bon Iver.
Justin Vernon: "Holocene is a bar in Portland, Ore., but it's also the name of a geologic era, an epoch if you will. It's a good example of how all the songs are all meant to come together as this idea that places are times and people are places and times are... people? [Laughs.] They can all be different and the same at the same time. Most of our lives feel like these epochs. That's kind of what that song's about. 'Once I knew I was not magnificent.' Our lives feel like these epochs, but really we are dust in the wind. But I think there's a significance in that insignificance that I was trying to look at in that song."
Alex Bertolucci: "It's a fun place to go dancing and hang out with your friends. They have good drinks but it can take a while to get one. The vibe is a good one. The atmosphere is OK but nothing spectacular. A fun club"

The inspiration for the once untitled 10th track on In the Aeroplane Over the Sea.
The band would visit this collection of arcade oddities when touring the Bay Area. On one visit, Jeff Mangum encountered a young girl who resembled the object of his obsession, Anne Frank.
The museum has moved from its Cliff House location that NMH visited to its current location in the Fisherman’s Wharf district.

In his track "Lie4", Danny Brown makes several false claims about his financial status. He suggests that he has large amounts of cash in denominations of fifty & one hundred dollar bills. He purports be in a romantic relationship with a fashion model and that he employs servants at his home. He also claims to dine at one of Detroit's finest restaurants, The Whitney.

"The bottleneck is a shit show"
From the song "Walcott"
The Bourne Bridge & the Sagamore Bridge are the only roadway passages from mainland Massachusetts to Cape Cod. So, traffic can get a bit hectic here during vacation season.
