Check out this nice acoustic video from Steve Kimock’s new Kimock’s Korner blog:
Steve Kimock – Regal Squareneck Acoustic from the Barn – # 1 from kimockskorner on Vimeo.

Let’s say you’re a huge fan of Animal Collective, and you think they’re the bees knees. Then someone posts a link on Twitter that causes you to stumble upon a steel drum band doing a flawless interpretation of the song “Brother Sport,” and chills get sent down your spine.
