Swell Season performance, interview (Boing Boing)

Swell Season (Irish musician Glen Hansard and Czech singer and pianist Markéta Irglová) speak with Boing Boing's David Pescovitz, and perform an unreleased song for us during a US tour.

The musical duo's name comes from Hansard's favourite novel by Josef Škvorecký from 1975, of the same title.

@SpotlesssMind it looks like it might be the Canon EOS 5d Mark II or the 1D Mark I... the 5D M2 costs about 2500 bucks and the 1D M1 costs 5 grand and yes, their depth of field is amazing and the CMOS Sensor is large enough to use these puppies as documentary or short film cameras, that's why I'm saving money to get one for me!
