Sufjan Stevens

is it more or less obsessed to be honest about your self obsession?
Or, how much ironizing is required to distance yourself from sentiment,
poorly played out silliness and triumphant dorkiness, the last three
of which were so abundantly present in the performance of Sufjan
Stevens and his curious 'band" a combination of Paul Simon and a
university pep squad. What a bad idea. An horns too (trombone and
trumpet, as well as the knotty little hairdo of one of the girl guitarists).
