Bon Iver : Calgary

[macker]

Bon Iver has a new cd comming out and the tracklisting has a song "Calgary" Anyone know the storey/lyrics behind this song? Anyone seen him in concert here? What is the release date as I have heard May 20th and June 20th?

From Bangkok to Calgary give me your best Calgarycentric song?

Apparently the song is about our Calgary. But he hasn't been here, it's what's in his imagination about the city - or something like that.

So now that he has made the song, come play Calgary, haha.

“Calgary is still a place I’ve never been, and I think that’s important. … I dreamt that place,” he says. “[The song is a] metaphor for my fascination.”

If he ever writes a song about his nightmares, it will be called "Edmonton".

I know Calgary is nice and all, but who dreams about Calgary? Honestly?
