Friend of Unfair Park Bill Holston, author of the Veterans Day essay to which we linked earlier this month, was kind enough to forward our way this mini-doc about Sarah Jaffe, winner of multiple Dallas Observer Music Awards in July. As photographer Allison V. Smith notes on her blog, it was made by the same high-school students responsible for the short about Holston's son Fred earlier this year. --Robert Wilonsky

1986? Yowsah. My dream of going out Hendrix/Cobain/Morrison/Drake style at 27 is slowly fading. I'm going to go play the most awesome version of CFDAG you've ever heard, then fail to come up with anything to say.

But, seriously, good for her. I saw her open for Okkervill River and Black Joe Lewis awhile back. Awesome show.

You know, the City of Denton really needs to repaint that water tank. Looks like it hasn't been painted since I was a student there 30 years ago.

Oh, and Sarah is cool, too.

Sarah Jaffe is so fucking brilliant. I miss her something fierce.

(I miss the Amazing Fred and the Amazing Bill also, for that matter...)

If they repaint the water tower, I hope they at least paint it the same colors/design... I immediately recognized it even though it's probably been at least 4-5 years since I last saw it.
