Cause its running you with red

I gave blood earlier today, so I can't think of any music more appropriate to mark the occasion than "Blood Bank" by Bon Iver.  The video below is from the sunrise show they played at a cemetery in California.  I don't think a time, setting, and band could ever mesh better than that.  Bon Iver's music is haunting, raw, and intimate.  This is heart directly on sleeve kind of music.  If "Blood Bank" doesn't convince you.  Check out "Re: Stacks", "Flume", and especially "Skinny Love" from the same show.  Watching the footage from the concert leads me to believe that more shows should be held at sunrise.  Why should dusk get to be the only magic hour?
