More from Justin Vernon's La Blog session, friends. The first spate of Take Aways was about as great as you'd expect when combining the series' cinematic stylings and Vernon's wounded croons (I especially enjoyed Vincent orbiting Justin and the other two Ivers during the reconstructed "Lump Sum"). Our friends at La Blogothèque, which is French for The Blogotheque, have posted Part 2 of their testament to Bon Iver's trip to Paris, switching the scene to an intimate apartment party in Montmartre. First up is a second take of "Flume" (which starts with Justin tease-covering the great "Olive Hearts" by old tourmates and fellow purveyors of earthen folk greatness, Bowerbirds) and then "Wolves (Acts I & II)" (always a crowd pleaser, always better live than on For Emma). But best of all is the set-closing "Skinny Love": Vincent takes the vantage point behind Justin, facing the party-goers, and for a few minutes we get to see what he sees every night -- a roomful of eyes lit up, drinking all they can about the guy.
