Come with me (again) if you want to live.

-- The Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger), Terminator 2: Judgement Day

More good music for you to join in on. Faryl's coming, anyone else on board?

Uh Huh Her
Avalon, Hollywood, CA
Friday, November 14th
8:00p
$20

Also, Missy Higgins, my very favoritest (for right now) artist is playing on Sunday, November 9th. The only problem is that it's all the way down in Anaheim. As a result, I'll only get tickets if I can get someone to go with me. I'll need someone to help me stay awake on the drive back. I don't have ticket prices or a time yet, but I'm going to guess about $30 and 8:00p, respectively.

I am so hoping someone wants to go so that I can rationalize the drive to the part of my brain that says Monday will suuuuck. But the show would absolutely be worth it! Any takers? Pretty please?!

I know better not to be friends with boys with girlfriends

Oh, I know better than that
I know better
You'll play the victim and I'll be the bad guy
-- Boys with Girlfriends, by Meiko

Firstly: AMEN, Meiko. Most of you know what I mean. So there's that.

Now, I owe you pictures from the Meiko concert that Mush and I attended last week.

(Click here for larger images)

It was a fairly awesome night, and there were a few firsts for me:

- First time I ever stood for a concert. I don't think my lower back has forgiven me yet.
- First time I've ever been thisclose to the stage. We were literally at the front; I could only have gotten closer if I were the camera guy who showed up in the middle of the set, stepped all over us and spilled alcohol everywhere.
- First time I ever heard Mush say anything so sentimental as, "I felt him in my heart." That will make me laugh for the rest of my life.
- First time I ever heard of someone being schocked by a Shirley Temple. Mush was at the bar ordering us out Temples, and the guy next to her looks over and says, astounded, "What's that?!" Such a concoction, that deliciously red substance! What ever could that be, and how quickly will it make me intoxicated beyond legal and logical limits?
- NOT the first time I've wanted to punch someone in the nose for getting their enthusiasm all over me. To the chick who felt it was acceptable to touch me for an extended period of time: I understand being "moved" by the music. Just ... be moved in your own personal space and leave mine alone. Kthxbye.

And just think, Mush and I get to do it all over again next week. Rock on!
