AM/FM, the Princess, and assorted shit
Saw AM/FM Friday at the Holiday Inn. They sounded good, and they got a nice crowd. I didn't make it back Saturday to catch the show, because I was busy trying to keep beer in my cup at the Princess re-opening.
Saw lots of folks, too. The place was packed with emo kids early, but I spent time with Charley, Matt R., Alec, Sonja, Tammy, Duckie, Wade, Will, Dru, Lu, and a bunch of other people. Saw Brandon briefly and said hello, but I was on my way out to get another pack of smokes and when I got back not 8 minutes later, I couldn't find him, so I don't think he stuck around. The West Point Boys (Chase, Josh, and Jason) were out and about, and I saw Josh, and Matt M. Skip was there, and so was Steve, K.K., and I'm sure there's more and I'm just not remembering. I felt a bit nostalgic a couple of times.
It went pretty well, I thought. Talked with one of the guys about the possibility of doing karaoke, and he seemed open to it, so I guess we'll see. Alec mentioned it for me, since I'm kinda shy, as I'm sure most of you know. Some of the bands yesterday were good, some not so good. Matt R. made his debut, and I was pleasantly surprised that he was playing classical. Some of the bands were bad, though. Luckily, I don't know which names go to which bands, so all I can say is that one band seemed to be populated by pissed off epileptics who forgot to take their medication. But they were enthusiastic, so I had to give them props for that. They did inspire the first use of ear protection for the evening, although I used it off and on all night depending on where I was.
Monday night there's a group called “Whole Wheat Bread” that I'm going to check out. Something about black punk rockers is kind of interesting.
I think I'm going to pass by Amanda's going-away party later this afternoon that Laura invited me to. I don't like it when people leave, though. It sucks.
I'm also trying out this new publishing software that's supposed to connect into blogger. Basically I manage the blog from a desktop application and it's got some cool features that make publishing easier.
