So the security at Clowes Hall (aka Clueless Hall) ("Clowes" is pronounced "Clues" for those who don't know) was being really pissy at the concert the other night, and not letting people take photos or anything, even though a) the tickets didn't say "no photos" (the ones for Mary Oliver, at the same venue, DO say that right on them) and b) the ( Read more... )

Just the setlist and quick notes for now ... I will probably post a more complete review tomorrow! (xposted from indigogirlsSetlist ( Read more... )

Good:

1. Despite Our Differences finally came today. Yippee!
2. Today is my late shift on the reference desk, so I went in to work at 10:15, worked till 2:15, then came home for my "dinner" break. So I get to hang out at home listening to music and stuff until, say, about 5:30.

(I know. It goes ( Read more... )

Just got a concert call (emilyevangelist, that was you, yes?), but you know how it sounds when streaming audio on a website rebuffers every two seconds? It was doing something like that. I couldn't even quite make out what song it was, hard as I sat here trying. ARGH! Sometimes I hate technology ( Read more... )

ahhhhhhhhh... I love me some "Virginia Woolf". Thanks Spike! :D

SNL is making my brain explode.
