That's when time draws a line down to your very soul

I am not really here, because things continue to be INSANE at work, but I just wanted to stop in for a quick EEEEEEE that I get to see David Cook tonight, EEEEEEE, and then tomorrow I'm making a kamikaze drive to Portland and back to see Jeffrey Foucault with sadiane and me_maneuver, EEEEEE, and also THE HEADSTONES ARE PLAYING IN VANCOUVER ON DECEMBER 27 HOLY SHIT ARE YOU SERIOUS, LIFE? At THE MOTHERFUCKING COMMODORE.

So here's the thing. Almost exactly four years ago, I met troyswann for the first time, in Vancouver, and I fell in love with her immediately, and we spent a Weekend of Win wandering around Vancouver talking and giggling and eating and drinking and meeting Bruce McDonald and getting lost, and we paid 25 bucks to get into the Commodore for some shitty band from New York, New York DJ, just to be IN THE COMMODORE, and we danced and decided not to lick the stage because you'd have to a lick for a long time to get back to when the Headstones last played there, and we were happy to be there but SO SAD to have missed that time, when the Headstones were a band. Because THIS BAND DID NOT EXIST. THIS WAS AN EX-BAND. FOR A REALLY LONG TIME. And now they're playing at the COMMODORE and I (hopefully) GET TO GO and I can just fucking GET IN MY CAR AND DRIVE TO SEE THE HEADSTONES, I can't even.

I know I've said this a million times before, but. I just wanted them to get back together, just once, even if I didn't get to go. And then I got to go in February and it was (aside from the absence of some fangirls I really wish could have been there) PERFECT and literally, non-hyperbolically changed my life, as ridiculous as that may sound. And so I was FINE with missing this year's shows, because I had had my time, you know? And now they're coming to Vancouver and it is the latest in a long list of things that I never thought would happen with this band, and I am gleeful ALL OVER AGAIN. I mean, seriously, aside from sleeping with all of them, MY HEADSTONES WISHLIST IS CHECKED OFF, OKAY. I... am not sure I'm ever going to entirely get over the joy of this.

ALSO, I think I told everyone who would care, but just in case: the presale for this starts tomorrow (Wednesday) at 10 a.m.; presale code is apparently Energy. Just in case anyone needs it!

So yeah. That's all gonna get me through the work day today.

And here, have some Headstones songs, if you're curious as to what I'm flailing about. ♥

i am a sad sad fangirl, sharing is caring, jeffrey foucault, fans are awesome, and the anthemic, david cook was created in a lab, canada which i dig, music, headstones
