Tonight I saw Proximity Grey in Saline.
In the middle of a fucking baseball field.
Not kidding.
Why they booked this gig,
I don't know.
And why they thought this was a good idea?
I really don't know.
The opening act was the winner of the "Sidewalk Sale Talent Show"
It was this little girl who did dance routines,
complete with pushy stage mother and everything.
I was trying my best to keep a straight face,
but then Hot Kyle had to come sit next to me,
and whisper "She's better than most of the bands we play with".
And I lost it.
And pushy stage mom gave me the death glare.
The show was alright,
Despite massive technical difficulties.
All ten of us that were there still enjoyed it.
Hot Kyle said they were going to change the name of the band to "technical difficuly"
You couldn't hear Adam at all.
At one point, in the middle of a song, half the stage lost power,
rendering Dan and Kyle completely useless.
Eventually, they said fuck it,
and Adam and Hot Kyle just took turns doing acoustic covers solo.
It was kinda neat.
I talked to Chad a little afterwards.
Then Tim walked over to say hi and we talked a little.
That was weird.
Yeah.
And now, more Zach Braff. Just because he's the shit.
"Just so you all know, your government doesn't believe a 16 year old should hear the word "fuck" more than twice in a 2 hour period. The second you say "fuck" twice in a movie your film becomes "R". No exceptions. Pretty crazy, huh? You can blow someone's head off, but 2 fucks makes you unwatchable for someone under 17. Unless they have their parent there to explain it to them. "Mom, I understood the first use of the word fuck, but what's with the second - give me guidance please. I've heard one fuck before, but ever since I heard the second one I've had this insatiable desire to rob a liquor store and refer to all women as "ho's"."
