EAT! MEAT!

Jul 02, 2006 21:00

Yesterday I went to the EAT! MEAT! indoor BBQ in Billerica featuring Ship High In Transit and BeaglePuss. S.H.I.T. was great and I had never seen BeaglePuss live and it turns out they are fucking insaine. Amazing show and a great time! Sorry all you youngins couldn't go but S.H.I.T. has another 18+ show coming up in a few weeks that should be pretty kick ass yo.

After the show I was pressured into going to an after party. Despite having to work this morning at 10am I agreed to go and I'm glad I did because I had a pretty swell time. Now, should you happen to go to a party after a show of musical nature and there happen to be guitars lying around, sooner or later someone is going to pick one up and start playing. So around 1:30 am we started getting them in tune...I may not be at all experienced in guitar and I don't have too many songs in my fingers but those that I do I can play alright so I held my own with the professionals. My favorite song to play since it's dead easy would be Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea and it just so happened that someone else actually knows the chords and lyrics as well so I played a duet and it was sweet. I would have kept on playing way into the night but it turned out it was already well into today... and when someone declared it was 3am I ran for the door because damn it, I had to fucking work in a few hours. Why must the good times always come to an end so soon?

What? You've never heard of Neutral Milk Hotel? Here's the lyrics... take 'em home, chew on them. Enjoy!

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun
What a beautiful dream
That could flash on the screen
In a blink of an eye and be gone from me
Soft and sweet
Let me hold it close and keep it here with me

And one day we will die
And our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea
But for now we are young
Let us lay in the sun
And count every beautiful thing we can see
Love to be
In the arms of all I'm keeping here with me

What a curious life we have found here tonight
There is music that sounds from the street
There are lights in the clouds
Anna's ghost all around
Hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me
Soft and sweet
How the notes all bend and reach above the trees

Now how I remember you
How I would push my fingers through
Your mouth to make those muscles move
That made your voice so smooth and sweet
And now we keep where we don't know
All secrets sleep in winter clothes
With one you loved so long ago
Now he don't even know his name

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun
And when we meet on a cloud
I'll be laughing out loud
I'll be laughing with everyone I see
Can't believe how strange it is to be anything at all
