Been a long time since I rock n rolled... um actually no it hasn't. I rocked and rolled my ass off last night. Two shows (played one) (watched another). Both were great. Saw the Advantage and if you haven't, you really should. The Teeth, Verktum, Birdwing, Totimoshi... all rocked. Verktum is defiantly on my top 10 band list.... hmm, so who are the other nine? I refuse to let sleeping dogs lie, so Activated Peat is still my number one. Then in no particular order, The Debutantes, Logos, Or Best Offer, Red Nails, Alpha Betty, Second Story Man (still adjusting to the new line up, but they were defiantly working with it well last time I saw them) Birdwing made my top ten as of last night. Best set I've ever seen them play, hands down. I really want to add Ayin, but being the loser I am I haven't actually SEEN them yet. So I have to hold off on that one. Valley of Ashes, The Touched. Wait I can't forget the Vibrolas... I'll have to make it 11 I guess. Top Ten (+1) Louisville Bands, Biiiiatch! I hope I didn't leave anyone out. Why am I writing like such a jackass tonight?
I've been reading these girls journals.... I think they've reverted me to my middle school self. These girls, they're that catty, backstabbing type that give real women a bad name, you know the ones.... anyway, they talked shit about me in thier journals and I saw it and went all Jerry Springer on them via email... this has been a while back... anyway, when one of them found out I was in Venus Trap she started kissing my ass. Then I find out they have hopes to start a band. They already call themselves by the band's name and it's not even formed. I hate girls sometimes.
Anyway, enough with the bitterness. You know, I saw Aaron last night and I miss him so much. But it just isn't appropriate for me to say that to him. But we really got each other as far as bitterness went. The downside is although we saw the shit of the world and called it what it was, it was a terrible mindset to be in and we just fed off one another. But I miss other things too. We had so much fun together and it was so comfortable, like mind reading at times. I never looked at him, the way I do most people, and thought "who the fuck is this person." But it's kind of scary to know someone that well. He got me in a way no one else ever has or will. I wish we could be as close as we were but a failed three year relationship seems to make that impossible.
Anyway, Venus Trap rocked MY snatch last night. The energy was perfect, the crowd was accomodating. Salena work her Shalenana... Miranda sassed her frass. Jamie's spells were cast with every beat of her sticks. I loved that show. I was so nervous before we started. When am I going to let those nerves go? It's funny. I'm nervous before we start, then if it's a good night, I get into the music and I'm ok. But as soon as the show's over.... I'm shaking and weak kneed... the after set moments are without a doubt the most nerve racking for me. Weird huh? It'd been so long since we'd played. I can't wait to play with Ayin, if it pans out.
Mike called tonight. He said he's coming weekend after next. I'll believe it when I see it. I'm kind of nervous about seeing him. It's been so long, and that was a very crazy time in my life.... plus I've got someone really special in my life and I don't want to fuck that up. Mike has this way of hypnotizing me... or at least he used to. He's so sly, and he doesn't even try. He hasn't changed much either. He was talking about how his neighbor who works at Wendy's brings him home food everyday. I said "People ALWAYS give you stuff" He was like "I know. Do I seem needy or something? You know, EVERYTHING in my apartment is something someone gave me since I got out. I haven't had to buy one thing." I wish that boy would use his powers for something earth shattering. Er... maybe I don't.
Timothy and I are going to a cabin in the Smoky Mountains for the weekend. Hot tub, jacuzzi, fireplace, pool table, mountain view... uh huh huh. I'm super excited. It's going to be hella tight yo. (It's funny. I would NEVER say hella tight, but I always use it on the internet. My internet personality ranges from sassy intellectual to weirdo cryptic girl to gangsta bitch.)
I should really be going now.
