Plants and Animals concert went down last night at Café Alt. Rolled with Kristin and Ming (Obviously. Is he ever not at a show?). Got this awesome shirt, which I am stealthily wearing at work, from a guy who confessed that he had done four hits of acid that day. Didn't surprise me. He was having trouble counting.
Aside from the stoned roady, the show was great. I was actually surprised at how small the crowd was. These guys were up for two Junos and the Polaris prize. Oh well. I like the small shows. Can't complain.
Also - Rediscovered Ratatat the other day. Awesome NYC electronic band. Here are a few of their singles for you to enjoy.

And for some reason, whenever I think of Ratatat I think of Ulrich Schnauss (probably because the same friend recommended both to me):

Comic wise:
Finally read the Green Arrow ("I mean what better or quicker way into the heart of any liberal than by telling him you're a fag?" - Ahhh Kevin Smith. It's so true.) and Green Lantern Rebirth series. Also chewed through some Identity Crisis. Infinity Crisis and then FINALLY, 52 (which I am SUPER stoked for because it is about Black Adam. *heart*).
