Okay. Last night was interesting. I was going to stay with Sam after the show at Gilman, but he ended up getting stuck in Benecia, so I got a ride back to my house from Joe the sound guy. I trained to work in the Stoar last night with Chloe. We had to sell fekkin' bEASTfest merch in the stoar. Fekkin' overpriced bullshit. Nobody bought anything from them, though. Possibly 'cause there was a little drawing of a guy flipping the bird and saying 'Fuck BeastFest' with a little addendum reading 'Sucking the missile cock since inception!' right next to their display. *cough* Who would do such a thing... The bands were good. My first time seeing Pitch Black, who weren't half bad. Eskapo was good, The Cost was good. The Suicide Kings were...uh...well, at least they were better than Ben's spoken word. I'll stop there.
Going again tonight. Gee, how shocking. This Is My Fist! is playing, and I've never heard them before, but I hear they're good.
Went to SF today. Weather was scary. 60+ mile an hour winds. I was actually getting blown around. I left when I hear they might be topping at 75 mph.
So now I'm just killing time at Elodie 'til I go down to Gilman. Might be staying there again tonight. Ugh.
Finished Snow Crash, finally. It really is a hacker's wet dream, but a damn funny/cool book nonetheless. I'm supposed to read Catch 22 next.
Anyhow...
