So far, it has been a great week.
and lucky for you it has been
DOCUMENTED!!! Michael's birthday week was pretty fun. They were some of the best parties I've been to in a while. The best part was the fact that it was celebrated three times, in three different places, with three different groups of people.
Shallow Palace's show at New Brookland Tavern on tuesday was quite a blast. We played with Jukebox the Ghost, Brother Sister, and The Wintersounds.
Jukebox the Ghost was fucking great. It was refreshing to play with bands I actually like watching and listening to. Once we went on stage, I realized just how small that stage was. We played pretty sloppy, but it was fun. Always good to rock out with my friends.
On Wednesday, I went to Charlotte to work the Flaming Lips show at Amos' Southend. We arrived early so we went downtown and hung around some of the bars and big buildings. We discovered Phil's the "hottest staffed bar in town". After that we saw Birds of Avalon and The Flaming Lips. The Lips were out of this world. Everything about their show was brilliant. The songs, the way they were played, the props, the lights, the players, the crowd involvement, the equipment, the energy. It was such a positive and strong experience. I was overly impressed and honored to be there.
Maybe we can stop moving foward and start moving in L-shapes.
