just got back from seeing three awesome bands playing. the first band sixparsseven were really, really good and i didn't know they were even going to play. they had this (person that has those mallet thingies and hits those key thingies) person in the band who reminded me of vincent gallo for some reason. i don't know why since he didn't look like he was bludgeoned with an ugly stick. lol. in a way more like nickolai from the strokes though.
the second band apollo heights were good also. i didn't like the singing but the instrumentation was so good and energetic. they had lots of nice sample/keyboard/loops stuff which was nice. and the bass player was so freaking cute. he had one of those floppy pie hats i think they are called and his demeanor or something was just so interesting or something. i could't stop looking at him. in a way he reminded me of slash because he kind of had dreadlockish hair. i got a pic of the band and him i think.
the third band tv on the radio were really good too. this one song they had a techno beat going and it was so good.
i got two cd's from the show. one from six parts seven and tv on the radio. i'm really glad i went. at first when i got there i was uncomfortable and awkward but got over that and really enjoyed myself. this paxil stuff is really working. and i took pics of two of the bands, some of the streets outside, and some of the buildings. whoooh
oh and the best part was that when i was getting ready to leave my mother hit our neighbors car with hers. haha. she must have been backing out of a driveway to turn around and hit it right in the middle. i was leaving right then and didn't even get to ask about it but just saw what happened and saw a cop car there. i just waved to her while i went by. she seemed a bit busy. haha
