pugs show at ella st. on thursday. we kicked ass. we hadn't practiced at all for it, except for a shabby run-through before we loaded up. we thought we were gonna suck, but we did not. i used ky's little vox practice amp because my vox ac15 is still laid up, had the sound guy mic it and it sounded surprisingly good! martyn and jesse from the minders (jesse is also the ex-drummer of the shins) came out and saw us too. man, what good bandmates of mayhaw's! the show wasn't TOO real nights, but still, they definitely didn't need to come to our crappy little show. but i'm glad they saw us play well. they're super nice dudes. martyn and i talked guitar stuff. jesse said that we sounded like TMBG and dead milkmen, the latter of which i thought was a cool comparison. gus and joe also came and we all hung out and had some beers (not mayhaw and ky though because there were no NAs sadly).
so that was fun. not too much else exciting stuff happening other than that. i'm doing some mastering and possibly mixing for the silent numbers. weee. i've been on the diet wagon again and lost 4(!) pounds in the past six days. whoa! and it's not like i've been starving myself or anything. just not eating and drinking like a pig.
today alyssa and i are going to her parents' house for a BBQ.
what's a yaw?
