You're the type of person that someone can entrust their deepest worries and stories. I'm glad your friend benefited a lot from talking to you and vice versa. Hope to see ya then. would you like to see some of my art stuff when you're back?

I wonder what other people do/don't do that makes people NOT want to trust them with their deepest worries and stories.

not sure how I benefited, but it felt right, so i'm sure it did SOMETHING.

yes, will see you AND your art when I get back!

porkay bad nada?!?! was it not like the troubadour?!?!

[bisirhc]

cuz they f***ed up a couple of times, the bass man couldn't hit some of the notes, and they were overall not that into their older songs. it's pretty disappointing, cuz they seemed like they were there just to pretend to perform and to promote their new hit See These Bones. not good times.

weird! their concert back in Feb in SF was awesome! their energy was way up there, they kept on going how SF is the best city to perform in over and over and bass man was chain smoking but funny as hell

aww boo i sorry it was bad :( maybe they tired of touring or something

yessssss
I seem to have them a lot less frequently than before...

yes, Nada Surf DOES have good music and I've been to 3 of their concerts before and honestly, they've just gone doooowwwwnnn. sold out, as indie kids say.

Blonde Rehead is also good but...I think they just weren't into the venue they were performing in because it was kind of like a lecture hall, better suited for orchestra concerts and not so much rock.

Stars are so so so so good. I didn't like their latest album at first but after that concert, I LOVED it! LOVE!
