I am dating a lovely girl named Shannon. She makes me want to be a better human being. Last night we saw The Stills play the Prospect Park Bandshell, supported by Malajube and Sam Roberts [even more energetic than The Stills

Oldboy is so... raw, not unlike the octopus. It's one of those movies that does its job so well that it's a bit hard to watch.

I've already discussed American Splendor with you, but it's definitely a personal favorite of mine.

[ipsenaut]

When I saw that Quentin Tarantino demand that Oldboy be given the Palme d'Or, it made so many kinds of sense. I could imagine him getting pretty heated about it, too.

All of these things are awesome. (Especially the lady/mom points).

I ADORED Oldboy. I'm not sure I've seen a movie since that I so immediately clicked with. When I later read reviews of it, and saw negative reviews, I simply couldn't wrap my brain around it. Like, what could possibly motivate someone to dislike that movie? Nards to that.

I know of a Korean restaurant in LA that serves live octopus. I MAY do that in the future.

[ipsenaut]

Oh also I saw The Stills and Sam Roberts Band and Malajube. With the lady. And my best friend did the lighting for it.

How awesome? How friggin' awesome?

oh, you went to the prospect park celebrate brooklyn concert last night?
haha, i'm such a stalker.

i was going to go to prospect park last night! but i decided to bum around queens for a change. partially because the few shows i went to last summer were not very enjoyable.

everything sounds excellent. :) since when are you ever at penn station?

[ipsenaut]

since I go to the city.

since when do you make accusatory comments?
since when are you ever in queens?
since when would you like to ride bikes?

[brainstem]

how in the world was that accusatory!

[ipsenaut]

"since when are you in penn station?"

i was a hermit when we began talking, but no more!

Sam Roberts is great live. I'm a little surprised they were on that side of the border so close to July 1st, though. They're usually playing something big here, on Canada Day.

[ipsenaut]

The show was Canaday Day-themed, actually. Then again, if I'm reading their website correctly, they spent a few days stateside-- their next Canada show isn't until the fifteenth.

[crapjournal]

Well-- that makes me feel a little bit better actually. At least it was celebrated, haha. It's not that I was worried they forgot about us, or anything, it's just that they're usually so religious about it.

oh man i was there too- it was such a perfect night

i was kind of impressed with sam roberts. he reminded me of gael garcia bernal.

[ipsenaut]

Oh, yeah, it really was wonderful. If I could change one thing I might want there to have been some standing room instead of the first few rows of chairs, but in the end I was happy on the lawn anyway.

[_killingmoon]

yeah that was kinda wack, not what i was expecting. but i managed to get some seats in the front row.

the raspberry mocha frappucinos were fucking fantastic, though.
