broken social scene presents kevin drew was pretty fabulous monday night. there is something very comforting about seeing someone wearing your favourite band's tshirt when you are living in a different country. even more comforting when the person wearing said shirt is the singer from one of your other favourite bands.

hahha awesome. This is still the best line ever [I remember you saying it when it actually happened]:

man, if back in 1997 i knew i'd be partying in my apartment with one of the dudes from treble charger 16 year old me would be pretty impressed with 24 year old me.

And funny that bill priddle is touring with them. j ripped 'maybe it's me' last week and it was like 'aww remember when treble charger were GOOD' hahaha. oh, 1990s canadian indie...

and boo to being internerdless!

xoxox.

red was a good song. and after wikipedia-ing bill priddle to make sure i spelled his name right i discovered he wrote it! go figure.

i am eating lunch out just so i can go online. i'm a big loser.

[crushileptic]

Just kidding.

[onthesneak]

I have that Constantines shirt too, which has slowly faded over the course of many washings and now looks like it could be a Hypercolour shirt from the 80s. The end.

Funny, I was talking about those t-shirts the other day. I used to work with a guy back in the day who turned up at the office wearing an off-pink t-shirt with large yellow blotches at the armpits. We laughed and asked him if it it was one of those old 'Hypercolours' and the utterly gross and smelly thing is, it wasn't. Bleh.

ewww.

[onthesneak]

yay constantines!
boo hypercolour!

It was a great gig, wasn't it? I loved the singalong at the end and my ears were ringing for 24 hours!

Glad you loved Battles. I kind of thought you would...I thought they were f*ckin' incredible and would love to see them again. What did you think of the support band? I just bought their album 'Rise Above' and I suspect it might be a classic.

Cool Bill Priddle pic too. He hasn't changed much, has he?

[onthesneak]

MINE TOO. i got home and my ears had this crazy buzz. i never get ringing in my ears and i complained about it for a good hour.

they were so amazing. i wish i had gotten up closer cause the crowd was semi-lame. i only caught the last song and a half of the opening band cause i got into edinburgh a bit late. i couldn't decide if i really liked them or what. what are they called anyway?

he really hasn't changed at all. that's exactly what he looked like back in the treble charger days too. i think.

[uniquefergus]

If my information's correct, they were
'The Dirty Projectors'

A lame crowd? In EDINBURGH? Surely not ;-)

[onthesneak]

unheard of i tell you!

i just downloaded that album now [and i'm amazed at the speed at a cafe!] so i will give it a listen when i get home.
